Sažetak

ln this paper Slavonia includes the area of five former (until 1993)
municipalities. Three are in the Ilova river-region (Daruvar,
Grubišno Polje and Pakrac), while two (Novska and Nova
Gradiška) are in the Sava river-basin. This is a historically Croatian
area which had, prior to the Turkish occupation (1554-1691), been
organized within the framework of Croatian županija s (district) and
Roman Catholic church paris hes, with Croatian gentry and
Croatian population. During Turkish occupation the area was
devastated, the original secular and clerical organization
destroyed, the Croatian population killed and exiled, and thus
reduced to a small number. The Turks settled some new
inhabitants, mostly Vlachs, on the nearby slopes of Psunj and
Papuk, changing the ethnic structure. With the withdrawal of the
Turks, the region was again settled by Croats from other parts of
Croatia, but also by inhabitants of other nationalities: Vlachs,
Serbs, Czechs, Hungarians, Germans and Italians. In this second
(repeated) colonization a heterogenous ethnic area was created
in which only the Croatian population lived incessantly. Within
these five municipalities in 1991,28.8% ofthe total population were
Serbs.
