Bosnian Physical Geography • The Dinaric Alps in Bosnia made it difficult to travel • Because the mountains are so large, it is difficult to get over them • They provide a barrier between different cultural groups • When the different groups come in contact, there is a lot of misunderstanding because they don’t ever experience each other’s cultural ideas • Available building sites • The capitol, Sarajevo, is centrally located between rivers • The rivers provide means of travel and a way to export goods • They also provide a source of food and water • The area around the rivers is fertile and good for farming • The land in Sarajevo is flat, unlike the mostly mountainous terrain of Bosnia, therefore, easy to build on • Defending the capitol • There are mountains surrounding the capitol on most of its sides • This makes it easy to spot attackers and defend the area
