Trade is the only thing that can prevent another war.

As long as they're contempt and fed they won't start another mess. They love life and they love to eat. And if the country pulls itself out of the economic collapse that occured when Yugoslavia fell apart the chances of war will drastically fall down.
Whic wont occur untill the US and EU pull themselves out since all balkan states are dependant on outside trade. Anything else is just screwing your own population convincing that your diplomats are doing something right.

And keep the peacekeepers in. They're a small unbiased boost to local economies

There are several factors that can prevent a war you know Bet, you will not get to the situation during the Balkan War.

Most efective is keeping people fed and so happy, they'd rather burn their own parliament than go to war.

The hatred in the region is embeded in their DNA. No old blond from DC is going to convince anyone down there to start loving eachother.

None from DC will come if problems arise, if such case occurs, the solution is within the EU.

Not trying to stir up trouble, but I think you wanted to use "content" there. "Contempt" means someone you hate or despise.

"Content" is one of those words that make English so complicated, because the word has two different meanings, and when spoken the different meanings are told by where the accent is used.

"Content" means what's inside, as "The content of the story was not suitable for children."

"Content" means happy, or satisfied, which is the word you wanted there.
