History of Bosnia-Herzegovina
Last Updated: 04 April, 2003
The rich history of Bosnia and Herzegovina demonstrates the uniqueness of a country where four religions (Judaism, Roman Catholicism, Christian Orthodoxy and Islam) have each given their personal mark to the development of a specific civilization, combining the heritage of the Neolithic, Iliric, Classical, Greco-Roman and Slavic cultural elements. Mutual influences and the unity of those cultural and natural values on a relatively small geographic area, resulted in the specific political, economic, cultural and international character of Bosnia and Herzegovina throughout history.
Xth Century
The State of Bosnia first appeared in the Xth Century. At that time Bosnia extended from the Drina river to the Adriatic sea. The socio-legal position of Bosnia in the Medieval period was challenged by Byzantium, Hungary and the neighboring states of Croatia and Serbia who tried to take Bosnian territory to expand Catholicism and Christian Orthodoxy. During the reign of Kulin Ban (1180-1204), Bosnia was developing as an independent and internationally recognized country. At the same time, her neighbors tried to destroy the specific religion known as the Bosnian-Bogomil Church. Being created between the two Christian religions, this Bosnian-Bogomil Church gave specific emphasis to the spiritual development of Bosnia during three centuries.

Roots of the Balkan troubles:
a history of ethnic skirmishes
More than four years of war have turned once-beautiful Yugoslavia into a living nightmare, and into one of the bloodiest battlefields in Europe's recent history. We see the images refugees bearing children and suitcases, war-wearied elderly women, crying soldiers. But many of us don't understand exactly how the turmoil began. Here's a brief look. The rivalries between Serb, Croat and Muslim communities in Yugoslavia date back centuries. Created in the aftermath of World War I, the country was first known as the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. The name Yugoslavia was adopted in 1929. During World War II, Croats joined the Nazis in exterminating Serbs and others. The Serbs took up arms and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians were killed on both sides. Josip Broz Tito, a partisan leader, led the resistance against the Nazis, ultimately driving them from Yugoslavia. Following the war, Tito was elected to lead the newly created Yugoslav Federation. Tito ruled with an iron fist, keeping ethnic rivalries in check. Despite such problems as astronomical inflation, the nation held together for a decade after Tito's death in 1980. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, democratic movements swept across much of Eastern Europe, including Yugoslavia. With the election of non-communist governments in four of Yugoslavia's six republics, the Federation began to crumble and ethnic divisions resurfaced.

The Balkan Crisis: A brief history
The roots of the Balkan crisis of the 1990s, particularly those in the area identified as Bosnia-Hercegovina, are found in the history of what we call Yugoslavia beginning long before the birth of Christ, continuing into the Middle Ages and were exacerbated by developments before, during and after World War II. Here's an overview of the conflict:
BEFORE WRITTEN HISTORY
Anthropologists agree that the first people that we know for sure settled in the Balkans area that at various times has been called Yugoslavia were Illyrians, an Indo-European collection of tribes.
IT WAS ONCE ROMAN
The Romans conquered the area before the time of Christ, named it Illyricum and made it a province of its far-flung empire. Because of its crossroads location on the stage of Balkan trade and commerce, the rocky, hilly area has long been fought over, not because of its rich resources, but as a geo-political pawn.
THE SERBS CLIMB ONTO THE STAGE
A FURTHER COMPLICATION
SARAJEVO AND THE CROWN PRINCE
Most European schoolchildren are familiar with the story of how the assassination of archduke Ferdinand and his consort, the Duchess of Hohenberg, on June 28, 1914 in Sarajevo launched World War I. The gunman, Gavrilo Princip was a Bosnian Serbian student who was an active member of the Mlada Bosna, group which had been formed among university and secondary school students to advance revolutionary ideas which, the group hoped, would lead to independence.

Bosnia - History
The area that is now called Bosnia has been ruled by many different groups in the course of its history. In 1463, it was conquered by the Ottoman, or Turkish, armies. Many Bosnians became Muslim at this time. The region remained part of the Ottoman empire until 1878, when Austria-Hungary gained control. In June 1914, a young Serbian student assassinated the Archduke Francis Ferdinand in Sarajevo, a murder which sparked World War 1. After the war, Bosnia-Herzegovina became part of the country that was later renamed Yugoslavia. During World War 2, Germany and Italy invaded Yugoslavia. Many Bosnian patriots fought against the invading armies, led by a young Communist, Josip Broz Tito. When the war ended, Bosnia-Herzegovina became one of six republics in the new Communist state led by Tito. Communism held the different states and ethnic groups together briefly, but when Tito died in 1980, the old conflicts re-emerged. In 1990, the Communist party lost control; two years later, Croats and Muslims in Bosnia voted for independence. Most Serbs living there opposed this because they wished to remain part of Yugoslavia, which Serbia dominated. A fierce civil war broke out in April 1992 after Bosnian Muslims and Croats declared independence. Within two months, about two-thirds of Bosnia fell under the control of the Bosnian Serbs.

    http://www.eurotravelling.net/bosnia/banja_luca/banja_luca_history.htm
    Banja Luka - History At the beginning the area of today's Banja Luka was populated by the Illyrian tribe Mezeji. The Roman leader Germanikus conquered them in 9 BC. Romans stayed in the area for a rather long time. They built a military fortification named Castra on the left bank of river Vrbas. Precursor of the today's Kastel Fortress. During the VI and VII century the Slavs conquered these areas.
    The name Banja Luka was first mentioned in the declaration of the Hungarian king Vladislav II, dated 06 February 1494. The name itself originated from the generic noun "luka" representing a valley next to water and adjective of the noun "ban". This name was used for the whole valley around the river Vrbas North of the medieval town in Gornji Seher (today's Srpske Toplice). As the best-fortified town in the Zemljanik County, Banja Luka became the biggest centre of the then Jajce Region. In 1528 Turks captured the town and the area of Banja Luka. The ruins of the town can be seen even today.
    During the Ottoman rule, hot-spring bathhouses have been built in Srpske Toplice. Those buildings had sulphur springs with the temperature of 34oC and they were used for the treatment of rheumatism, neuralgia and some skin diseases. Novoselija is the Southern most part of the city.

