The documentary series can be viewed on PBS or BBC; however, Get.Factual renamed the episodes to allow them to continue to be shared publicly on YouTube.

The documentary starts by examining the historical evidence pertaining to Yugoslavia. The country's structure has been shaped throughout centuries by the influence of several rulers and empires, resulting in the presence of five nations, three languages, and four distinct faiths. However, the onset of the first ethnic clashes occurred during the early 20th century. The beloved hero and mesmerizing despot Tito achieves the unification of a peaceful Yugoslavia only after the Second World War. However, upon his demise, the nation descends into a state of disorder.

In the second part of this series, Yugoslavia is now undergoing its first democratic elections since the end of WWII, which finally took place in 1990. Nationalists dominate the current era, and the eventual downfall of the ethnically diverse and multicultural state is inevitable. Upon the declaration of independence by Slovenia and Croatia, Yugoslavia becomes embroiled in a civil war. Croatia and Bosnia have had instances of mass deportation, systematic rapes through rape camps, and terrible deaths. For a majority of this time, the international community just passively observed those horrors.

The Srebrenica massacre serves as a significant catalyst for the international community as a whole, prompting its decision to act during a prolonged period of four years of conflict. In the aforementioned year, the conflicting factions enter into a peace deal.  However, conflict quickly reemerges, but in Kosovo this time. NATO intervenes and terminates the conflict - a contentious undertaking without a United Nations authority. The Balkans continue to be seen as a volatile region.  The economic setbacks caused by the conflicts of the 1990s persist throughout the area, and the process of reconciliation remains challenging in the present day.
