Summary/Abstract: Drawing on archival materials, press accounts, and relevant literature, this paper investigates the establishment of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia’s first regular subsidized transoceanic steamship line to South America. In 1930, the Yugoslav state contracted the domestic company Yugoslav Lloyd to maintain this line for ten years. Delays in decision-making, disagreements within the government, competing offers, primarily by the British Cunard Line, public opinion, and other influencing factors reveal key aspects of the Kingdom’s transport, trade, financial, foreign policy and emigration strategies.
