Yugosslavia was formed as the State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs in 1918, following the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It was comprised of a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire (modern-day Croatia, Sloveia, and Bosnia-Herzengovina), the Kingdom of Serbia (modern-day Serbia, Kosovo, and Macedonia), and the Kingdom of Montenegro.
