Bugojno

When the German and Italian Zones of Influence were revised on 24 June 1942, Bugojno fell in {{ill|Zone III (NDH)|lt=Zone III|hr|Treća zona (NDH)}}, administered civilly by Croatia and militarily by Croatia and Germany.{{sfn|Trgo|1964|p=341}}

The municipality has an average elevation of 570 metres above sea level. Much of its 366 km sq. is forested. The terrain is mountainous with several prominent features. Stožer (1,662 m), Kalin (1,530 m) and Rudina (1,385 m) are the tallest mountains in Bugojno.

The town and municipality is inhabited by a Bosniak majority. The town, prior to the war, was multi-ethnic, with virtually identical numbers of Croats, Bosniaks and Serbs. Today, only 325 Serbs live in the town, with 376 in the municipality.{{cite web|title=BUGOJNO: I Bog i svijet znaju da su Vučići pravoslavci!|year=2015|publisher=Bugojno danas|url=http://www.bugojno-danas.info/bugojno-i-bog-i-svijet-znaju-da-su-vucici-pravoslavci/}}{{cite web|title=BiH: Bugojno opština bez Srba|year=2014|publisher=Novosti|url=http://www.novosti.rs/vesti/planeta.300.html:514769-BiH-Bugojno-opstina-bez-Srba}} The number of Croats in the municipality has gone down from 16,031 to 5,767 (2013 census).{{cite web|title=Izumiru bugojanski Hrvati i Srbi|year=2008|publisher=Nezavisne|url=http://www.nezavisne.com/novosti/bih/Izumiru-bugojanski-Hrvati-i-Srbi/18806}}

In 1991 town of Bugojno had a population of 22,641 including;

• Bosniaks (6,878)
• Croats (6,836)
• Serbs (6,809)
• Yugoslavs (1,449)
• and 667 others

The climate in Bugojno is continental. Summers are usually warm and dry, with average temperatures that can reach or exceed 30°C. Sunny days are common, but occasional short showers can occur, especially in late summer. Nights are relatively cool, providing relief from the daytime heat. Winters are cold and snowy. Temperatures often drop below 0°C, and the snow cover remains on the ground for most of the winter. Frost is common, which can cause ice and slippery conditions on roads and sidewalks. Climate change increasingly affects this region, resulting in variations in precipitation frequency and intensity, as well as temperature extremes. The hottest day on record was August 24, 2007, at 39.3°C, while the coldest was February 17, 1956, at -31.2 °C. The highest annual precipitation was recorded in 1895 at 1117 mm, while the lowest was in 2011 at 522 mm.{{cite web |last1=Catic |first1=Anel |title=Klimatski podatci za grad Bugojno |url=https://novovrijeme.com/klima/bugojno/ |website=Novovrijeme.com |publisher=Novo vrijeme |access-date=12 June 2024}}

Bugojno was once a major industrial centre in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In 1981, Bugojno's GDP per capita was 98% of the Yugoslav average.{{cite book | title=Atlas svijeta: Novi pogled na Zemlju | year=1984 | edition=3rd | publisher=Sveučilišna naklada Liber | location=Zagreb | language=hr | editor1-first=Radovan | editor1-last=Radovinović | editor2-first=Ivan | editor2-last=Bertić}} However, hardships caused by the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina took a toll on the industry and overall economy of Bugojno. Apart from industry, forestry has been an important contributor to the local economy and continues to be. In recent years, agriculture has grown in sustaining the Bugojno's economy as many people are investing in land and agronomy.

The local chapter of the HPS is HPD "Stožer", founded on 19 October 1935, and with 27 members in 1936 under the Lavoslav Jerg presidency.{{cite magazine |date=1936 |orig-date=1936-05-15 |first=Josip |last=Plaček |title="Stožer" — Bugojno |page=234 |magazine=Hrvatski planinar |issn=0354-0650 |volume=32 |issue=7–8 |url=https://www.hps.hr/hp-arhiva/193607.pdf |language=hr}}{{rp|215}} Membership rose to 28 in 1937 and Emil Havranek was elected its president.{{cite magazine |date=1937 |orig-date=1937-05-05 |first=Josip |last=Plaček |title=Izvještaj tajnika |pages=221–252 |magazine=Hrvatski planinar |issn=0354-0650 |volume=33 |issue=7–8 |url=https://www.hps.hr/hp-arhiva/193707.pdf |language=hr}}{{rp|239}} Membership rose to 30 in 1938.{{cite magazine |date=1938 |orig-date=1938-05-05 |first=Josip |last=Plaček |title=Izvještaj tajnika |pages=222–254 |magazine=Hrvatski planinar |issn=0354-0650 |volume=34 |issue=7–8 |url=https://www.hps.hr/hp-arhiva/193807.pdf |language=hr}}{{rp|240}}