    Religion in the Bosnian Conflict By Douglas Johnston and Jonathan Eastvold For eighteen days in February of 1984, a divided world set aside its rhetoric and took its differences to the ski slopes. The occasion was the XIV Winter Olympics, held in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. Despite the death of Soviet president Yuri Andropov and the ongoing violence in Beirut, reporters remarked that "the scene in Sarajevo was a kind of Balkan Oz—sweet and surreal and dreamlike in its detachment from all other places and all other happenings on the rest of the planet." [i] Indeed, more than one observer remarked on the "powerful irony in the fact that Sarajevo, the hotbed of political intrigue that touched off World War I, should be so laid back when it came to the volatile events of 1984." [ii] Optimism ran high. Even commented that the games signaled "a brighter future for this grimy industrial city in the mountains of Yugoslavia" and forecasted that "when the Olympic torch will be extinguished, Sarajevo will be among the winners." [iii] Given its strategic location between East and West, its leadership role in the Non-Aligned Movement

    Bosnia and Herzegovina
    History
    For the first centuries of the Christian era, Bosnia was part of the Roman Empire. After the fall of Rome, Bosnia was contested by Byzantium and Rome's successors in the West. Slavs settled the region in the 7th century, and the kingdoms of Serbia and Croatia split control of Bosnia in the 9th century. The 11th and 12th centuries saw the rule of the region by the kingdom of Hungary. The medieval kingdom of Bosnia gained its independence around 1200 A.D. Bosnia remained independent up until 1463, when Ottoman Turks conquered the region. During Ottoman rule, many Bosnians dropped their ties to Christianity in favor of Islam. Bosnia was under Ottoman rule until 1878, when it was given to Austria-Hungary as a colony. While those living in Bosnia enjoyed the benefits of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, South Slavs in Serbia and elsewhere were calling for a South Slav state; World War I began when Serb nationalist Gavrilo Princip assassinated the Archduke Ferdinand in Sarajevo. Following the Great War, Bosnia became part of the South Slav state of Yugoslavia, only to be given to Nazi-puppet Croatia in World War II. The Cold War saw the establishment of the Communist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia under Tito, and the reestablishment of Bosnia as a republic with its medieval borders. Yugoslavia's unraveling was hastened by the rise of Slobodan Milosevic to power in 1986. Milosevic's embrace of the Serb nationalist agenda led to intrastate ethnic strife. Slovenia and Croatia both declared independence in 1991, and Bosnia-Herzegovina soon followed. In February 1992, the Bosnian Government held a referendum on independence, and Bosnian Serbs, supported by neighboring Serbia, responded with armed resistance in an effort to partition the republic along ethnic lines in an attempt to create a "greater Serbia." Muslims and Croats in Bosnia signed an agreement in March 1994 creating the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This narrowed the field of warring parties down to two. The conflict continued through most of 1995, ending with the Dayton Peace Agreement signed on November 21, 1995 (the final version was signed December 14, 1995 in Paris). The Muslim/Croat Federation, along with the Serb-led Republika Srpska, make up Bosnia-Herzegovina.

    Jewish History of Bosnia and Hercegovina
    Bosnia and Hercegovina (1994 estimated population 4,651,000), 19,741 square miles (51,129 square kilometers), Southern Europe, on the Balkan peninsula; formerly a constituent republic of Yugoslavia. The country is bordered by Croatia (South West, West, and North) and Yugoslavia (East and South East) and is almost entirely landlocked except for a narrow, undeveloped outlet to the Adriatic along the Neretva River. After independence (1992), the nation was splintered and devastated by ethnic warfare. Bosnia lies to the north of Hercegovina; both are largely within the Dinaric Alps. Bosnia is ethnically diverse, but ethnic fighting since independence has displaced many, especially Bosnian Muslims. About 40% of the population are Bosnian Muslims, 30% are Serbs, and 18% are Croats; all speak Serbo-Croatian. The Serbs largely belong to the Serbian Orthodox Church, and the Croats to the Roman Catholic Church.
    Sarajevo city (1987 estimated population 341,250)in the capital of Bosnia And Hercegovina on the Bosnia River. The majority of the population are Muslims of South Slavic descent. Founded in 1263, the city was held by the Turks from 1429 and passed to Austria-Hungary in 1878. Sarajevo became the capital of independent Bosnia in 1992 and has been under siege by Bosnian Serbs since April 1992, although the siege has eased at times (most recently beginning in late 1995) after air attacks on Serb positions by Nato. The city was the site of the 1984 winter Olympic games.

His official title was "Landesrabbiner fuer Steiermark, Krain, und Korushka." He was succeeded by his pupil R. Joseph b. Moses. Other Jewish communities existed at Ptuj (Poetovia), Celje, Radgona, and Ljubljana. Jews were engaged in viticulture, and traded in horses and cattle. top
