The Hungarian Occupation of (parts of) Yugoslavia during World War II (1941 - 1944)

During World War II, the Kingdom of Hungary did indeed engage in the military occupation and subsequent annexation of several regions that were part of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. These regions included Bačka, Baranja, Međimurje, and Prekmurje. In April 1941, Hungary, as an ally of Nazi Germany, participated in the invasion of Yugoslavia. Hungary gained parts of northern Yugoslavia, including Bačka and Baranja, which were predominantly inhabited by ethnic Hungarians. Following the occupation, Hungary initiated a process of annexation, formally incorporating these territories into its own borders. The Hungarian occupation and annexation of these territories resulted in significant demographic changes. The local populations, particularly those of non-Hungarian ethnicity, faced various forms of repression, including forced labor, deportation, and the suppression of their cultural and linguistic rights.

Very well known and remembered in Serbia. My mother was 4 when Hungarians occupied their village in Bačka region. Grandfather was sent in force labor in tyre factory in Csepel, near Budapest. Mother and grandmother were expelled from the house and forced to live in shed like house on the estate. They all survived it. As for January 1942. big raid, it didn't happen only in Novi sad.

[@tamasipacs5442]

Correct video; thanks for sharing! But let's clarify: that territory ("Vajdaság" or "Délvidék" (="Hungarian South") or "Vojvodina") is not "Hungary's Yugoslavia", rather Yugoslavia (or Serbia)'s Hungary, because it was annexed from Hungary to Serbia during 1918-20. The origin of problems in this region the dismemberment of an 1000 years old country and geographical and historical unit by the Entente powers in 1920. This is what causes the conflicts. During the years of communism, it was not possible to talk about the Hungarian victims, only e.g. about the carnage of Novi Sad (=Újvidéki vérengzés). That's why I'm happy about your detailed video. And don't forget that Europe was protected by Hungary heroically against turks in 1456 at Nándorfehérvár (today: Belgrade).

Obviously Hungary is surrounded with it's ex territories that belong to some other states, no more to the Hungary. Serbia, Romania, Slovakia, etc. have territories that belonged to the Hungary, but they don't belong any more. To no state territories are granted for ever, especially in the war.

Obviously a lot of tragedy would have been saved if their the locals in each individual smaller county to decide which state they belong to back in 1920. The revisions done by Hungary in WW2 did not follow the 1000 years borthers hence, they were mostly carefully drawn by Hitler as per meticulous ethnic consideration.

One important information was omitted from this video: The roots of these problems. Namely, the unjust frontiers drawn after WW1. A map on the nationalities of the pre 1918 Hungary would have been helpful. The other important information which was omitted: The Hungarian officers who committed the massacres in Bácska were sentenced to death by the Hungarian(!!!!!!!!!) authorities. But the sentence was not carried out because the Germans helped them to escape into Germany. The lesson of this video: Always the innocent people are suffering. The Hungarian forces took revenge on innocent people because of the partizans. At the end Tito's partizans took revenge on innocent people, killing ten thousands of them. Peace

[@sjoormen1]

those teritories were not hungarian to begin with. Hungary ocupied them for centuries.

[@viragerdei1601]

@@sjoormen1 To begin with: What I talked about in my comment was the ethnically incorrect frontiers drawn after WW1 which caused many problems later. But answering to Your high level comment: xD Study history dude xD Serbs are NOT autochtons in Voivodina. They immigrants from the Balkan peninsule who arrived during and after the Ottoman wars. Well then, you can play with the words, but the fact is this: those territories belonged to Hungary and there was a long period when they had Hungarian majority (10th-16th centuries), then during the Ottoman wars this population perished due to the permanent attacks of the Serbian, Tatar and Turkish marauders, slave hunters. After the Ottoman wars some parts of it were governed from Vienna, some parts of it belonged to Hungary in the 18th-19th century. After 1867 - the Austrian-Hungarian compromise, the whole area belonged to Hungary until 1918/20. After WW1 this area was judged to SHS Kingdom with ethnically totally unjust frontiers. Between 1941-44 this area belonged to Hungary. From 1945 it belonged to the Titoist, mass-killer Yugoslav communist regime. And since the dissolution of Yugoslavia it belongs to Serbia. Shall I sink to Your level saying that Voivodina isn't Serbian, Serbia is just occupying it? I could do it, but I respect the facts. Peace

By the comments I can surely assert that Magyars, Croats and Serbs (I already new about the inclinations of last two) are great revisionists. Magyars maybe even more than others. This is a great basis for another "powder keg" effect. Serbs never forget attrocities and subjugation conducted by Magyars due to their superiority complex freshened up by every goverment in Hun running out of other resourses to keep in power (even though Serbian politicians cease reminding about this for almost 20 years now - reason - two govermants promote similar pseudo-ideological platforms thus presenting eachother as friends in geopolitics terms). So natural aftermath is Magyars tending to keep alive their Jewish-alike ideology of "God given lands thousands years ago" (I'm paraphrasing) . Serbian state apparatus do almost exactly the same thing, just with another denominator - Kosovo and Metohija.

Bácska and Bánság didn't have Serbian or Romanian majority. In the Serbian parts, in Délvidék Serbians were ca. 30% of the population. The majority was Hungarian-German people. And this 30% was due to a Serbian migration from Serbia. I dont know when it happened, the Habsburgs supported the Serbian and German migration to the area against the Hungarians after the liberation of the area from thr Ottoman Empire (ca. in the early 1700's). Then the area was governed by Austria, not Hungary. After 1867 the area re-united with Hungary.

In 1918 was the disaster of the complex Empire of Austro-Hungary. Last Emperor the Habsburg Karl 4, K&K of the Hungary also, proclaimed the freedom of self-determination to form their own states for all the recognized nations of the Empire. So Serbs of the southern Hungary reserect the old province of Vojvodina, supported by the other ethnicities living in area. Also, Hungary was split by the social soviet like Revolution, and didn't existed as a state.

The Axis countries were Germany, Italy, Japan ( Hungary & Romania until they got occupied in 1944) all the other countries you mentioned got invaded and were occupied with puppet govts installed, so not the same situation. I can't see how you can call them "Axis countries" when they were occupied by Axis troops and told what to do.

During the Yugoslav war in 1941, Hungary was not occupied.
