    It's amazing in a way, you can see the generations of assimilation right in front of your eyes, by looking at them and listening to them talk.
    Yep.

    But it is nice they still know from where they came from, for example this Chileans as you can see are totally in love with Croatia, if they would ever come here to visit I would be the first to show them historical places etc..., when you see someone like this loving some of his roots from past, this much..., what kind of men would we be to say; "what are you doin here" or "you don't have anythin to do with us".

    No, but there are cultural clubs(like Club Croata de Punta Arenas) where they "promote Croatian culture". Usually folklore or things like that. They can get citizenship just by doing that - "belonging to the Croatian nation". I don't think it will get lost in a few generations because these are already descendants from the 19th century emigrants and they still keep the tradition.
    Then there are some who return to Croatia to study or do business(Lukšić).

Yugoslav partisans believer in the chetnik ideology, but could not display it openly because otherwise they couldn't recruit naive Croats and Bosniaks, which were necessary for victory. We shouldn't make a difference between a Serb and a chetnik, the two are exactly the same thing.

    No, post-WW2 emigration to Chile was very rare. Most of the political refugees went to Argentina and even there they aren't the majority of Croats.
    Most of the Croatian emigration to South America was from the period of gold rush and economical crisis(grape disease, collapse of the sailboat industry thanks to the steamboat...).
