	SYMBOLS OF OSIJEK-BARANJA COUNTY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Osijek-Baranja County is in the center of the escutcheon between the Danube and the Drava Rivers (the conjoined bridge, standing for Osijek, and the stylized tower, standing for Baranja, speak of the unity of the County), leaning on Croatia and Slavonia, a part whereof it is (the weasel).
		The County is surmounted by spiritual values, the faith (cross) and the hope (anchor), that support the battle for independence (the star of Mars).
		The symbolism of the bridge is completed by its integrative importance for the Slavonian and for the Baranja portion of the County.

		The intent of this exhibition is primarily to display the traditional dress of Baranja Croats but also some of their customs which were interpreted through their attire and finally some of the significance of this clothing.
		Each Baranja farm owned its own land and cattle requiring machinery to produce clothing and items for everyday use which enabled independence in production and at the same time bore witness to the wealth of the region.

	1999/09/06 13:40 Romanies Leaving Baranja
		After the Serb regime from Krajina collapsed in Baranja, the Croatian legal order moved in and from the very first moment all those who had remained to live under Serb rule were classified in the category of the undesirable.
		Before the latest war in Baranja, about ten thousand Romanies lived there, and this number was not reduced during the rule of the Serb Krajina; when Croatian authorities came here, a large number of the Romanies started gathering the little belongings they had and leaving.
		The Romanies are the natives of Baranja: they came here from Romania seven centuries ago and in time became the known trough-makers, in other words their skilled hands could make out of wood almost anything a man could think of.

	Creation of a Greater Serbia - The region of Baranja
		The real occupation of Baranja began in July of 1991 when tanks crossed the Batina bridge (on the Danube) between Baranja and Backa (Vojvodina), and were deployed over the whole region.
		The location of settlements in Baranja is such that the zones inhabited by Croatians and Hungarians were encircled by Serbian dominated settlements located between the district centre, Beli Manastir (37% Serbs, 32.2% Croats, 8.5% Hungarians), and the Drava River on the west and the Republic of Serbia on the east.
		The Baranja example, together with other examples of genocide in eastern Croatia, had the ultimate aim of cleansing the banks of the Danube of Croats and all that is Croatian, thus creating pure Serbian ethnic settlements.

	2000/06/01 00:12 Baranja: Emigration, "Baby Bust", TB
		Isolated from Croatia, in a remote triangle between the rivers Drava and the Danube and the Hungarian border, Baranja is today paying the price of war, but also of the disintegration of the former state on whose north-west parts (Srem, Backa, Banat) it relied both economically, as well as transportation-wise.
		From August 1991 till mid January 1998, Baranja was excluded from the constitutional-legal order of the Republic of Croatia and during the short-lived "state of Krajina" a large number of Croats left it.
		Managements appointed by the HDZ authorities after the reintegration, were elected according to their political eligibility and not expert skills so, instead of becoming a vehicle of development for the entire region, "Belje" sank deeper and deeper.

		There are Serbs who have always lived in Baranja who can show you their homes which were torched by Croats in 1991, and there are Serbian refugees from other areas with their own more recent experiences of a Croatian attack.
		At the same time, there are said to be 76,000 Croatians driven out of Eastern Slavonia by the most bitter fighting of the 1991 war, their presence in Croatia a potent fuel for further military action.
		On my way to Baranja I had met two of them in Osijek, who said they could name 60 war criminals responsible for the destruction of their homes near Vukovar.

	An International Symposium "Southeastern Europe 1918-1995"
		Baranja remained in the composition of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia until 1941, when it became occupied by Hungarian troops.
		Thus, all of the claims that Baranja is not a territory belonging to the state of Croatia does not have any historical, ethnic nor international legal basis.
		This is true for Baranja as well because since the Croatian-Hungarian agreement, and even before, the division into counties of Croatia and Hungary excluded regional organization and the division of any part of the country into administrative regions.

	1997/01/11 18:56 JOURNALISTS OF RADIO BARANJA BEATEN UP
		Radio Baranja, according to the speech of President Tudjman, was also labelled as a recipient of "Judas coins" (it had received minor aid in equipment from the Open Society Foundation).
		Three members of the crew of Radio Baranja and a lady guest who happened to be present by mere accident, were so badly beaten up that they were forced to seek medical help.
		The beaten up journalists of Radio Baranja, the first victims of the undeclared war against independent media and free-thinking individuals this year, have fared comparatively well, but it is questionable how this event will reflect on further operation of this radio station.

		The flag is in use for a (relatively) long time, and it is probably one of the oldest modern county flags of Croatia (adopted 1994?).

	Bosnia Appeal
		Of the approximately 600,000 Serbs living in Croatia in the early 1990s (representing approximately 12 percent of the population), about one-third were concentrated in northeastern Croatia in the regions of eastern Slavonia and Baranja, on the Serbian border, and western Slavonia and Krajina on the Bosnian border.
		Under an agreement parallel to the Dayton peace accord signed by the Bosnian, Serbian, and Croatian governments in December 1995, eastern Slavonia and Baranja were to remain under UN protection for one year, after which the Croatian government could reassert its control after a new round of negotiations with Serbian leaders.
		Before eastern Slavonia and Baranja were returned to Croatian control in 1998, Croatia also lost the portion of its agricultural land that was located in those regions, as well as its access to the Danube River.

		However, Baranja, Istria (except for the northeasternmost part of the Littoral) and Dalmatia south-east of the mouth of the Neretva river (territory of Dubrovnik) were never constituent units of Croatia before 1939, and before 1945 respectively.
		The post-war settling in Baranja and its legal and political status are significant.

		While this is helpful in strengthening the position of moderate Serb leaders, hardliners have nonetheless continued to block progress in areas under their control, particularly in parts of the Baranja.
		However, the possibility of departures from the southern part cannot be ruled out, owing to the presence of unofficial land crossings between the region and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in this area and the difficulties faced by UNTAES in monitoring these crossings as a result of insufficient personnel.

		Although oral guarantees to appoint two Serbs from the region to the Croatian House of Counties were not fulfilled, a compromise was reached whereby an additional Serb from the Baranja is to be appointed as Assistant Minister for Culture in the Ministry of Education and Culture.
		While this outcome has been accepted by local Serbs, it is the second time that guarantees made during the negotiation of the letter from the Government of Croatia of 13 January 1997 and endorsed by the Council in the statement by its President of 7 March 1997 (S/PRST/1997/10) have not been met.
		By the end of August, the military strength of UNTAES will be reduced to approximately half of its authorized strength with the intention of maintaining one battalion in the Baranja and one in the southern part of the region.

		That JNA, before it was withdrawn from Baranja as well as from the whole of CRO, had fought several battles with the newly established Croatian forces which would always try to penetrate this area through the Hungarian territory (and Hungary let them!); this is a marshy region, with an important border army watchtower Torjanci.
