Slavonian Krajina
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Slavonian Krajina was part of the Habsburg Military Frontier (Vojna Krajina). It was formed out of the territories that Habsburgs conquered from the Ottoman Empire and included southern parts of Slavonia and Syrmia regions. It was mostly located in today's eastern Croatia, and its easternmost parts were in today's Vojvodina, Serbia.

In 1849, this part of the Military Frontier bordered the Principality of Serbia and Ottoman Bosnia to the south, Banat Krajina to the east, Slavonia and Vojvodina to the north, and the Croatian Krajina and civil Croatia to the west.
Some of the important cities and places in Slavonian Krajina were: Vinkovci, Nova Gradiška, Slavonski Brod, Petrovaradin, Sremski Karlovci, Stara Pazova, Zemun, Sremska Mitrovica, etc.
