Summary/Abstract: If we look deep into the history of our country from today's perspective, it seems that there are no easy solutions for Bosnian people and Bosnian problems. A radical revision of the many muddy terms and wrong values that have been deliberately inserted into the Bosnian daily routine that have contaminated Bosnian society and Bosnian people, and their understanding of themselves, this is classified in our time as the tasks and duties of Bosnian state-thinkers. It is worth to understand the Bosnian environment and its relationship towards two categories: Bosnian statehood and the possibility of Bosnian nation forming. Bosnia should be considered in accordance with contemporary understandings of Bosnian history, Bosnian millennial religious diversity, and with modern understandings of the people, nation and state. It would help, without anti-Serb, anti-Croat or anti-Bosniak tones, to unmask and crystallize ideologically wrapped and covert methods that are support of realization disabling of two categories: Bosnia as a state and the Bosnian people as a nation. Such methods and actions are the key substance of Serbian and Croatian national programs for over 160 years, and the establishment of these two nations finds its base strength in mutual antagonism and spreading its sovereignty to Bosnian territory. So the question is: Why the Bosnian people did not become a political people, i.e. nation, when the other Balkan nations became that?
