Presentation of Busovača

Busovača was mentioned for the first time on 16 August 1371 in a trade document by which a local merchant sold a certain amount of iron to a certain German merchant in Venice.
Building and wood industries are the economic bases of the region.

Flag of Busovača

The flag of Busovača (photo, no longer online) is white with the coat of arms in the middle. It seems that the proportion of the flag are 3:5 to match the former flag of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The arms on the flag may be more than one color; the numerals of the date look like they might be blue.
