Velika Kladuša (Large Kladusha) is a compact town located in the corner of the Bosanska Krajina Region in Bosnia and Herzegovina, while the Grabarska River flows south of town and below the Kladuša Castle.
The Town was Mentioned in October 30, 1280 by the name Cladosa, but was said during the Byzantine Empire it was assumed it started to grow slowly until the 13th century, when in 1464 it was controlled by two different Hungarian kings.
After the Ottoman Pariod and Austro-Hungarian occupation in 1878, Velika Kladuša (like many other towns and fortresses) put up one of the largest and hard fought battles of the War, as the Town was heavily supplied and ready!
Nevertheless, it fell under their rule and started rapidly developing infrastructure with the Town Mosque and the Church of St. Nicholas, schools and other important structures.
During WWII the Town of V. Kladuša fought on the Side of the Yugoslav Partizans and even at one point turned to the N**i's side, but was a surprise attack against the German Facists, who were attacked from all sides.
In Socialist Yugoslavia, a new company arised, called Agrokomerc, with headquarters in V. Kladuša. It was one of Yugoslavia's most largest and most popular food companies during the Cold War and with about 13.000 workers turned Velika Kladuša from one of the poorest regions into one of the richest in Socialist Yugoslavia at the time!
The Bosnian War was announced but V. Kladuša did not want war, just like many other cities and villages around the Bos Krajina Region and formed the Autonomous Provence of Western Bosnia (APZB), with Kladuša Fortress as the Capital. You can visit Young Square, Town Mosque, Kladuša Fortress and Old Town, Town Park and St. Nicolas Church. The town is not very close to other towns, since the roads are very narrow and small.

Kozarac is a Town located next to the Kozara Mountains and in between Potkozarije and Prijedor, whilst the Kozaračka River flows through Town.
The Town has a Long period of history, but in the Easiest way I can say it is through Ottoman Times when the Kozaračka Tower (Kula) was built (and was declared a National monument) and Austro-Hungarian Period.
It was all until the Bosnian war when most of the Serb population of Kozarac left while most of the Population was mostly already Bosniak Muslims.
Most of the Population from Kozarac and Prijedor where actually fighting against the Serbs from claiming Mt. Kozara and around the surrounding area, but failed to do.
There is a Monument in the Centre dedicated to the fallen Solders of Kozara and Kozarac and the Tower is just up North of the Centre and is one of the more Muslim populated Town in the Republic of Srpska with nearly 12 Mosques!
