I had a Slavic conlang, or perhaps more accurately we could say that it
was two langs with the same name, Vranian. The first one can still be seen
at http://members.tripod.com/~tuonela/vranske/vranian.html , the second
never made it on the web. The first one was designed to be the language of
a micronation I started with a number of friends (for the large part,
ex-Yugoslavs), so as you may guess, Vranian v 1.0 became Yugoslavian
(kinda like speaking Serbian and Croatian at once, giving things like
"zeleznicki kolodvor").

Vranian v 2.0 looked and sounded like Polish, Czech, Hungarian and
Romanian all thrown into a blender. All the papers on it are gone a long
time, but I do remember this much of it:
