The Yugoslav people had been torn apart by the ethnic tensions during the era of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and in World War II. The Yugoslav Wars were a series of violent conflicts in the territory of the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia that took place between 1991 and 2001. They comprised two sets of successive wars affecting all of the six former Yugoslav republics:

Slovenia
Croatia
Bosnia and Herzegovina
Serbia
Montenegro
Republic of Macedonia

And the autonomous, Kosovo.

The wars were characterised by bitter ethnic conflicts between these peoples, mostly between Serbs on the one side and Croats, Bosniaks or Albanians on the other; but also between Bosniaks and Croats in Bosnia and Macedonians and Albanians in the Republic of Macedonia. The conflict had its roots in various underlying political, economic and cultural problems, as well as long-standing ethnic and religious tensions. The civil wars ended with much of the former Yugoslavia reduced to poverty.

The Yugoslav civil wars can be split into three groups of several distinct conflicts:

1. Wars during the breakup of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Slovenia, Croatian War of Independence and Bosnian War)
2. Wars in Albanian-populated areas (Kosovo War, Southern Serbia conflict and Macedonia conflict)
3. NATO campaigns against Serbia
