The Sarajevo War, part of the Bosnian War (1992-1995), was fueled by ethnic tensions and the disintegration of Yugoslavia. The immediate catalyst was the rise of nationalism among Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims), Serbs, and Croats, leading to conflict over territory and political power. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in 1914 symbolically marked the city's historical significance and foreshadowed the violent struggles that emerged in the 1990s as different ethnic groups sought control and independence. The war resulted in severe humanitarian crises and ethnic cleansing, particularly targeting Bosniaks.
