[edit] Serbian Voivodship

Shouldn't the name of the article be Serbian Voivodship (Srpska vojvodina)? Also, census?:) From where?:) Ceha


No, because Serbian Voivodship is another province that existed before this one. The official name of this province was "Voivodship of Serbia", thus the sources which mention it as "Serbian Voivodship" obviously do not understand the difference between the two. As for census results, I have them in two books:

  • 1. Sima M. Ćirković, Srbi među evropskim narodima, Beograd, 2004.
  • 2. Dr Dušan J. Popović, Srbi u Vojvodini, knjiga 3, Novi Sad, 1990.

[edit] Flag and Coat of arms

We now really have problem with this. First somebody added this flag to the article (and I really suspect that this is in fact flag of the Serbian Voivodship, and not of the Voivodship of Serbia and Tamiš Banat), and then somebody described this flag in the text. Can somebody say what is a source that claim that this was flag of this Voivodship, and not of the previous one (the Serbian Voivodship)? People very easy confound these two and I think that it is the case here too. PANONIAN (talk) 11:21, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, I am afraid it was me. I removed the whole article and pushed it to the Serbian Voivodship. You were right, Pannonian. I named the source, it was a Leksiklopedia article from TV Novosti from 1991. I do not know the exact number of issue, because I cut it from the magazine. One of the flags of this design is kept, I believe in Sombor museum or so, and has the Cyrillic inscription "For the Emperor and Motherland - the Sombor Volunteers". This was also the model for the war flags in 1848 Revolution. Sorry for the mess, now itćs on the right place. Me and Željko Heimer also made a copy of the flag and we are trying to put it on the FOTW site. He is the leading vexillologist in the Southeastern Europe. Zhix 23:41, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
Ok, but you also should to write image source on the image page itself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:SrpskaVojvodina400px.jpg You also should to writte what is copyright status of the image (Is it permited that image could be used on Wikipedia or not). If you do not specify these things, the image will be probably deleted. PANONIAN (talk) 00:09, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question

Were Serbs a minority in this entity?

Is its border connected to the border of Serbian Vojvodina? For it seems as if either this one does not include Baranja, or the map of Serbian Vojvodina on its article is far too skechy. --PaxEquilibrium 21:51, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, HRE, if you read both articles, this one and Serbian Vojvodina, you will find there all answers. Those were two different political entities with different borders. Serbian Vojvodina included Baranja and Military Frontier, while Voivodship of Serbia and Tamiš Banat did not. Also, Serbian Vojvodina did not included east and central Banat inhabited mainly by Romanians and Germans and Voivodship of Serbia and Tamiš Banat included it. You have here also demographics section, so you can see that it is questionable whether Serbs were majority in Voivodship of Serbia and Tamiš Banat or not. If you count Orthodox Serbs only (without Bunjevci and Šokci, who were considered a Catholic Serbs in many sources), then number of Serbs was smaller than the number of Romanians in Germans, but if you count Serbs together with Bunjevci and Šokci, then they were relative majority in the province.
