Summary/Abstract: This work is the continuation of the article published in this Journal no. 69-70 under the title "The Posavina Border Region of Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina: Development up to 1918 (with special reference to changes in ethnic composition)". This mentioned article describes the natural features of the region, its importance in the past, the disappearance of the unified Croatian ethnic territory by the sixteenth century and subsequent development, particularly with a view to the region's importance as a border zone and the changes to its ethnic structure. This work presents the more recent development of the region by providing an overview of the political circumstances and changes to its ethnic structure under the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and under the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Particular attention is dedicated to political changes which were reflected in changes to the region's ethnic structure at the end of the twentieth century, primarily due to the ethnic cleansing of Croats and Muslims and the political changeswhich occurred in Bosnia-Herzegovina after the signing of the Dayton Accords.
