Herzegovinian rebellion

Years: 1875 - 1875

The Herzegovinian Rebellion of 1875 is the most significant of the rebellions against the Ottoman rule in Herzegovina.

The uprising is precipitated by the harsh treatment of the mostly Catholic Croat and Orthodox Serb population under the Bosnian beys and aghas of the Ottoman province of Bosnia.

"[the character] Professor Johnston often said that if you didn't know history, you didn't know anything. You were a leaf that didn't know it was part of a tree."

― Michael Crichton, Timeline (November 1999)
