Territories controlled by the Serb forces (1992-1995).

This file requires major improvement. It looks like there was a bellum omnium contra omnes but in fact, there were 3 major sides during the conflict 1991-1995 (Serb, Croat, Bosniak).

• Serbia, Vojvodina, Kosovo and Montenegro were not 4 separate entities - in fact, it was one political entity: FR Yugoslavia or Serbia and Montenegro, as some refers to it. Same or similar colors should be used.
• For Serb-controlled territories in Bosnia and Croatia should be used same or similar colors.
• During the most of the war, between Serbia and Montenegro and Serb-controlled territories in Bosnia and Croatia were no borders. Similar colors should be used to point out that fact.
• Same goes for Croat-controlled territories.
• Macedonia was neutral during the conflict, so maybe it is best to use gray color.

See image on the right for the territories controlled by the Serb forces. It is far more clearer than this confusing one. --Mladifilozof (talk) 04:42, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

Why should "Former Yugoslavia wartime animation" show an image of "the territories controlled by the Serb forces"? Nikola (talk) 13:22, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

• First, no they were one entity but all of them had they own voice during vote, same as other republics.
• Second, why? That kind pf merge is highly disputed.
• Third, that is pointless. There were no borders because that was one country! Borders became feal borders after the war. Similar colors is POV. No argument for that.
• Same goes as above.
• Both, Slovenia and Macedonia should be depicted here. as former parts of Yugoslavia.

Extra dot representing Knin in 1995 and 1998 pictures must be removed, there can be only one capital city in country. Border between Central Serbia and Vojvodina, and between Central Serbia and Kosovo must be dashed, because Vojvodina and Kosovo are provinces of Serbia. Also, Novi Sad and Prishtina must be represented with smaller dots. Kosovo was recognized in from 2008 to 2010 as independent state by most of European countries, and most of NATO countries.

Political divisions of Bosnia and Herzegovina

See w:File talk:Former Yugoslavia wartime animation 92-95.gif. In brief, the sui genris entity that is Bosnia and Herzegovina is actually two entities (state or country is a stretch), formed from the territories of three "republics" and their armies from two major international peace agreements. A solid color is not very correct. Int21h (talk) 12:13, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
