Summary/Abstract: The author has reconstructed the emergence, activities and disappearance of the National Council of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs in Zagreb from March 1918 to January 1919.The basic characteristic of the National Council and its self-proclaimed State was its intentional temporariness. The aim of the National Council was not the destruction of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and the creation of an independent State outside of its borders, but the hasty unification of the State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs with the Kingdoms of Serbia and Montenegro and the creation of wider South Slavic state community in the southeast of Europe.
