Summary/Abstract: Certainly geopolitics provides answers for dissolution of Yugoslavia. However, so far there are no explanation for the crimes and sufferings of the war that took place under the direction of Milošević's policies except Great Serbian fascism. Unconsistent behavior of the international community when it comes to internationally recognized state of Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as allowing the aggression and war to last almost four years resulted in horrific human and material losses. Only the immense Bosnian patriotism managed to maintain the survival of Bosnia and Herzegovina, even though it was exposed to all the barbaric methods of destruction and very often this destruction was supported by the international representatives. Certainly patriotism was expressed and these losses were suffered for the most part by Bosniaks and Croats, but also by other citizen who remained loyal to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
