yugoslav wars

The Autonomous Province of Western Bosnia was a small unrecognized proto-state that existed in the northwest of Bosnia and Herzegovina between 1993 and 1995. It consisted mainly of the town of Velika Kladuša, its capital, as well as a few nearby villages and fields. It was proclaimed as a result...

Context: So, the 1997 Montenegrin republic-level presidential election was very close. It was mainly a context between prime minister Milo Đukanović and incumbent president Momir Bulatović, both of the fracturing Democratic Party of Socialists. In the first round of voting, Bulatović had won...

So... what we know, or at least i know, is that in OTL Macedonia left Yugoslavia peacefully. Bulgaria had no reason to join in as they hoped for a peaceful unification when all the mess ended and they even ignored the embargo on Serbia by allowing the Mafia and others to supply the Serbian with...

Currently in the post-1900 board, but demographical issues may necessitate a pre-1900 PoD. If this becomes the case, I will request a move to pre-1900. This may be a potentially sensitive or controversial thread, as it will deal with an alternate Bosnian War, so let me just put this up here...

I was wondering what possible scenarios could have happend id Russia had ignored the air blockade in Bulgaria, Hungary, and Romania and attempted unauthorized overflights to fly in troops during the incident at Pristina airport in 1999?

During its last few decades of existence, and particularly from 1973 onward, the economy of Yugoslavia fell into a decline that turned into a death spiral, with high inflation and rising debt. Naturally, this contributed to the radicalization that led to the horrors of the Yugoslav Wars. Was...

Let's say that when the SFRY is established, Kosovo is made a republic in its own right instead of a semi-autonomous subdivision of Serbia. How does this impact the course of Yugoslavia's history? How much wind does this take out of the sails of the agitation that led to the Anti-Bureaucratic...

Ok, let's say that USA and NATO keep out of Yugoslavia because they are busy somewhere else. 1993 WTC bombing being successfull is a good started PoD to make Americans focus their attention on places like Sudan and Somalia during the first half of 1990s. With War on Terror starting 8 years...

Ok, let's suppouse that the 1993 WTC bombing suceeded and Clinton declares ''War on terror'' 8 years earlier. Most probably, US would invade Sudan and pay more attention to Somalia and Rwanda than IRL. Considering that in this world "post-9/11'' anti-muslim narrative emerges in 1993 instead...

It is kinda tricky trying to find stuff regarding the Yugoslavic Wars, so I am bringing back the question here to all of you. Let's say the US had some firmer leadership or policy that would have it or the West in general get involved in the Yugoslavic Wars? Maybe around the time the Bosnian War...

Full ASB scenario: Italian Andreotti VII government (supported by neofascist MSI) denounces Osimo Treaty (that gave upper Istria, former B Zone of Free Trieste Territory to Yugoslavia) since Yugoslavia is no more in 1991 making the treaty null. Which are the consequences besides Italy becoming...

Yugoslavia was former nation in the Balkans, formed from the Southern Slavs after WWI. After decades of ethnic and religious tensions between Serbs, Croatians, Bosnians, Slovenians, and Macedonians, Yugoslavia broke up in 1992, which lead to the most horrific war of the 21st Century, the...

With the events of states in Eastern Europe gaining independence in the early 90s (Slovakia, Ukraine, Georgia) some of the major football tournaments at the time had representative teams made up of players from various independent states such as Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS: Russia...

The Yugoslav wars were the deadliest wars in Europe since WW2 that caused alot of pain and suffering to the entire region. Is it anyway possible to have a peaceful breakup of Yugoslavia or if not, have a MUCH less destructive war?

Your challenge during the Yugoslav wars make modern Serbia get Krajina, the Serb Republic in Bosnia, and Kosovo. Bonus points if you can get them in the EU. And what would the effects of a greater serbia be.

Note that I am not a rabid Serbian nationalist, I just want to hear your opinions on what would happen. Also, don't turn this into a Serbia vs Croatia flamewar.

With no point of divergence before the Yugoslav Wars began in 1991, was there any realistic way for Serbia (whether under that name or Yugoslavia) to establish at least de facto control of the territories claimed under the Greater Serbia concept and hold them into the present? Follow the link...

If Tito's dream of an SFR Yugoslavia that contained Greek Macedonia, Thrace, Albania, Bulgaria, Carinthia, and Friuli Venezia Giulia had come into being, what effect would it have on the Yugoslav Wars (ignoring all other butterfly effects). The Yugoslav Wars of this timeline would probably be...

During the Nato bombings of Yugoslavia, Hungary, as a new member of Nato, was torn between staying loyal to its new allies and safeguarding the Hungarian minority in Voivodina. Ultimately, the Hungarians endorsed to support Nato in its bombings. What if the Hungarian leadership chose another...

Just an idea I thought might be fun to explore: OTL, Hoxha’s Albania split from the USSR camp over Khrushchev's de-Stalinization and instead choose to partner up with Mao’s China in economic and military matters. Then in 1970s when China’s relations with the West improved Albania and the PRC...
