Bosniaks are a South Slavic ethnic group, native to the region of Bosnia of which the majority are Muslims (90%) .

The Bosniaks (Bošnjaci/Бошњаци, feminine: Bošnjakinja/Бошњакиња) are a South Slavic ethnic group native to the Southeast European historical region of Bosnia, [3] which is today part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, who share a common Bosnian ancestry, culture, history and language.

Who are Bosniaks? Bosniaks are an ethnic group in the Southeastern part of Europe, mainly in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also present in the neighboring region of Sandzak (Serbia and Montenegro) and countries that were part of former Yugoslavia (North Macedonia, Kosovo, Croatia, and Slovenia).

Today, term Bosniaks (including the spelling variant Bosniacs) is primarily used in English language as a designation for ethnic Muslims, while the term Bosnians has kept its general meaning, designating all inhabitants of Bosnia.

The largest non-Serb minorities are Bosniaks (Muslims) and Albanians, the former concentrated in the northern mountains and the latter along the Adriatic coast. Nearly three-fourths of the population of the coastal community of Ulcinj is Albanian.

Bosniaks are mostly Muslims, and the term is often used interchangeably with ‘Bosnian Muslim’. The term Bosniak dates back to Ottoman times when it described Bosnians of all faiths, but was more broadly embraced during the war of the 1990s by Muslims and others who felt bound to historical Bosnia and Herzegovina and its culture.
