Povijest #16: Prvi svjetski rat i poslijeratna Europa (1914.-1936.)

The sixteenth volume covers the period from 1914 to 1936, marked by the First World War and its aftermath. The book is richly illustrated, providing a comprehensive account of the war, its aftermath, and the causes leading up to the Second World War.

The war (1914–1918), sparked by the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, involved global powers in trench warfare, with enormous casualties. The alliances (the Entente and the Central Powers) fought until the Entente won, and the Treaty of Versailles (1919) imposed harsh terms on Germany, fueling future tensions.

Postwar Europe faced political and economic instability. New states emerged (Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia), while empires collapsed (Austro-Hungary, Ottoman). The Russian Revolution (1917) led to the establishment of Bolshevik rule and the USSR. The economic crisis of 1929 worsened conditions, fueling unemployment and political extremism. Fascism in Italy (Mussolini) and Nazism in Germany (Hitler) grew stronger, while the Spanish Civil War (1936) heralded new conflicts.

Culturally, the period brought modernism in art (Picasso, Kafka) and scientific progress (Einstein). In the Croatian context, the creation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, Croats and Slovenes (1918), later Yugoslavia, and the tension between centralization and Croatian aspirations for autonomy are highlighted.
