Yugoslavia were 2 time WC Semi Finalists, and 2 time Euros Runner Up. That's far better than anything Norway has done

and bosnia was just 1/6th of yugoslavia, so i dont know if they should really get full credit for all those achievements

It's no different than Serbia or Croatia getting credit for it, both of which have happened

Seems pretty obvious that none of the former Yugoslav states should be seen as 'inheritors' or successors to the old Yugoslavia national team. If you look through their old squds, it seems like a fairly even mix of nationalities in there.
