Suffering of the Serbian Orthodox priests of Foča area in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in early months of World War I was followed by unusual and, until then, inappropriate attitude of Austro-Hungarian authorities towards Serbian Orthodox church and Serbian people in general. The motives of military authorities in Foča, as well in whole Bosnia and Herzegovina, had multiple  significance. At one side, they can be seen as simple revenge, where one nation and its cultural, spiritual or educational institutions, was recognised as guilty. At the same time, the other motive could be perceived in the aim of central authorities to finally end so-called Serbian question in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The plan should be conducted  by simple liquidation of the carriers of the national idea of Serbian people, along with applying fierce pressures starting from simple suppression  and negation of historical right on existence and survival of that nation with very strong national awareness  of which, according to that plan, Serbian people had to renounce.
