November 21, 1995 the Bosnian President Alija Izetbegovic, the Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic and the Croatian President Franjo Tudjman reached an agreement in Dayton – The Dayton Accords – an agreement that would end the bloody war in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Balkan Accord). But, although the agreement indeed ended the Bosnian War and unified a multiethnic state,

called the Young Turks in which they took control of the city, Austria-Hungary feared that Bosnia-Herzegovina would be the next to revolt (Schmitt, 1970; Hamilton & Herwig, 2003). Aehrenthal was also looking to prove that his nation was more than just a “satellite of Germany” (Trueman C. N., 2015). To achieve the goals of both parties, Russia agreed to support Austria-Hungary in annexing Bosnia-Herzegovina and, in turn, Austria-Hungary was to support the Russian use of the Bosporus and Dardanelle

In 1992 when Bosnia declared its independence from the Yugoslav, Orthodox-Christian Serbians were losing power to the Muslim Bosniaks. The Bosnian-Serb forces did not want to be outnumbered by Bosniaks at all. Especially when it came to things like politics. The Serbs that lived in Bosnia & Herzegovina felt threatened by the numerous amount of Muslim power, so they decided to exterminate them. This resulted in a genocide. A genocide is the deliberate killing of a large group of people. This genocide

devastated and destroyed people, communities, families, and traditions. When discussing rape as weapon of war, there are two main modern day conflicts that can not be overlooked. Rape as a weapon of war is brought into light by the wars of Congo and Bosnia.
