During the Second World War, Bosnia and Herzegovina was part of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. However, the country faced a complex and turbulent situation during this period, characterized by various political and military developments. In April 1941 the Axis powers launched an invasion of Yugoslavia. Yugoslavia was quickly defeated, and Bosnia and Herzegovina came under occupation. Croatia, led by the fascist Ustaše regime, was established as a puppet state under Italian and German influence. The Ustaše regime, led by Ante Pavelić, implemented a policy of extreme nationalism, anti-Semitism, and persecution of minority groups, especially Serbs, Jews, and Roma. Despite the occupation, several resistance movements emerged to fight against the Axis powers and their collaborators. The most prominent resistance groups were the Partisans, led by Josip Broz Tito, and the Chetniks, led by Draža Mihailović. These groups had different ideologies and strategies, leading to conflicts between them. In April 1945, the Partisans, with Soviet support, launched a final offensive against the Axis forces in Yugoslavia. They took over Bosnia and Herzegovina, along with the rest of the country, and effectively ended the occupation.
