district and condominium in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Brčko District is a unique administrative area in Bosnia and Herzegovina that functions as both a district and a condominium, meaning it has a special political status that sets it apart from the country's other regions. It matters because this unusual arrangement was created to resolve disputes over territory and governance during the country's post-war reconstruction.

Brčko District (Serbo-Croatian: Brčko distrikt / Брчко дистрикт), officially the Brčko District of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Serbo-Croatian: Brčko distrikt Bosne i Hercegovine / Брчко дистрикт Босне и Херцеговине), is a self-governing administrative unit in north-eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Officially a condominium of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republika Srpska, it was formed in 1999 to reflect the multi-ethnic nature of Brčko and the surrounding areas and their special status within the newly independent Bosnia and Herzegovina. In reality, it functions as a local self-government area, much like the other municipalities in the country. The seat of the district is the city of Brčko.
