The
Bosnia and
Herzegovina history
is coloured in
showing its unique
identity through
four religions (
Judaism, Catolicism,
Orthodoxism and
Islamism). Each one
is a part of this
specific
civilization. Bosnia
and Herzegovina is
the result of inner
influences of
uniqueness in
culture, natural
values on relatively
small area, so, now
Bosnia and
Herzegovina has its
own subjectivity
built through the
history.
First
time when Bosnia and
Herzegovina was
shown on the world
stage is X century
taking the area from
the river Drina on
East to the
Adriatic.
During the Middle
Ages, Bosnia was
under attack by
Byzantium, Hungary,
Croatian and Serbia
which tryed to wide
ther own political
and religion aims in
one hand, but
influences in the
other as well.
During the Kulin
Ban reign (1180
– 1204), Bosnia was
independent
and internationaly
affirmated country.
That was the time
when the neighbours
tryed to destroy
Bosnian church
(Paganism) because
it was cathegory
between Catolicism
and Orthodoxism.
But, Bosnian church
gave its
configurating
spiritual point to
build dominant
religion in Bosnia
during three
centuries.
During the XII
century Bosnia was
build on
parliamentarian
principled aspect
with specific
politic and religion
relations. When the
king Tvrtko
(1377) was kinged,
Bosnia becomes
kingdom, but also in
the same time ( when
the king Tvrtko
reigned; 1353 –
1391) Bosnia had
maximum area situated
from the river Sava
north to islands
Korcula and Hvar,
Zrmanja and Knin
west to Sjenica and
Lima. Reigning
dinasty in the Middle
Ages - Bosnia
were Kotromanics.
OTTOMAN REGIN
PERIOD
XV century is the
time when the

area of Balcan, also
Bosnia and
Herzegovina. Bosnia
is under Ottoman
govern in 1463. when

possessor possessed
the town of Bobovac
and in the same time
stopped the regin of
Kotromanics, and the
Turk made “Bosnian
sandzak” in 1580. In
Bosnia pashalic as
form of teritorial
and political
organization was in
the govern centre of
Ottoman imperia.
The coming of the
Turk had brought a
lot of changes in
Bosnian society. A
great number of
Bosnian people took
Islam as official
religion, new towns
marked in oriental
way were built but
the change in
economic
organization was
also pointed out.
When ottoman imperia
led wars for west
Balcan and central
Europe territories,
Bosnian people were
activated as
soldiers.
After the great
Vienna war
(1683-1699) when
ottoman army failed,
Bosnia becomes west
province of ottoman
imperia. With

were affirmed north,
west and south.
During XVII and
first half of XIX
century Bosnian
people led defence
wars against Austria
and Venice and in
the same time they
wanted autonomic
level inside of
Ottoman imperia.
There were few
rebellions against
Turk govern like
Husein-Captain
Gradascevich
(1831-32) which was
finally broke down
by Omer-pasha Latas
army intervention.
This failure of
Bosnian pashas made
