That must have been the worst pronunciation of Stjepan Vukčić Kosača's name i've ever heard. But the rest of the video was pretty accurate.

I find it odd that someone from The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland thinks Bosnia-Herzegovina is complex :)

serbian word ''herzog'' wtf and why did you skip the fact that Bosnia was a kingdom since 10 up to 14th century and had it's own coins and royal dynasty. Also why did you skip the fact that the country was called Bosnia until Austro Hungarian occupation, it was the Austrians who gave a country two names during the Berlin congress. The AH monarchy pressured under Russia wanted to create two states one called Bosnia and other called Herzegowina. But they backed down after Istanbul convention in 1890 keeping the country united but under two names-

It is in reality just Bosnia (Bosna). Hercegovina is just a region of Bosna just like Semberija, Bosanska Krajina, Posavina, etc.

I got really stoned after coming home from work and spent an hour and a half researching this country and old Yugoslavia and the wars that led to it splitting lol

This was uploaded three days ago, and there's still no ex-Yugoslavs fighting over nationalist BS. I'm amazed.
