    Default National heroes for your country.

    Fantomet - Ĺnden som gĺr (The Phantom - The Ghost Who Walks)


    Donald Duck



    Honorary mentions are Lucky Luke, Asterix and Conan but they are not strongly integrated into 'folkesjela'(the folk soul) like Donald and the Phantom.

    There is no renowned Bosniak figure I would consider a "national hero", given the very young and complex nature of our ethnogenesis.

    I would consider those Bosniaks who stayed in Sarajevo during the war and fought alongside a large amount of Bosnian Serbs/Bosnian Croats (mixed marriages), to keep Sarajevo from being completely annihilated.

    1424 days. Longest siege in military history. 3 times longer than Stalingrad.
    The city still hasn't returned to it's pre-war population.

    And they were embargoed, had essentially no weapons and no lines of communication.

    Those guys I admire. Not only for their courage but also for embodying the dying, egalitarian aspirations of Yugoslavia.

    It is serious.

    Donald Duck and Fantomet are very popular here and they are pretty much integrated into our culture as icons.

    If you get Donald Duck, we get Scrooge McDuck.

    I guess Elez Dervišević could be considered a Bosnian hero.

    Well he is a Scot after all


    Scrooge is very popular here too, actually all of Duckburg is.
