Podjela provincije Ilirik
Partition of the Province of Illyricum

Summary/Abstract: The status of the province of Illyricum on the Western Balkans was regulated following the principate system establishing in the Roman State in January 27 BC. Until the beginning of the new era Illyricum encompassed a wide area of Western Balkan. The outbreak of the Great Illyrian uprising in spring 6 AD completely destroyed the provincial structure and due to a number of circumstances it was very difficult to re-establish the province Illyricum into her old territorial format. After the collapse of the organized uprising in September 9 AD, two new provinces came into existence; Upper Illyricum / Dalmatia and Lower Illyricum / Pannonia. This paper mainly deals with the issue of the time, way and tangible reasons that caused the dissolution of the unified Illyricum and the creation of two new provinces.
