Do the sisters count as two or are they considered a single dragon ball king?

Teach me, Hesty-sensei.
"Welcome to the fantasy world of Yugoslavia!"
May have decided to tweak the name so that it wasn't obviously just an old real-world country name. I'll admit it was always weird seeing a fantasy manga country named for something that actually existed. I can't even imagine it happening with a more recent nation.

That, and increasing her resistance to high amounts of ambient mana, maybe to make her more resistant to magic attacks.
Like getting hit with a tear-gas grenade, after spending a couple of days in a room full of the stuff. So the only reaction it would get out of someone like that would be "who farted"?

No one said that you can’t have a coincidentally-named country in another world.

In writing it's bad form to give things names that might create confusion or draw obvious parallels without reason or intent. Naming a fantasy country after a real-world country, even if it doesn't exist anymore, when there's no reason for it to share the name besides "the author probably just found writing about a country that no longer exists and decided that was a good name." is clumsy and awkward It's the double-edged sword of the assumption that everything in a story has meaning. If it's not meant to have meaning, it should avoid the appearance of such. That sort of attention to detail is what separates amateur authors from those who are actually good.
If this was some sort of alternate universe historical fantasy where the world was basically 16th/17th century Earth but with magic and dragons and it was intentional to use a bunch of real countries and possibly real people as a storytelling device that'd be different. But this is the equivalent of Tolkein writing Lord of the Rings and deciding that the major characters are Frodo, Samwise, Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli and Aristotle and they end up in Rohan to entreat the aid of that nation's great king, Adolph, in their fight against the dark forces from Siam. You don't have a fantastic setting filled with fictional names of places and characters and then suddenly invoke a famous real name of something unless you absolutely intend for that real name to carry weight for the reader.
