History
Yugoslavia emerged from pan-Slavic nationalism within the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
During the World War 1 peace negotiations, nationalists declared a State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs. This was quickly rolled into a Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes.
The official name became Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1929.
