Bosnia and Herzegovina is a Balkan country formerly part of Yugoslavia. Its capital is Sarajevo. The country, as has much of the region, has experienced ethnic conflicts for several years (see Bosnian War). The region of Bosnia and Kosovo in nearby Serbia were especially hit by the violence. To attempt to resolve conflicts, the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina consists of three members, representing each of the major ethnic groups: the Croats, Bosniaks, and Serbs.
