Synopsis

The Dayton Peace Accords, signed in 1995 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio, brought an end to the brutal conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina. While the agreement established a framework for peace, it also entrenched a political system that categorizes citizens into three ethnic groups, effectively marginalizing those who do not fit within these classifications. This quasi-democratic structure has led to ongoing challenges in political representation and social cohesion, leaving many individuals without rights or recognition in their own country.
