It was never part of Croatia.

It does have a considerable amount of Christians living in the city and many of them identify as Bosnian Croat.

Many lives were lost during the war. The center of town has a plaque commemorating both Catholic and Muslim lives lost.

Very beautiful city. Never a part of Croatia.

History of Jajce:

Illyrian Tribes (Pre-Roman)

Roman Empire (1st-5th Century CE)

Bosnian Kings: Tvrtko I (1377-1391), Tvrtko II (1404-1418), Stjepan Tomaš (1443-1461)

Ottoman Pashas (1463-1878)

Austro-Hungarian Administration (1878-1918)

Kingdom of Yugoslavia (1918-1941)

Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (1945-1992, under Tito and later governments)

Bosnia and Herzegovina (Post-War) (1995-present)

The timeframe some ignorant people have called into question is the 9th - 10th Century from which the Kingdom of Croatia arose. The preceding periods were still considered Slavic migrations and the Kingdom of Croatia did not exist, yet.

Despite the areas around Jajce containing Catholic style churches and Croatian influence -- there is no direct evidence to say that Jajce itself was under the Kingdom of Croatia.

What does direct evidence mean?

While there are many references to various regions in the Kingdom of Croatia in medieval sources, Jajce is not explicitly mentioned in the major chronicles of the time, especially those written by Croatian historians or those detailing the Kingdom of Croatia's territorial boundaries. For example, Pavao (Paul) Radonić, a prominent Croatian historian, does not mention Jajce as part of the Kingdom of Croatia in his writings.

Medieval Croatian chronicles such as those of Thomas the Archdeacon (12th century) or later sources from Duke Branimir’s period do not list Jajce or the broader Bosnian territories under direct Croatian rule.

While the Kingdom of Croatia extended over large parts of the western Balkans, Jajce lies in the central region of modern Bosnia.

The Kingdom of Croatia's power during the 9th and 10th centuries was concentrated more towards the Dalmatian coast and western Bosnia, with Zadar, Split, and Dubrovnik as prominent centers. Jajce, being situated inland and in the midst of mountainous terrain, was strategically distant from the key urban and political centers of medieval Croatian power.

—🇭🇷❌🇧🇦 NEW: Croatian media condemned the speech of the Supreme Leader of the People's Republic of Bosnia, Walter Sarajevo, who stated that the city of Dubrovnik was historically a Bosnian royal city.

Walter attended the commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the liberation of the city by the Bosnian Imperial army.

The city of Dubrovnik is currently located in the territory of Croatia, although it was historically part of Bosnia.

Making up history is fun.

#BREAKING | Federal Reserve Cuts Key Interest Rate by 25 Basis Points

The U.S. Federal Reserve announced a 0.25% reduction in its benchmark federal funds rate on Wednesday, lowering it to a target range of 4.00%-4.25%. The decision, widely anticipated amid cooling inflation and softening labor market conditions, marks the central bank's first rate cut since holding steady at 4.25%-4.50% in July.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell highlighted rising downside risks to employment in his post-meeting remarks, signaling potential for additional easing before the end of 2025. Markets reacted positively, with U.S. stocks climbing and the dollar weakening against major currencies.
