The 2013 census in Bosnia and Herzegovina produced two competing official results, each exclusively valid in half the country, which is constitutionally an ethno-political consociation. An International Monitoring Operation inadvertently contributed to a breakdown of agreements among the three government statistical agencies conducting the census. Neither result shows with reasonable certainty how many of the enumerated were actually residents, but comparing them shows where non-random overcounts occurred in geo-politically strategic locations. This article is a postmortem of an internationally monitored census that failed as enumeration but still provides useful data on ethno-religious and political divisions in Bosnian society
