===Early history===
The first writings on Drvar date back to the 9th century. In the first half of the 16th century (approximately 1530) residents of this area, under the leadership of a Vojnović from [[Glamoč]], migrated to the surroundings of Zagreb (Metlika Zumberak and four surrounding villages). The greater area was populated in Roman Times as evidenced by the remains of Roman roads
===Austro-Hungarian Rule===
In 1878 Drvar, along with the rest of Bosnia and Herzegovina, was [[Austro-Hungarian
Eventually, poor labor conditions led to the first organized strikes in Drvar in 1906.
1918 saw the fall of the [[Austro-Hungarian Empire]] and the rise of the [[Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes]], but this did not help the plight of the workers in Drvar, who became better organized and rose up to strike again in 1921.▼
===Kingdom of Yugoslavia===

From 1929 to 1941, Drvar was part of the [[Vrbas Banovina]] of the [[Kingdom of Yugoslavia]]. In 1932, an economic crisis resulted in the layoff of 2,000 workers.

In June 1941 Ustaše arrested a large group of prominent Drvar citizens, and took them to Risovac near Bosanski Petrovac, where they were tortured, killed and thrown into a pit.{{Citation needed|date=March 2016}} After the Ustaše imprisoned all Serb men from Drvar during June and July 1941, they began with the preparation to imprison and kill all Serbs from Drvar, regardless of their age and sex, including all women and children.<ref>{{harv|Dedijer|Miletić|1989|p=221}}:"Posle odvođenja Srba muškaraca iz Drvara u toku juna i jula 1941 god počele su ustaške vlasti vršiti pripreme za odvođenje i ubistvo svih Srba iz Drvara bez razlike u pogledu pola i starosti: bilo je predviđeno da se imaju pobiti i sve žene i sva deca."</ref>
The genocidal activities of the Ustaše forced the targeted Serb population to organize an uprising known as [[Drvar uprising]]. The rebels were organized into the Kamenički, Javorje, Crljivičko-zaglavički, Boboljusko-cvjetnički, Trubarski, Mokronog and Tičevski

On 3 August 1995, the [[Armed Forces of Croatia|Croatian Armed Forces]] with the help of [[Croatian Defence Council|Bosnian Croats]] began shelling Drvar, from the mountain of Šator. Two Drvar citizens were killed and older men and women began to evacuate to Petrovac. One day later, the Croatian Government armed forces began "Operation Storm", called by European Union Special Envoy to the Former Yugoslavia Carl Bildt, "the most efficient ethnic cleansing we've seen in the Balkans",<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=BInS_EkHIUsC
====Aftermath====
In late 1995, after the [[Dayton Agreement|Dayton Peace Accord]] was signed, Drvar became part of the [[Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina]], after which Croat politicians enticed up to 6,000 Bosnian Croats, mainly displaced persons from central Bosnia, to move to Drvar, by promising such things as jobs and keys to vacant homes. A further 2,500 Croat [[Croatian Defence Council|HVO]] troops and their families were stationed there, also occupying the homes of displaced Bosnian Serb citizens.<ref name="impunity">[[International Crisis Group]], [http://www.crisisgroup.org/~/media/files/europe/balkans/bosnia-herzegovina/bosnia%2019.ashx Impunity in Drvar] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110212025944/http://www.crisisgroup.org/~/media/files/europe/balkans/bosnia-herzegovina/bosnia%2019.ashx |date=February 12, 2011 }}, 20 August 1998</ref>

Drvar was already well known in the Austrian-Hungarian era due to the high-quality wood coming from that area. The Drvar area is still one of the largest logging and wood-processing environments in BiH. One of the major problems in this area is the widespread corruption connected to this wood-processing industry. It is estimated that during 2004 about 110,000m <sup>3</sup> of wood 'disappeared'. Average price of 1m <sup>3</sup> of timber (second class) is about 100 BAM (100 Convertible
