Bosnia and Herzegovina has a complex history, influenced by Illyrian, Roman, and Slavic cultures. In the Middle Ages, it was an independent kingdom before falling under Ottoman rule in the 15th century. Later, it was annexed by Austria-Hungary in 1878. After World War I, it became part of Yugoslavia, remaining under its rule until its declaration of independence in 1992. The country then faced a brutal war marked by ethnic conflict. Since the Dayton Agreement in 1995, Bosnia and Herzegovina has worked toward political stability and European integration.
