Summary/Abstract: The problem of sovereignty in B&H is observed from the aspect of (dis)continuity of the state, keeping in mind that continuity includes the identity of the state in two different moments. It is especially observed from the aspect of external and internal continuity, taking into account constitutive elements of the state which comprise “its being”. Analysis of the internal continuity has shown that the identity of legal order never existed; the power of compulsion was lost with the disappearance of the Bosnian medieval state. State existence of B&H has been analyzed through different periods. Special attention has been devoted to the position and status of B&H as an independent sovereign state.
