The 1992 war in the former Yugoslavia was the first conflict since WWII to be formally judged as genocidal in character. Many of the participants were charged with terrible war crimes.
In November 1995, it was in Dayton, Ohio, that the world community — led by the U.S. State Department — brought the leaders of the three warring nations to the table for weeks of conflict resolution. The Dayton Peace Accords is the name given to the treaty they negotiated to stop the war.
