The Echo of Change on the Habsburg Throne in 1916, in Croat and Catholic Media in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the Occasion of the 100th Anniversary of the Death of Emperor Francis Joseph I and the Accession of Karl I (and IV) to the Throne

Summary/Abstract: Before the First World War, 27 newspapers of a religious, political, educational and cultural character were edited and published in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Apart from three newspapers, published in Sarajevo, that specialized in Austro-Hungarian interests, all the other papers catered to individual national and religious communities. At the beginning of the First World War the Orthodox-Serb and Muslim newspapers stopped publication, while Croat-Catholic newspapers for the most part continued to publish. The death of Emperor Francis Joseph I and the accession to the throne of Karl I, was the main political and social event covered at the end of 1916, and as such was followed by Croat- Catholic newspapers of the period. The death of Emperor Francis Joseph was viewed as a great loss for Croats and Catholics of the time, since the late ruler was seen as their protector and liberator, who had enabled normal life and development for them. They considered him as their Catholic and Croat king. Loyalty to the new emperor was renewed, as the legal successor and in gratitude to the Habsburg crown for what it had done in the past.
