Creation of Yugoslavia

  • At the end of World War I, Austria-Hungary was broken apart.
  • Austria became a small territory, and Hungary lost its eastern province to Romania.
  • A peace settlement created Yugoslavia, which brought the region's Serbs, Bosnians, Croatians, Macedonians, Montenegrins and Slovenes together.
  • Eventually a civil war broke out in the 1990s.
