As one of the leading countries of the Non-Aligned Movement, founded in 1961, Yugoslavia formally did not belong to any block. The Yugoslav government launched accelerated modernization and construction, with the main goal of economic development, promotion of the lives of the citizens and the affirmation of the diversity of cultures in the region.The country has expanded these efforts beyond the borders of the country, promoting urbanism and construction in developing countries, especially in non-aligned countries in Africa and the Middle East.
