Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses the establishment and crucial aspects of the Bulgarian occupation system in the Kingdom of Serbia from 1915 to 1918. It is based on primary historical sources of German and Austrian origin and existing literature. The key characteristics of the occupying authorities, represented by the two military-inspection areas: Morava and Macedonia, are analyzed through the prism of the violations of the Hague Convention of 1908 (Convention with respect to the Laws and Customs of War on Land).
