When Yugoslavia fell apart in the 1990s, it sparked a bloody series of wars that spanned the entire decade. The new state of Bosnia and Herzegovina was shaken by its war, which lasted from 1992 until 1995. The scars of those three years are still vividly present, over two decades after the violence ended.
As a country, Bosnia has vowed to never forget the horrors that occured and the thousands of people who were killed during the war. Various memorials can be found across the country, giving people a place to celebrate and mourn those who were lost. This site will compare urban, suburban, and rural memorials to the war, and make the argument that all three are vital to truly commemorating the past.
