just like u mentioned in your introduction post....bosnian identity exists for more than 1000 years
our country never changed its name unlike lets say serbia who had various names in early stages
the other interesting stuff are borders of bosnia which are preety much the same since 15 th century...neither serbia nor croatia have that long continuity...especialy serbia...it's borders changed dramaticly through out history...but what is most important that border never crossed river drina...drina is natural border between bosnia and serbia....the same goes for croatia...croatian territory never crossed river sava,una and mountain dinara
on the other hand bosnia did spread its teritory on neighboring countries both as independent medieval kingdom and during ottoman empire

Since the shitstorm has died out I will try to answer your question.
Bosniaks and Serbs are similar in genetics and everything (just like Serbs and Croats are) but they are not the same people. I already said on another forum that many, many Serbs in Bosnia descend from Vlachs that were serbified, but that is considered an insult among them today because they are such great pan slavists that they cant stand that many of them dont have Slavic origins.
Now, after the Ottomans pulled out, some Serb muslims from Serbia migrated to Bosnia, and those are the Bosniaks that can be said to have Serbian origin. Alija Izetbegovic has family from Belgrade for instance.

There were no partisans back in 1920s. Anyway even latter , short before ww2 partisans naver had bigger influence within today croatian borders. Neither they had significant presence there. Only during WW2 certain amount of serbs in croatia joined partisan units.
Anyway after WW1 and creation of yugoslavia there was yugo royal army , and if by this "Karadore" you imply Karadjordjevic , you are right as I said it is serbian royal family.

Yes, in the Krajina area of Bosnia (large parts of it today lays in Republika Srpska), Turks placed Orthodox Vlachs to defend the borders against the Austrohungarians. These Vlachs assimilated because of their religion into the Serbian national identity. There are also Croats and Bosniaks who have Vlach ancestors, but very very little compared to Serbs, since they both were Orthodox...
