Abstract

The colonialisation of Slavonia was carried out in a systematic fashion through centuries but particularly during the period of WWII. Amongst people inhabiting poor areas Slavonia was famed as a promised land which could feed large numbers of people, where there was a lot of fertile land and favourable living conditions. During the first days of the establishment of the Independent State of Croatia, the paper "Hrvatski list", a daily Osijek newspaper, published an article on April 13th, 1941 bearing the title "New Settlers of Slavonia" in which it calls upon the inhabitants of other, particularly passive Croatian regions, to settle Slavonia.
