History edit

The Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes was formed in 1918 and was initially divided into counties and districts (this division was inherited from previous state administrations). In 1922, new administrative units known as oblasts (Serbo-Croatian: oblasti / области) were introduced and the whole country was divided into 33 oblasts. Before 1922, territory of Bačka Oblast was part of the Novi Sad County.

In 1929, 33 oblasts were administratively replaced with 9 banovinas and one district, and territory of Bačka Oblast was administratively included into the Danube Banovina.

Geography edit

The Bačka Oblast included western parts of Bačka and region of Baranja. It shared borders with the Belgrade Oblast in the east, the Syrmia Oblast in the south, the Osijek Oblast in the west, and Hungary in the north-west.
