The correct answer is: The breakup of Yugoslavia led to a decentralization of political power in the Balkan region, causing ethnic and religious clashes.
To understand what led to the conflict in Bosnia between the Bosniaks and Serbians, we need to look at the historical context. In the early 1990s, Yugoslavia was breaking apart, and as a result, political power was decentralized in the Balkans region. This decentralization led to various ethnic and religious groups competing for control and territory.
In Bosnia, the three main ethnic groups were the Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims), Serbians (Orthodox Christians), and Croats (Catholic Christians). Each group had its own aspirations and interests, which, combined with historical grievances, fueled tensions and conflicts.
The conflict escalated as Bosnian Serbians, supported by the Serbian government under Slobodan Milosevic, sought to create a Greater Serbia by reclaiming territories they considered to be historically Serbian. They used military force and perpetrated human rights abuses, leading to what is widely recognized as the Bosnian War (1992-1995).
During the war, ethnic cleansing occurred, with Bosniaks being the primary targets, as Serbian forces aimed to eradicate or expel them from areas they controlled. The conflict resulted in the deaths of thousands of people and the displacement of millions.
So, in summary, the breakup of Yugoslavia and the subsequent decentralization of political power in the Balkans region led to ethnic and religious clashes that sparked the conflict between the Bosniaks and Serbians in Bosnia.
