Bosnia and Herzegovina, sometimes known as Bosnia-Herzegovina or just Bosnia, is a nation in Southeastern Europe’s Balkan region. Bosnia and Herzegovina is bordered to the east by Serbia, the southeast by Montenegro, and the north and southwest by Croatia. It has a 20 kilometer (12 mile) long, slender Adriatic Sea coast in the southern part of the Mediterranean region that encircles the town of Neum. Bosnia, which is located in the country’s interior, experiences hot summers and chilly, icy winters. The terrain of the nation is primarily flat in the northeast, fairly hilly in the northwest, and mountainous in the middle and eastern parts. Herzegovina, a smaller, southern area of the nation, is primarily hilly and has a Mediterranean climate. The capital and largest city of the nation is Sarajevo, which is followed by Banja Luka, Tuzla, and Zenica.
Bosnia and Herzegovina, which is ranked 74th in the Human Development Index, is a developing nation. Industry and agriculture are the two sectors that make up the majority of its economy, followed by tourism and services. The number of tourists has dramatically increased recently. The country offers free basic and secondary education as well as a social security and universal healthcare system.

The Bosnians
The Bosniaks/Bosnians are a South Slavic ethnic group with roots in the present-day nation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which is located in the historical region of Bosnia in Southeast Europe.
The Serbs
Serbs have lived in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s current region for a very long time and have had a state there for a very long time. In the seventh century, Slavs began to colonize the Balkans, and one of the principal tribes to do so was the Serbs, who occupied much of the peninsula, including what is now Herzegovina.
TOURIST AND HISTORICAL PLACES IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA
Una National Park – the impressive waterfalls at Martin Brod, intriguing locations like the impressive Ostrovica Fortress, and the recently renovated Rmanj Monastery with its adaptation of Serbian Orthodox design await visitors who travel here.
Bihac – A square-cut medievalist castle and its accompanying church tower stand in the town’s center, while a collection of pop-up islands ringed by the aquamarine-green channels of the Una itself offer for some truly enjoyable urban park strolling.
Trebinje – a jumble of majestic Ottoman rises and authentic eastern façade that was built primarily in the 18th century, gleams beautifully against the waters of the flowing Trebisnjica River as it flows through the city’s historic center.
Stolac – Then there are the eerie gravestones of the Radimlja necropolis on the outskirts of the town, as well as the charming riparian stretches of the Bregava River with its clacking wooden watermills and genuine stone bridges.
Travnik – the pretty mid-sized town of Travnik does well to balance its interesting past as the capital and stronghold of the former viziers of this old Ottoman sub-region with modern adventure sports and outdoors draws. It is divided by the babbling Lasva River as it flows through the central mountains of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Jahorina – it is a popular destination for winter sports enthusiasts and summer hikers alike because it is home to Bosnia’s most well-known ski area and was once the site of the Winter Olympics.
Kravice Falls – The Kravice Falls, a genuinely stunning wonder of Bosnia’s backcountry, flow in numerous streams over the lush slopes south of Mostar.
Tuzla – it is a vibrant and self-assured town that is a terrific spot to feel the pulse of the genuine, raw BiH, despite the fact that it may not seem like the best place to spend your Bosnian days and that it is located right in the industrial center of the country.
Banja Luka – With the exception of a few restored treasures like the Cathedral of Saint Bonaventure and the rebuilt, former UNESCO Ferhat-Pasha Mosque, Banja Luka, the largely unknown capital of the Republika Srpska region of Bosnia and Herzegovina, no longer exhibits much of the historic Ottoman and Slavic richness it once did.
Blidinje Nature Park – it is renowned for the enormous trunks of its indigenous Bosnian pine trees, and it also has dense woods with white-barked evergreens that envelop a forest floor dotted with flowers. The entire region is also dotted with intricately carved medieval stele that pay homage to the Orthodox customs of Bosnia before the Ottoman Empire.
Brcko – The sole significant port in Bosnia is located in Brcko, which is situated on the edge of the Sava River and shares a border with Croatia to the north.
Sarajevo – the city has all but lost its past status as a devastated war zone and is today a lively, effervescent, and fascinating European center that is speeding headlong into the modern era.
Jajce – one of the most popular entrances to the lakes and gorges of the picturesque Bosanska Krajina region of the north is the irresistibly green Jajce, which is bolstered by the thundering waterfalls that flow through the urban bluffs at its center.
Blagaj – In actuality, the most popular attraction in the town is the enormous Sufi lodge known as the Tekija, which rises in stunning Ottoman designs perfectly on the brink of the Buna’s source.
Mostar – The Neretva at the center of the town is crossed by the arched Old Bridge, which has been painstakingly rebuilt after being destroyed during the Croat-Bosniak conflict and has earned the coveted UNESCO designation.

EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA
Hydrometeorological hazards and natural disasters pose a threat to Bosnia and Herzegovina, and it is anticipated that they will largely have an impact on agriculture and public health through seasonal flooding and dry spells. BiH is becoming more susceptible to natural calamities such droughts, heat waves, heavy precipitation, landslides, and floods as a result of the expected effects of climate change. The most frequent natural disasters are connected to prolonged, intense downpours that can result in mudslides, flooding of homes, businesses, and vast tracts of agricultural land, among other environmental disturbances. Due to decreased river runoff, drying in the nation’s lowland regions, and increased demand and consumption brought-on by economic development and population growth, droughts may become more frequent in some locations. BiH is predicted to experience increasingly frequent and severe natural catastrophes due to climate change due to increased temperatures, altered rainfall patterns, extended heat waves, and water scarcity.
