The Balkan Conflict refers to a series of ethnic and political disputes in the Balkans, a region in Southeast Europe, particularly during the 1990s. The conflict primarily involved the breakup of Yugoslavia, leading to wars in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, and Kosovo. These conflicts were marked by ethnic tensions among Serbs, Croats, and Bosniaks, resulting in significant loss of life and displacement of populations. International efforts to resolve the conflicts included interventions by organizations like NATO and the United Nations. The Dayton Agreement in 1995 helped to establish peace in Bosnia, while Kosovo declared independence from Serbia in 2008, further complicating regional relations. The legacy of the Balkan Conflict continues to influence politics and ethnic relations in the region today.
