Not to my knowledge, since at least 1900 - no famine in Yugoslavia. There were problems getting food during the wars, but that is normal for any place struck by war.

Bulgaria has never occupied Greece it was the other way round during the Byzantium invasion in Bulgaria that lasted 200 years. Just for the record.

Byzantium is just an expression for the eastern Roman empire and during World War II, Bulgaria did occupy parts of Greece together with Germany and Italy...
