Republika Srpska


 

The Republika Srpska (????????? ??????, RS) is one of the two political entities that compose the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina (the other entity is the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina). Republic of Srpska comprises 49% of the land area of Bosnia, but only about 40% of the population. All data dealing with population, including ethnic distributions, are subject to considerable error because of the dislocations caused by military action and population transfers. UNHCR population census conducted throughout Bosnia-Herzegovina in the spring of 1996 (shortly after the end of the war) indicated that the Serbs were 96.8% of the overall population of the entity at that point in time.
