Answer 2

Yugoslavia was a country created after World War I. It was composed of Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Macedonia, and several small states. Each area had its own language, culture, religion, etc. During World War II, it became a Communist state under General Tito. When the the Soviet Union broke up into pieces, Tito was dead. The country was ruled by a Serb tyrant..All these small states began to look to immediate independence. Bosnia and Herzegovina were two states that had mixed populations of Serbs and Croats. Milosevic was the dictator who was the Serb who tried to preserve unity by military force. Suddenly, old grievances that had festered since before Roman times (2,000 years ago) erupted between friends and neighbors. Every one pulled out their guns and began shooting everyone they couldn't agree with on any matter. There were no major battles, just bloodshed. The US was involved at that time in Somalia and Haiti. We tried to pass the buck to the European Union and the United Nations. It was a political mess. Eventually, we furnished some troops and diplomacy to help partition the country into several independent states.

The War in Bosnia and Herzegovina, commonly known as the Bosnian War, was an international armed conflict that took place between March 1992 and November 1995. The war involved several sides. According to the numerous ICTY judgements the conflict was between Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (later Serbia and Montenegro) and Bosnia as well as Croatia and Bosnia. According to ICJ judgement, Serbia gave military and financial support to Serb forces which consisted of Yugoslav People's Army (later Army of Serbia and Montenegro), Army of Republika Srpska, Serbian Ministry of the Interior, Ministry of the Interior of Republika Srpska and Serb Territorial Defence Forces. Croatia gave military support to Croat forces of Herzeg-Bosnia. Bosnian government forces were led by Army of Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. These factions changed their objectives and allegiances several times at various stages of the war.

Since the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina was a consequence of events in the wider region of former Yugoslavia, and due to the involvement of neighboring countries Croatia and Serbia and Montenegro, there was a long going debate about whether the conflict was a civil war or a war of aggression. Most Bosniaks and many Croats claimed that the war was a war of aggression from Serbia, while Serbs mostly considered it a civil war. A trial took place before the International Court of Justice, following a suit by Bosnia and Herzegovina against the Serbia and Montenegro for genocide (see Bosnian genocide case at the International Court of Justice) from 1993. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling of 26 February 2007 effectively determined the war's nature to be international, hence exonerating Serbian responsibility for the genocide committed by the Serb forces of Republika Srpska. The ICJ concluded, however, that Serbia failed to prevent genocide committed by Serb forces and failed to punish those who carried out the genocide, especially general Ratko Mladić, and bring them to justice.

Despite the evidence of widespread killings, siege of Sarajevo, mass rapes, ethnic cleansing and torture conducted by different Serb forces which also included JNA (VJ), elsewhere in Bosnia, especially in Prijedor, Banja Luka and Foča, as well as camps and detention centers, the judges ruled that the criteria for genocide were met only in Srebrenica or Eastern Bosnia. However, the world's highest court concluded that the crimes, such as mass killing, rapes, detention, destruction or deportations, committed during the 1992-1995 war, are also "acts of genocide" according to the Genocide Convention, but could not be qualified as genocide. The Court further decided that, following Montenegro's declaration of independence in May 2006, Serbia was the only Respondent party in the case, but that "any responsibility for past events involved at the relevant time the composite State of Serbia and Montenegro".

The involvement of NATO, during the 1995 Operation Deliberate Force against the positions of the Army of Republika Srpska (as well as the Croat-Bosniak Split Agreement, enabling Croatian army intervention) made the war an internationalized conflict, but only in its final stages.

The war was brought to an end after the signing of the General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina in Paris on 14 December 1995. The peace negotiations were held in Dayton, Ohio, and were finalized on 21 December 1995. The accords are known as the Dayton Agreement.

While the wartime propaganda figures varied widely to reflect current political interests of involved parties, the most recent research places the number of victims at around 100,000–110,000 killed (civilians and military), and 1.8 million displaced. Recent research have shown that most of the killed people during Bosnian War were Bosniaks (65%), with Serbs in second (25%) and Croats (8%) in third place.
