     In 1995, corralled into an airbase in Dayton, Ohio, their leaders agreed to a complex set of formulae that ended the conflict but left Bosnia with an awkward political legacy, formally splitting it into the Serb-dominated Republika Srpska (RS) and a federation of Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims) and Croats.
