Summary/Abstract: The Annexation Crisis (1908−1909) and Balkan Wars (1912−1913) significantly impacted the redefinition of the political map of Europe, the relationship between the great powers, and the development of the youth revolutionary movement in the South Slav parts of the Austro-Hungary. The victory of the Serbian army and liberation of Old Serbia resonated strongly among pro-Yugoslav-oriented politicians, intellectuals, and especially progressive revolutionary youth. Some of them left Bosnia and Herzegovina and fought as volunteers in the Serbian and Montenegrin army units. The youth felt that the time was approaching to end foreign rule, liberate the Yugoslav peoples and unite them into one free state. Certain provisions of the Constitution were suspended by the extraordinary measures of May 1913, resulting in limited civil liberties and the closure of Serbian associations.
