Cultures in Conflict
Where different societies or cultures occupy the
same territory, several things can take place. The
societies can compete with each other for resources
through violence or other forms of conflict. Or they
can share resources through cooperation and trade.
In the long run, different cultures can also blend.
Sadly, in some areas of the world, competing
societies and cultures have fallen into cycles of
conflict that are difficult to stop.

Bosnia-Herzegovina
Cultural conflicts today are often worst where empires used to
overlap. For example, Eastern Europe is an area where
armies and peoples from the old empires of Western Europe
ran into opposing armies and peoples from the old empire of
Russia and the Ottoman Empire of Turkey. These empires
were based on different religions. Western Europe was mainly
Catholic and Protestant. Russia was Russian Orthodox (a
form of Christianity), while the Ottoman Empire was Islamic.
Over the centuries, all over Eastern Europe, power has shifted
back and forth. This is part of the history behind the tiny
country of Bosnia-Herzegovina. For most of this century, the
present territory of Bosnia-Herzegovina was part of
Yugoslavia, a country made up of a patchwork of different
cultures and religions that were left there by the old empires.
Yugoslavia began to break apart in 1991, shortly after the Soviet Union fell
apart. In 1992, Bosnia-Herzegovina became an independent nation at the
same time that other parts of Yugoslavia were also becoming
independent.
Bosnia-Herzegovina is a very mixed place, with various kinds of
Christians, Muslims, and other peoples living and working side by side, as
well as intermarrying. It also contains people who regard themselves as
ethnic Bosniaks, Serbs, Croatians, Albanians, and members of other
groups from the region. Right away, the neighboring countries of Serbia
and Croatia began to try to carve Bosnia-Herzegovina apart along ethnic
lines, and to push other people off of land that they wanted only for Serbs
or Croatians. From 1992 to 1995, Bosnia-Herzegovina was overrun by this
ethnic war.
In 1995, the United States helped to stop the fighting, but today the
country is still unstable with a poor economy and many refugees who are
unable to return to their homes.
