Abstract

This chapter assesses the status of the Sandžak during the creation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes in 1918 and the subsequent efforts by Muslim politicians in the Sandžak to form their own political parties. The authors also discuss the resistance to the government of the new kingdom and the problems faced in their attempts to forge unity between Yugoslavia’s national and ethnic groups. The chapter concludes with an analysis of the ‘Sporazum’ and both the internal and external political conditions that were present prior to the Axis invasion, occupation and partition of Yugoslavia in April 1941.
