Olympics-Team Bosnia and Herzegovina
Background
Until 1992, Bosnia and Herzegovina was a republic in the nation of Yugoslavia. In that year, Bosnia and Herzegovina, along with several other Yugoslav republics, declared independence. But unfortunately, the Serbians declared war on the republic. Still, Bosnia and Herzegovina quickly formed a National Olympic Committee on 4 June 1992 and, on the eve of the 1992 Olympics, was granted provisional recognition by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to compete in Barcelona. Full recognition was granted at the IOC session in Monte Carlo, on 24 September 1993. Despite the civil war in the country, Bosnia and Herzegovina sent competitors to the 1994 Olympic Winter Games in Lillehammer. The official name was Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1992 to 1997, and only Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1997 onwards.
The 14th Olympic Winter Games were held in Sarajevo in 1984, which was then part of Yugoslavia, but Sarajevo is presently the capital city of Bosnia and Herzegovina. [1]
This is an ongoing project to ensure that all Olympians who represented Bosnia and Herzegovina are on Wikitree.
