anyone that defied them. About 250,000 people died, whether it be the Bosnian-Muslims, Croats, Serbs or NATO troops. The conflict was that Yugoslavia broke apart and the Serbs wanted it to stay together. Bosnia, one of the new countries that were formed, is 37% Serb, 14% Croat, and 48% Bosniak, or Bosnian-Muslim, totaling the population at 4,377,053 in 1991 at the start of the war. The new size of independent Bosnia and Herzegovina is 19,767 square miles. The independent Croatia is 21,851 square miles and the population is 4,437,460 as of 2001. The new Serbia is 34,116 square miles with a population of 7,334,935 in 2000. These numbers are significantly smaller than former Yugoslavia and shows that math truly is involved in the world.
