( Excerpt from the Preface
)
This work, making no huge claims, is an attempt to more closely explain the core of the key events that shook the occupied Yugoslav Kingdom from 1941 until 1945.
Unlike the clear front lines of WW I, in World War II 22 formations were active on the soil of the occupied Yugoslav Kingdom. These formations had their own and very often covert interests, even if they were on the same side. Unfortunately, interests of the three great power blocks (theWest, Germany and the Soviet Union) clashed on this terrain and the Western politics had undergone a radical shift in political affiliation turning from the Monarchy to the Communists.
Bearing all this in mind the best approach would be to show a chronological record of events illustrated by photos and maps. “Main Events” refer to the formations, their leaders, the war objectives, the actions, the victims, the international factor and the weapons.
