Flag of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Flag origins

The yellow triangle symbolizes the three peoples: Bosniaks, Croats and Serbs. Stars cut off at the edges suggest universal continuity.

Flag story

After the Bosnian War, the three peoples could not agree on a flag. A Spanish diplomat ultimately made the final decision.
