Summary/Abstract: By the decisions of the Berlin Congress in 1878, Austra-Hungary occupied Bosnia and Herzegovina, although it was still the territory of the Ottoman Empire. The entry of the Austrian military and civilian authorities into Bosnia and Herzegovina was the first step of the German penetration to the east. From 1878, Vienna had carefully been preparing the annexation and the the right moment for it was 1908. Defeated in the war withJapan, and shaken by the revolution in 1905,Russia was unable to react. The annexation, carried out by Vienna, caused dissatisfaction in Cetinje and Belgrade.Serbia and Montenegro were ready to get into war for their rights.For the above-mentioned reasons, Russia was not ready for war, so Serbia and Montenegro had to withdraw, failing to receive even territorial compensation for the loss of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
