	Slavonia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Slavonia is a geographical and historical region in eastern Croatia and western Serbia.
		The Revolutions of 1848 changed Slavonia's status to a separate Austrian crownland, but Slavonia and Croatia were joined into the single Croatia-Slavonia autonomous region, which was restored to the Hungarian crown by 1868, though it kept a certain level of self-rule.
		When the Yugoslav federation was formed after the war, Slavonia became part of the Socialist Republic of Croatia.

	The Hungaro-Croatian Compromise of 1868 (The Nagodba)
		The needs of internal administration of Croatia and Slavonia are fixed at 2,200,000 florins for these ten years during which the existing agreement between the territories of the Hungarian Crown and the other territories of His Majesty lasts.
		Those sections of the Provincial Treasury in Agram, which deal with matters belonging to Croatia and Slavonia's autonomous sphere of influence, are in every respect subject to the control of the said countries.
		Hungary and Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia form one and the same state complexity, alike towards the other territories under His Majesty's rule and towards other countries.

	Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia (1867 - 1918)
		In Croatia and Slavonia this emblem one may see at many contemporary buildings, mostly for administrative or educational purpose, but also on the roof of St. Marc parish church located on the Zagreb's Upper Town, between Parliament (Sabor) and Vice-Roy's Palace (Banski dvori).
		Since during the time became a custom in Kingdoms of Croatia and Slavonia to use flags which are not adequate either in state-juridical or in political sense.
		Of course this was valid only in Croatia and Slavonia, since Dalmatia was at that time in Austrian part (subject to change).

	The Hungaro-Croatian Compromise of 1868 (The Nagodba), III
		Until the territorial integrity of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia, as described in the preceding paragraphs, has been restored, Hungary consents that the Customs Offices in Semlin, Mitrovica, Raca, Klenak and Jakova be separated from their present direct administrative control and subordinated to the Agram Finance Department, as recognition of the territorial link.
		The remainder of the net public revenue of Croatia and Slavonia is to be paid into the Joint Treasury ('12 and 27, XXX, 1868) in payment of the proportion due for Joint Expenses.
		On the contrary all those constitutional rights and fundamental laws, whose enjoyment and protection have in the past extended equally to Hungary and Croatia-Slavonia, and which do not conflict with this agreement, are regarded in future also as joint rights and fundamental laws of the territories of the Hungarian Crown.

	Look at the Future
		After Croatia has regained its territory of western Slavonia and krajina there are still eastern Slavonia, western Srijem and Baranja to be liberated and reintegrated.
		Ethnically speaking in eastern Slavonia, western Srijem and Baranja (where Croatian Serbs declared krajina in 1991) Serbs were never a majority.
		There is no doubt at all concerning international law as from the historic or ethnic point of view to whom the area of eastern Slavonia, western Srijem and Baranja belongs.

		A Pleasant Surprise Croatia's apparent generosity to Slavonia Serbs will displease right-wingers in the ruling party by By Drago Hedl in Osijek February 1997 The Croatian government has announced a surprisingly generous deal for Serbs in Eastern Slavonia once the region, formerly held by Serb rebels, is fully reintegrated into Croatia.
		In Croatia, such initiatives tend to be interpreted as attempts to renew Yugoslavia, and the government uses them to scare the public into submissiveness.
		Croatia's sudden conciliatory stance-especially in giving Serbs in the UNTAES area the right to vote where they choose-is the result of strong external pressure, particularly from the US.
