Summary/Abstract: The Provincial Government for Dalmatia appointed the National Organization for Dalmatia in Split on 2 November 1918 on the order of the National Council of the Slovenes, Croats, and Serbs in Zagreb. Difficult postwar conditions presented it with a number of problems of which the most trying were shortages of supplies and hunger, the spread of communicable diseases, and Italian occupation of parts of the territory resulting in interrupted communication links with Zagreb and among towns in the region. Numerous problems, first and foremost the occupation of parts of its territory, drove the Territorial Government for Dalmatia to call the Serbian army to enter Dalmatia and forced the pace of the unification of the State of Slovenes, Croats, and Serbs with the Kingdom of Serbia (and the Kingdom of Montenegro). The Provincial Government for Dalmatia was dissolved on 20 January 1919 by decree of the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes as part of a wider process of administrative centralization in the new state.
