Summary/Abstract: Drava, as a borderline, has always been among the older frontiers in Croatia and Slavonnia. However, it was often achieved in battle, either through military combat, or diplomacy or through culture. The borderline on the Drava River belongs to the oldest Croatian borders and Slavonia. A special attention is given to the central Podravina in the period 1848 to 1919, noting that many have fought to keep Drava as a borderline; the Illyrians Party of Rights members, the local people and politicians of the Croatian south, proving that relations between the people on both banks of Drava River have been unbreakable, regardless of politics.
