Summary/Abstract: Bosnia and Herzegovina was the subject of political plans and agreements of its neighbors on several occasions, and for the most recent history, the most important agreement was between Dragisa Cvetkovic, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, and Vladko Macek, president of the Croatian Peasant Party. The agreements lasted from 23 to 26 of August 1939 and led to a tense relationship between the Serbs and Croats at the expense of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The agreement envisaged the division of Bosnia between the Serbian and Croatian spheres of interest, with 13 regions from Bosnia and Herzegovina being taught in the newly-formed Banovina of Croatia, which included the Savska and the Primorska Banovina. The rest of Bosnia and Herzegovina was supposed to be in the Serbian countries. In Karadjordjevo, Milosevic and Tudjman also discussed the division of Bosnia and Herzegovina by principle; where Serbs are majority belongs to Serbia, where Croats are majority belongs to Croatia, and Muslims are planned to be left with "a small Muslim state in the middle". This agreement was initiated by Tudjman because he was burdened with the aforementioned 1939 agreement and wanted to see Croatia within the boundaries that were envisaged for Banovina Croatia. The agreement in Karadjordjevo is actually rooted in the Cvetkovic-Macek Agreement.
