The war in Bosnia and Herzegovina has left behind a grim legacy of mines and ERW, which can be found in almost all parts of the country. The leftover mines and ERW have a great impact on the society in Bosnia and Herzegovina and its economy. One fourth of populated places and one third of the population in Bosnia and Herzegovina are affected by mines and ERW. Most of the 13,077 of mine suspected areas were identified between the former confrontation lines, stretching for more than 18,000 km. The estimated size of suspected area contaminated by mines and ERW is about 1,555 sq km, or 3.04 % of the total land surface area. Bosnia and Herzegovina is among the countries with the largest average number of mine and ERW casualties per million inhabitants. For the time-period 1992 – 2010, the country had 7435 mine victims.
