The Bosnian War is the worst conflict on European soil since World War II. We went to Sarajevo and Banja Luka to meet Selma and Danilo, and learn what growing up in the country is like for the post-war generation.

Selma and Danilo belong to two of the three ethnicities making up Bosnia and Herzegovina's people. To this day, ethnicity is tightly linked to religious denomination: the Balkan country is home to Bosniak Muslims, Orthodox Serbs and Catholic Croats.

The groups fought a civil war against each other for four years: 100,000 people died, millions were displaced, and convictions of genocide and war crimes still cast a shadow on the country's unity. We went to Sarajevo and Banja Luka to meet the post-war generation left to build their country's future without having the same version of the past.

NB: We chose to identify Banja Luka as the capital of RS because it is, de facto. Sarajevo is that of the entire country, but the seat of government of the Republika is in Banja Luka.
