the maps below are not
the official maps.
If you know of a source of the official map, please let me know. dubravko_2005@kakarigi.net Thanks to Velimir Wittner we now have the following information: One possible source of official maps is the DOD BosniaLink. The first map below was made before the Dayton negotiations and illustrates the ethnic distribution in B-H according to the census of 1991. It, to large extent represents the lines of separation of forces at that time. We have created an "improved" map based on the exhibits at Dr. Perry's news briefing on Dec. 4, 1995. This map also reflects Mission: Peace. Stay tuned... |
In 1995, after several months of heavy negotiations and 21 days in Dayton, Ohio
the world community has come up with a new map and the related
Dayton Peace Agreement (referenced here in Mario Profaca's
"Cyberspace Station").
I call this a pain killer for the toothache. It stops the pain temporarily but does not
cure the tooth. It is hard to imagine that this strange looking creature (Republika Srpska)
can survive (see copies of correspondence
RE this subject). 
It legitimazes the divisions, which most Bosniaks do not want, and ethnically based fiefdoms of
criminals.
In addition, serious questions remain unresolved:
Brcko is demanded by both the Federation and the Republika Srpska and controls the critical life line for the lands in the West.
This region was heavily populated by the Croats and suffered heavy casualties during the war.
Some say that its very southern tip as well as some villages in the Konavle hinterland are still negotiable to be given away to the FRY.
The Serbs in the "Serbian" parts of Sarajevo, most specifically Grbavica, are encouraged to continue to rebel and refuse to accept the Bosnian Federation authority over the unified Sarajevo.
An earlier attempt at division was made with an equally ridiculous map.
An improved map was created from the map exhibited at the Sec. Perry's briefing on Dec 4.
This map reflects the internal lines of separation between the Bosnian-Croat Federation
and the Republika Srpska entities. Also, "Mission Peace" directs that the main zones of
responsibilites are the US, British, and Franch as indicated by the respective flags.
The area in the Northeast is under direct Nato supervision through its Rapid Reaction Corps.
The first map above is based on the
posting in
Vladimir Vuksan's collection which in turn
was based on a map published in a Croatian newspaper.
