Washington Agreement

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In March and May 1994, a peace agreement was mediated between the warring Bosnian Croats and the Bosniak-dominated government of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and signed in Washington and Vienna. The Washington Agreement created the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Under the agreement, the combined territory held by the Croat and Bosniak (Bosnian Muslim) forces was divided into ten autonomous cantons. The cantonal system was selected to prevent dominance by one ethnic group over another.
