10 Largest Municipalities
Only Sarajevo and Banja Luka have more than 200,000 inhabitants (according to the last census in 1991). Current estimates include Tuzla, Bijeljina and Zenica in this list, however neither had reached the population of 150,000 in 1991. Due to massive migrations during the 1992-1995 war and lack of a state-wide official census, it is almost impossible to determine the current population in Bosnia, and the estimates are often exaggerated for political purposes, or local rivalries.

Famous quotes containing the word largest:
“The eager fate which carried thee
Took the largest part of me:
For this losing is true dying;
This is lordly man’s down-lying,
This his slow but sure reclining,
Star by star his world resigning.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
