Ethnic tensions in Yugoslavia primarily stemmed from the complex interplay of nationalism among its diverse groups, including Serbs, Croats, Bosniaks, Slovenes, and others. Historical grievances, economic disparities, and the legacy of World War II exacerbated these tensions. The weakening of central authority in the 1980s, particularly after the death of Josip Broz Tito, led to a rise in nationalist sentiments, culminating in violent conflicts during the 1990s, including the Bosnian War and the Kosovo War. These conflicts resulted in significant loss of life and widespread ethnic cleansing, ultimately leading to the disintegration of Yugoslavia into several independent states.

Ethnic groups in the former Yugoslavia continue to fight due to historical animosities, political manipulation, and unresolved issues stemming from the breakup of the country in the 1990s.

Ethnic tensions refers to conflicts of interest among various ethnic groups within a society. Thus as example, if a large city has a police force that is dominated by a specific ethnic group, this can create tensions between the police force and poor minority groups in their relationships with each other. The dominate ethnic group will in some cases try to take advantage of the fact that they have police powers over a smaller ethnic group with problems such as poverty. Tensions between the "haves & have nots" become "ethnic tensions".
