 | | Five years later, in 1934, the Ustase, with Italy's help, assassinated the king in Marseilles, an act that threw Yugoslavia into turmoil and made it vulnerable to Nazi exploitation. |
 | | Shortly after that, the Ustase formed the Independent State of Croatia (Nezavisna Drzava Hrvatska, NDH), leaving the rest of Yugoslavia to fend for itself. |
 | | The Ustase at first attempted to drive the Serbs out of Croatia, but when that proved to be impossible, they set up several concentration camps, the most infamous being the camps at Jasenovac, about 97km (60 miles) south of Zagreb on the Sava River. |
