As early as the end of the 19th century, the first larger groups of Slovenes settled in the mining basins in Bosnia and Herzegovina. After the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia and moreover during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, they became aware of their roots again and as the consequence, the informal amical society of the citizens of the Slovene origin had changed into a more important and formal one and it was transformed into an association - society, which according to the authenticated sources, has been active to this very day, thanks to the help and assistance ofthe original native country as well.
