Several months after the occupation and division of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia by the Axis Powers in World War II, the territory of Serbia became known as Militärverwaltung in Serbien or Military Administration in Serbia, by Nazi Germany in 1941 . The Kingdom of Yugoslavia (Serbo-Croato-Slovene ie Serbo-Croatian, Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian, Slovene: Kraljevina Jugoslavija World War II, or the Second World War, (often abbreviated WWII) was a global military conflict which involved a majority of the world's nations, including Nazi Germany and the Third Reich are the common English names for Germany under the regime of Adolf Hitler and the National Socialist German Workers [1] [2] [[3]] The Serbian civil administration preferred to call the entity the Government of National Salvation (Serbian Cyrillic: Влада Националног Спаса, Serbian Latin: Vlada Nacionalnog Spasa) and claimed it was an independent state, though its affairs were dictated by German authorities which did not recognize its sovereignty. Its territories included present-day Central Serbia, northern part of Kosovo (around Kosovska Mitrovica), and region of Banat, composed the territories of Serbia[3] Officially, the affairs of Serbs were to be represented by their own government, led by Milan Nedić, who was their official leader from 1941 to 1944. Political status The region of Central Serbia is not an administrative division of Serbia as such it is under the direct jurisdiction of the republic authorities The Banat was a political entity established after occupation and partition of Kingdom of Yugoslavia by the Axis Powers. Milan Nedić ( Serbian Cyrillic Милан Недић ( September 2, 1878 &ndash February 4, 1946) was a Serbian [4] and was backed by Dimitrije Ljotić with his fascist ZBOR party supporters. Dimitrije Ljotić (Димитрије Љотић ( August 12, 1891, Belgrade - April 22, 1945, Ajdovščina) was a Jugoslovenski narodni pokret "Zbor" ( Yugoslav National Movement "Zbor", commonly known as ZBOR) was the name of the movement formed But Nedić held little real power while most power resided in the administration's de facto governors, which were simply called a Military Commander (Militärbefehlshaber): The Military Commanders of the administration were Franz Böhme in 1941, Harold Turner (1941-1942), Walter Uppenkamp (1942), Egon Bönner (1942-1943), and Franz Neuhausen (1943-1944). Franz Friedrich Böhme (15 April 1885 Austria – 29 May 1947 was a general in the German Army, serving as Commander of the Twentieth Mountain Army [5] Böhme was given emergency powers to govern the territory since July 1941 and served as a defacto governor of the region even before the administration was solidified in August. Böhme was relieved of the position later in 1941. Staatsrat (privy councillor) Harold Turner and SS Untersturmfuhrer Fritz Stracke handled most of the affairs of the administration while Nedić served as a nominal local leader and as a symbol of legitimization of the German presence there. Dr Harald Turner was an SS commander and Staatsrat (privy councillor in the German-imposed and led military regime in Serbia called the Military [4] The regime was unsuccessful in detracting Serbs from rebelling against the occupiers of Yugoslavia and had little support amongst Serbs. This was due to acts of extreme violence and ethnic persecution of Serbs by the German occupiers and Ustashe extreme nationalists in Croatia, most Serbs associated with opposition forces who fought against both the German occupation forces and the Ustashe regime of Croatia. For the militiamen of the Military Frontier, see Uskoci The Ustaša - Croatian Revolutionary Movement ( Croatian: The Independent State of Croatia ( Croatian: Nezavisna Država Hrvatska, NDH was a Puppet state of the Axis powers. The regime attempted to reduce the large Serbian resistance against the German military occupation of Yugoslavia, but continued atrocities by German occupation authorities made such attempts futile.

Geopolitical situation

After the quick defeat and carving up of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, the territory that was not given to the surrounding Axis neighbours, including the new Independent State of Croatia in the west, Italian-occupied territories in the south, Hungarian-occupied territories in the north-west, and Bulgarian-occupied territories in the south-east, became part of a German and collaborationist military administration. The Independent State of Croatia ( Croatian: Nezavisna Država Hrvatska, NDH was a Puppet state of the Axis powers. As they usually did in occupied territories, the Germans installed a puppet government, which was to be a partner in providing security and to implement laws and policies amenable to the Germans.

