The first 1000 people to use the link below will get a free trial of Skillshare Premium Membership! Croatia is building a $500 million USD bridge linking its territories, that will potentially block Bosnia and Herzegovina from the Mediterranean Sea. To prevent Bosnia and Herzegovina from being landlocked, it owns a small strip of land along the Adriatic Sea. However, this land splits Croatia, causing border check logistics issues. To solve this problem, Croatia is building a bridge around Bosnia, called the Peljesac bridge. This bridge could increase connectivity between north and southern Croatia, improve tourism, and boost economic growth. However, it could also destroy Bosnia’s hopes of building a major port, causing political issues. 0:00 - Background 1:43 - The First Attempt 2:27 - The Second Attempt 4:29 - Peljesac Bridge 5:43 - Advantages/Disadvantages 7:07 - Construction
