These names are often disregarded in casual speech and are often replaced by the term "Budžak" (Serbian Cyrillic: Буџак).
In the first half of the 19th century, then Budžak (now Lazarеvo) was a village near Banja Luka, which was sparsely populated. The inhabitants built houses away from the main road Gradiška, since it was safer to live in during the Ottoman rule. The village expanded during the Austro-Hungarian rule, and it was under Austro-Hungarian rule that a train station was built in Lazarevo, giving it importance in the transport of goods and people. However, this train station has seen a decline in amount of trains and traffic in recent years. A hydroelectric power plant was built in Trappist, which now lays abandoned.[1]
Populationedit
Before the Yugoslav civil wars, Lazarevo was divided into four local communities. According to the census in 1991, this town had 15,786 inhabitants. [2]
