Your perception of all such folk as white (which they are by U.S. definition) is evidence that, like most Americans, you have grown up to see only one significant identity difference between people: white and black, specifically. But of course, people separate themselves in many more ways. In the countries of the former Yugoslavia, the aspects of identity defining difference are language, religion, ethnicity (skin color, appearance difference that you may not recognize) cultural/historical differences. Also, there are historical reasons -- your group killed people from my group way back in this year, no, your group started it with.... etc. Are these differences important enough to cause people to want to live in separate countries? That isn't a question with a rational answer. Some people thought so, some didn't. Was the oppression of the British worth fighting the U.S. War of Independence over? Mostly just some white people of the same height and language and religion ...

I think you meant "Bosniaks" and not "Bosnians". THe only major difference is religion. The majority of Bosniaks are Muslims, the majority of Serbs are Orthodox Christians, and the majority of Croats and Slovenes are Roman Catholic. Croats, Serbs, and Bosniaks are the same people (on a sidenote). They listen to the same music, look the same, speak very very similarly, and their cultures are the same. The only difference is religion.
