The '''Yugoslav Wars''', also sometimes called the '''Third Balkan War''', were a series of wars that occurred throughout ~~much of the 1990s~~ in the region that made up the former country of Yugoslavia (now Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Kosovo).

The '''Yugoslav Wars''', also sometimes called the '''Third Balkan War''', were a series of wars that occurred throughout 1990 until 2006 in the region that made up the former country of Yugoslavia (now Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Kosovo).

It is commonly referred to as the "last war in Europe" (which is wrong since years later the [[War in Donbass]] would occur), and it has been the deadliest war in Europe since [[World War II]]. I stand out for the large number of [[war crimes]] perpetrated by all parties, which included the indiscriminate [[murder]] of civilians, [[genocide]], and [[ethnic cleansing]].
