The Bosnian Pony, which originates in the former Yugoslavia, bears a startling number of similarities to both the Hucul and the Konik pony breeds.
They are all ancient breeds, and the Bosnian pony is considered to have developed through a cross between the Tarpan and the Asian Wild Horse (also known as Przewalski's Horse).
Due to the controls imposed on the breed, the Bosnian pony is an extremely useful and functional animal, quite capable of light farm work, light draft, pack, and riding.
After the death of Ceslav and the dissolution of his kingdomBosnia was ruled by native bans or chiefs.
In 968 however, Bosnia was conquered by the Croatian king Kresimir and in 1019 the whole north-western part of the Balkan Peninsula came under the sway of the Eastern Roman Emperor, Basil II.
Bosnian Serbs, supported by neighboring Serbia, responded with armed resistance in an effort to partition the republic along ethnic lines to create a "greater Serbia." Full recognition of its independence by the United States and most European countries occurred on April 7, and Bosnia-Herzegovina was admitted to the United Nations on May 22, 1992.
