·Deutsche Welle·Impact 1/5 · Low

Bosnia-Herzegovina is still recovering from the devastating war that took place over 30 years ago, which has left deep scars and ethnic divisions in its wake. The country's complex system of government, established after the war, continues to be shaped by these divisions and separatist tendencies. This complex reality is also influenced by Bosnia-Herzegovina's ambitions to join the European Union, which could bring economic benefits but also pose significant challenges. The country's path to EU membership will require careful navigation of its internal politics and ethnic tensions.
