The Yugoslavian War: Hell on Earth!

This 4 year long war caused unbelievable destruction, sorrow and pain:

  • 200,000 killed
  • 2,000,000 relocated refugees
  • Billions of dollars in destruction of infrastructure, buildings, & houses.

The Wall of Shame
This brick wall in front of the United Nations buildings in Zagreb, Croatia was built as a protest by the grieving mothers of the dead. Each brick represents a family member killed in the war and was meant as a plea for the U.N. to please step in and stop the war before more people are killed.

 
The Mine Fields
During our travels in Bosnia we were cautioned time and again to stay on the main roads and avoid all grassy areas as landmines had been planted everywhere and were still killing people even though the war was over.
