The Common South Slav State
On 1 December 1918 a common state was formed in the Balkans called the Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes and was ruled by the Serbian dynasty of Karadjordjevic. The name of the country was changed in 1929 to the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. This country remained in existence until the beginning of the Second World War. Throughout its existence the Kingdom had many internal problems as the many different groups in their population fought for their interests.