The internal affairs of Serbia were affected by Nazi racial laws. These were introduced in all occupied territories with immediate effects on Jews and Roma people, as well as causing the imprisonment of those opposed to Nazism. PLEASE TAKE NOTE************ Nazism, which was a short name for National Socialism (Nationalsozialismus refers primarily to the Ideology and practices of the National Socialist German The region of Banat was ruled by its local minority German population. The Banat is a geographical and historical region in Central Europe currently divided between three countries the eastern part lies in Romania (the counties Despite domination by the German occupiers across the military administration, it maintained its own currency, the Serbian dinar which replaced the Yugoslav dinar which existed until 1945, when the Germans and the collaboratists were defeated and replaced by the Yugoslav communist state, which scrapped the Serbian dinar and other currencies of the Independent State of Croatia and Montenegro in 1945. [16]

The administration's first Serbian government leader was Milan Aćimović[17] In late August Aćimović stepped down and was replaced by Milan Nedić, who hoped that his collaboration would save what was left of Serbia and avoid total destruction by Nazi reprisals, he personally kept in contact with Yugoslavia's exiled King Peter, assuring the King that he was not another Pavelic (the Croatian Ustashe leader), and Nedić's defenders claimed he was like Philippe Pétain of Vichy France (who was claimed to have defended the French people while accepting the occupation), and denied that he was leading a weak Quisling regime.

The real power rested with the administration's Military Commanders, who controlled both the German armed forces and Serb collaborationist forces in the administration. In 1941, the administration's Military Commander, Franz Böhme, responded to Serb attacks on German forces by ordering reprisal attacks in which 100 Serbs would be killed for each German killed and 50 Serbs killed for each wounded German. Franz Friedrich Böhme (15 April 1885 Austria – 29 May 1947 was a general in the German Army, serving as Commander of the Twentieth Mountain Army The first set of reprisals were the massacres in Kragujevac and in Kraljevo by the Wehrmacht. The Kragujevac massacre was the massacre of between 2300 to 5000 civilians mostly Serbs and Roma, women and schoolchildren — in Kragujevac, Serbia Kraljevo ( Serbian Cyrillic: Краљево) is a city and municipality located in Serbia at, built beside the Wehrmacht (literally "defense force" was the name of the unified Armed forces of Germany from 1935 to 1945 These proved to be counterproductive to the German forces in the aftermath, as it ruined any possibility of gaining any substantial numbers of Serbs to support the collaborationist regime of Nedić. Additionally, it was discovered that in Kraljevo, a Serbian workforce group which was building airplanes for the Axis forces had been among the victims. [19] The massacres caused Nedić to urge that the arbitrary shooting of Serbs be stopped, Böhme agreed and ordered a halt to the executions until further notice. [20] Approximately 14,500 Serbian Jews - 90 percent of Serbia's Jewish population of 16,000 - were murdered in World War II. [21]

By late 1941, with each attack by Chetniks and Partisans, brought more reprisal massacres being committed by the German armed forces against Serbs. The largest Chetnik opposition group led by Colonel Dragoljub "Draža" Mihailović decided that it was in the best interests of Serbs to temporarily shut down operations against the Germans until the possibility of decisively beating the German armed forces looked possible. Dragoljub "Draža" Mihailović ( Cyrillic script: Драгољуб "Дража" Михаиловић also known as "Чича Дража" or " Mihailović justified this by saying "When it is all over and, with God's help, I was preserved to continue the struggle, I resolved that I would never again bring such misery on the country unless it could result in total liberation". [22] Mihailović then reluctantly decided to allow some Chetniks to join Nedic's regime to launch attacks against Tito's Partisans,. [23] Mihailović saw as the main threat to Chetniks and, in his view, Serbs, as the Partisans[24] who refused to back down fighting, which would almost certainly result in more German reprisal massacres of Serbs. With arms provided by the Germans, those Chetniks who joined Nedic's collaborationist armed forces, so they could pursue their civil war against the partisans without fear of attack by the Germans, whom they intended to later turn against. This resulted in an increase of recruits to the regime's armed forces. [25] One of Mihailović's closest friends, Djuishić joined Nedic's collaboratist forces, and later planned in 1943, under the auspices of the collaboratists to exterminate the Muslims, Croats, and Partisans of the Sanjak region in revenge for Croatian Ustashe and Muslim massacres of Serbs in the Independent State of Croatia in 1941 and to inflict serious damage to the Partisans, but this was never put through. Sanjak and Sandjak (other variants sinjaq sanjaq) are the most common English transcriptions of the Turkish word sancak The Independent State of Croatia ( Croatian: Nezavisna Država Hrvatska, NDH was a Puppet state of the Axis powers.

Aside from German armed forces which were the dominant Axis military in the territory, there were two Serbian collaborationist military forces, the Serbian State Guards (Srpska Državna Straža) and the Serbian Volunteer Command both formed in 1941. Serbian State Guard ( Serbian: Српска државна стража Srpska Državna Straža) also known as nedićevci was the name of the pro-nazi The Serbian Volunteer Corps or SDK (Српски Добровољачки Корпус or Srpski Dobrovoljački Korpus in Serbian, or Serbisches In 1943, the Serbian Volunteer Command was renamed the Serbian Volunteer Corps (Srpski Dobrovoljački Korpus).

Initially, the recruits were largely paramilitaries and supporters of the fascist Yugoslav National Movement "Zbor" (Jugoslovenski narodni pokret "Zbor" , or ZBOR) party of Dimitrije Ljotić.
