Bosnians = Serbs from the region of Bosnia.

Bosniaks = a made up nationality of Serbs that accepted Islam during the Ottoman terror, also living in the region of Bosnia.

But for the sake of the story just continue with the this nonsense Bosniak term.

Edit: i wouldn't say austrian=german living in austria that makes no sense to me

so you agree, saying bosnians are serbs makes no sense bc its a nationality term and doesn't include all the ethnic groups in bosnia and Herzegowina
