The Balkans were referred to as the "powder keg of Europe" due to the region's complex mix of ethnic tensions, nationalist movements, and geopolitical rivalries in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This volatility was exacerbated by the decline of the Ottoman Empire, which left a power vacuum and competing interests among European powers.
