The Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Serbian: Republika Bosna i Hercegovina / Република Босна и Херцеговина) was a state in Southeastern Europe. It existed from 1992 to 1995. It is the direct legal predecessor to the modern-day state of Bosnia and Herzegovina.[3]

Article 1 of the new Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina states: "The Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the official name of which shall henceforth be 'Bosnia and Herzegovina,' shall continue its legal existence under international law as a state, with its internal structure modified as provided herein and with its present internationally recognised borders remaining unchanged…" This constitutional provision confirms the continuation of the legal existence of the former Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina within its internationally recognised borders. However, the new Constitution does not specify the fundamental structure of the state. It can, therefore, be concluded that the state structure of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which was a unitary state, was carried forward to ensure continuity of legal existence, while its modified internal structure now reflects a greater degree of decentralisation.
