Bosnia Bosnian
I'm an American citizen who speaks English only is there a way to enter the army of Bosnia?
I realized that Bosnia has all the volunteers that their service now and long term is 4 months old. Is it at all possible for me to join them and still hold U.S. citizenship? Because I do not like our army. It's too big.
Why not join ours?

Chapters: Bosnian Monarchs, Tvrtko I of Bosnia, List of Rulers of Bosnia, Stephen Tomaaevi of Bosnia, Stephen Dabiaa of Bosnia, Stephen Ostoja of Bosnia, Jelena Gruba, Stephen Thomas of Bosnia, Tvrtko Ii of Bosnia. Excerpt: Jelena Gruba Jelena Gruba (Bosnian and Croatian : Jelena Gruba ; Cyrillic : ) was the Queen regnant of Bosnia from 1395 to 1398. She was the only female ruler of Bosnia .Jelena came from the noble House of Nikoli , which ruled a part of Zachlumia . Queen consort Jelena first became Queen of Bosnia as consort to King Stephen Dabi a . He ascended in 1391, on the death of his relative, King Stephen Tvrtko I of Bosnia . Their only surviving child was a daughter called Stana. Stana's daughter Vladika married Juraj Radivojevi during Stephen Dabi a's lifetime and reign. This is confirmed by a charter by which Stephen Dabi a gave his daughter an area to govern. The charter also says that the area is to be inherited by the king's granddaughter Vladika and grandson-in-law Juraj. Queen regnant When Stephen Dabi a died in 1395, Jelena ceased to be Queen consort of Bosnia. Her husband had designated King Sigismund of Hungary , the husband of his relative, Queen Mary of Hungary , as his successor. The Bosnian nobility refuzed to recognize Sigismund as king and installed Jelena as the new monarch. Jelena was great-grandmother by then, as her daughter's daughter had already had children at that point. As Jelena was brought to power by the large Bosnian nobility, it is during her reign that the Bosnian nobility grows in power independently from the crown. Amongst them were the famous Dukes Sandalj Hrani and Hrvoje Vuk i and Prince Pavle Radenovi that ruled their own demesnes independently from the Queen. The Queen's demesne was a small territory in central Bosnia , while she lost t... |

When his father died in 1314 and Croatian Ban Mladen II ubi emerged as Count of Zadar, Princeps of Dalmatia and Second Bosnian Ban, Stephen's mother Elizabeth took him and his siblings and fled with them into exile to the Republic of Dubrovnik. Mladen was not popular in Bosnia and had fought bloody but losing wars against the Serbs of Rascia (led by King Stephen Uro II Milutin of Serbia), and the Venetians (to whom he lost Zadar in 1313), along with numerous inner opponents of his regime. Mladen came to the idea to impose Stjepan Kotromani as his vassal in Bosnia, for he was sure that he would be well accepted in Bosnia. The House of ubi, vengeful enemies o...

Buildings And Structures In Bosnia And Herzegovina: Bosnian Pyramids
$15.67 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Visoica overlooking Visoko, photo taken in 1973 Visoica overlooking Visoko, today (2007)Bosnian pyramids refers to an area located around Visoica hill (or Grad hill), in the Bosnia and Herzegovina town of Visoko, northwest of Sarajevo (located at 4305840N 1801038E), which became the focus of international attention in October 2005 following a news-media campaign promoting the false idea that it is actually the largest of a group of ancient human-made pyramids. Expert visitors to the site in 2006 stated that there is no pyramid there. Additionally, scientists have criticised the Bosnian authorities for supporting the pyramid claim saying, This scheme is a cruel hoax on an unsuspecting public and has no place in the world of genuine science. The 213 metre Visoica hill, upon which the Old town of Visoki was once sited, is roughly pyramid-shaped. The idea that it constitutes an ancient artificial edifice was publicised by Bosnian author and metalworker Semir Osmanagi who currently is based in Houston, Texas. His subsequent excavations at the site have uncovered what he claims to be a paved entrance plateau and tunnels, as well as stone blocks and ancient mortar which he has suggested once covered the structure. Osmanagi has claimed that the dig involved an international team of archaeologists from Australia, Austria, Ireland, Scotland and Slovenia. However, many archaeologists he named have stated they had not agreed to participate and were never at the site. The dig began in April 2006. Osmanagi has named Visoica hill the Pyramid of the Sun, and two nearby hills, identified from satellite and aerial photography, the Pyramid of the Moon and the Pyramid of the (Bosnian) Dragon (and another two, one named the Pyramid of the Earth, have ...

Through Bosnian Eyes
$15.18 Concurrent with the dawn of multiparty politics in 1990, Mirko Pejanovic emerged in Bosnia-Herzegovina as the leader of the Socialist Alliance. His organization was in charge of implementing policies of the League of Communists.This memoir, beginning in 1990, tells the story of his experiences as a public and political leader. Through Bosnian Eyes covers a decade of Pejanovic's service. His role in public life was characterized by an unwavering commitment to national equality and strong convictions regarding the nature of a multiethnic Bosnia-Herzegovina. As a participant in the most important political events of the time, and as a colleague of every major political leader, the author conveys a personal history that is memorable for its insights into the neglected world of Serbs who remained loyal to the nation in trying times. |

The Bosnian Muslims: Denial Of A Nation
$48.75 DIVAlthough their plight now dominates television news worldwide, the Bosnian Muslims were until recently virtually unknown outside of Yugoslavia. This meticulously researched, comprehensive book traces the turbulent history of the Bosnian Muslims and shows how their mixed secular and religious identity has shaped the conflict in which they are now so tragically embroiled./DivDIVAlthough their plight now dominates television news worldwide, the Bosnian Muslims were until recently virtually unknown outside of Yugoslavia. Who are these people? Why are they the focus of their former neighbors’ rage? What role did they play in Yugoslavia before they became the victims of ethnic cleansing? Why has Bosnia-Hercegovina, once a model of ethnic tolerance and multicultural harmony, suddenly exploded into ethnic violence?Focusing on these questions, Friedman provides a comprehensive study of this national group whose plight has riveted governments, the press, and the public alike. With a name reflecting both their religious and their national identity, the Bosnian Muslims are unique in Europe as indigenous Slavic Muslims. Descendants of schismatic Christians from the Middle Ages, they converted to Islam after the Ottoman conquest of Bosnia.The book follows them as they went from victims of crusades during the Middle Ages to members of the ruling elite within the Ottoman Empire; from rulers back to subjects under Austria-Hungary; and later subjects again, this time under the Serbs in the interwar Yugoslav Kingdom and the Communists after World War II. The Bosnian Muslims have survived through it all, even thriving during certain periods, most notably when they were recognized by Tito as a nation.Meticulously tracing their turbulent history and assessing the issues surrounding Bosnian Muslim nationhood in Yugoslavia, Friedman shows us how the mixed secular and religious identity of the Bosnian Muslims has shaped the conflict in which they are now so tragically embroil@H` |

As I see you mention literature on statistical research: I have put one of the most comprehensive link lists for hundreds of thousands of statistical sources and indicators on my blog: Statistics Reference List. And what I find most fascinating is how data can be visualised nowadays with the graphical computing power of modern PCs, as in many of the dozens of examples in these Data Visualisation References. If you miss anything that I might be able to find for you or if you yourself want to share a resource, please leave a comment.
