Summary/Abstract: The author proves that the 1991-93 Serbian aggression against Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina is not unintentional, but the result of planned preparations and an expansionist policy which Serbia has been leading for almost two centuries with the fundamental wish to unite all Serbs and thus create a Greater Serbia. This is substantiated by numerous documents, plans and maps made by Serbian politicians, but also intellectuals, and even the Church. Amongst them the most important role is attributed to D.Obradović, V.Karadžić, I.Garašanin, N.Pašić, S.Milošević and others, while among the manifestos of Serbian expansion the central position is held by I.Garašanin's Načertanije from 1844 and the Memorandum of the Serbian Academy of Science from 1986.
