Before early 1990s, both countries were constituent republics of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia as the SR Bosnia and Herzegovina and SR Montenegro respectively. Following the breakup of SFR Yugoslavia Bosnia and Herzegovina declared independence after the 1992 independence referendum which led to Bosnian War in which Republic of Montenegro (at the time constituent federated state of the newly established FR Yugoslavia) supported Republika Srpska.[3]
