Bosnia and Herzegovina

After the great war Bosnia was upset with the idea of the Austrian Union and it was not popular in the country, but with Italy now on their front door, Bosnia had no choice but to attempt to curb Italian expansion by joining the Union. After Italy was appointed one of the head positions on the Supreme War and Economic councils in the AWN it seems unlikely that Italy would attempt an invasion, so Bosnia left the Austrian faction officially in 1923. Until 1935 the people and government of Bosnia would continue to lobby for Croatia and Slovenia to leave the Austrian Union and form a united country with them to form a slavic nation, which at the time was being attempted in Serbia and Montenegro, Croatia and Slovenia would continually refuse the requests.

Bosnian officials were fed up with Croatia and Slovenia refusing to join their state and worked with the military to stage an invasion of Serbia, which was now a slavic union with Montenegro, the higher ups knew that slavs would not fight other slavs so the military confused the men into thinking they were defending against Hungary, the war began on the 10th of September 1924 and fighting went on for 19 days before the Bosnian soldiers figured out that they were fighting against fellow slavs, most soldiers simply stopped fighting and they decided to overthrow the government, with little effort required. The perpetrators of the war were put on trial and sentenced to death by hanging for Treason. The slavic union with the now Yugoslavia was still off the table as the people wanted a Union with Bosnia at it’s head, Yugoslavia would not agree to this.
