...subordinating civil Croatia and Slavonia to Budapest.
In the latter regions, Croats have been exposed to a regime of Magyarization, which in turn has stimulated Croat nationalism.
The Sabor requests that Bosnia and Herzegovina, under Habsburg occupation from 1878, be incorporated into Croatia because they had been part of the medieval kingdom.
The request is rejected, but the old Military Frontier, with its large Serb population, is abolished and rejoined to Croatia in 1881, increasing the number of ethnic Serbs in an expanded civil Croatia to about twenty-five percent of its population of two million, six hundred thousand.
The change raises ethnic tensions.
