My goal for this investigation is to find to what extent was the outcome of World War I a cause of the Bosnian Genocide. I plan to achieve this by researching the reasons for the War in Bosnia, the treaties of WWI that affected the region, and the history of the area before and after WWI. I then plan to analyze how the ethnic diversity of countries changed because of treaties, the political motives for the War in Bosnia, and how the war resulted in genocide. I will use sources that cover the War in Bosnia and Bosnian Genocide as an event, I also will use sources written about the conditions in the Baltic leading up to the war. I will then conclude how much of an impact the WWI treaties, regarding the Baltic Nations, had on the happening of the Bosnian Genocide.

Notes: 3 main ethnicities- Serbs, Croats, and Albanians/Bosnians in Yugoslavia Serbs and Croats are christian (serbs are east orthodox, croats are catholics) Albanians are Muslim

Bosnia is recognized as a country, it is predominately Muslim but with a Serb minority Serbian leader, Slobodan Milosevic, attacks Bosnia in 1992 Serbian army does ethnic cleansing (this is the genocide) Western powers fail to take action until 1995
