The main characteristic of the Bosnia-Herzegovinian population to the 1992–1995 war was multinationalism, which accounted for three of the most numerous nations (Muslims, Croats and Serbs), than the nations of the former Yugoslav republics (Slovenes, Montenegrins and Macedonians) and 18 national minorities (Albanians, Austrians, Bulgarians, Czechs, Germans, Greeks, Hungarians, Italians, Jews, Poles, Romanians, Roma, Russians, Ruthenians, Slovaks, Ukrainians, Turks and Vlachs). Although their share in total the Bosnian-Herzegovinian population was about one percent, but during the communist period of their civil and national rights were guaranteed in all the Yugoslav and Bosnian-Herzegovinian constitutions after 1946. After the 1992–1995 war, the rights of national minorities were regulated in the spring of 2003 under the Law of Protection of National Minorities. However, in everyday life, they are not able to realize all their national and civic rights. In contrast to the communist period, according to the census of 2013, the national minorities are not specifically stated, but are classified as “Other”. So today, we have no information about the many ethnic minorities that recorded the census of 1991.
