Well, what is a country? Let's say that a country is any geographical area that is fully independent from that near/surrounding it, in agreement with this country.

Now that that's cleared up, we can say that the first time that Bosnia was known as a 'country' was in 1377, when the Kingdom of Bosnia became independent from both the Kingdom of Hungary and the Byzantine Empire. However, in 1463, the Bosnian Kingdom was conquered by the Ottoman Empire. Being juggled through the hands of the Ottoman empire, Austria-Hungary, and Yugoslavia, the region only re-emerged as a nation following the Yugoslav breakup of 1992.

Even then, the nation was known as Bosnia and Herzegovina, and whilst commonly referred to as Bosnia, is still named as such today. So, the only time that Bosnia was: a.) independent, and b.) actually called Bosnia was between 1377 and 1463.

But back to the original question: the Kingdom of Bosnia declared independence in 1377. The current nation of Bosnia and Herzegovina became independent in 1992.
