Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia - Name

Name

The kingdom used the formal title of the Triune Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia, and Dalmatia, thereby pressing its claim on the Kingdom of Dalmatia, but Dalmatia was a Kronland within the imperial Austrian part of Austria-Hungary, also known as Cisleithania. The claim was, for most of the time, supported by the Hungarian government which backed Croatia-Slavonia in an effort to increase its share of the dual state. The union between the two primarily Croatian lands of Austria-Hungary never took place however. According to the Article 53 of the Croatian–Hungarian Agreement, that governed Croatia's political status in the Hungarian-ruled part of Austria-Hungary, ban's official title was "Ban of Kingdom of Dalmatia, Croatia and Slavonia". The laws passed in Croatia-Slavonia used the phrase "Kingdom of Dalmatia, Croatia and Slavonia".
