Bosnia Flag

To people in the English-speaking world people from Bosnia are people from Bosnia there is a distinct distinction between the 3.9 million people who live in the area known to the rest world is Bosnia but known to locals as Bosnia and Herzegovina. In fact the distinction is drawn down even further as there are two political entities in Bosnia, Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina as well as the Republic Sprska. This is because the country is decentralized and these two political entities exist side-by-side from one another. And it is a regional distinction rather than an ethnic one so this is important to be remembered when you're talking about the area we call Bosnia.

But for the discussion of this article there is one flag and this is the Bosnian flag. The flag of Bosnia and Herzegovina is blue and yellow and white. Blue is the majority of the background in its rectangular shape and there are white stars cutting across from just left of the center down to just right of the center. Then there is a triangle coming down from the top to point at the bottom of the flag. The stars are in white and the triangle is in yellow. This is basically the layout of the flag of Bosnia and this is the one of the important things remember when you're talking about the area of Bosnia.
