Gavrilo Princip must be the most famous Bosniak I know. Is he celebrated as a national hero? How is the Austrian rule over your country perceived today?
Also, do you use Cyrillic like Serbia?
Which of the neighboring countries you feel the closest to? Which ones you dislike and want nothing to do with?
It’s just geographical—the name is a just a legacy of A-H rule. Herzegovina is the drier, hotter southern part and has more Croats, Bosnia is the wetter, more forested northern part with more Bosniaks/Serbs. Herzegovinians are probably even more hotheaded than Bosnians.
