MILITARY-POLITICAL RELATIONS BETWEEN MEDIEVAL BOSNIA AND CETINSKA KRAJINA AT THE REIGN OF KING STJEPAN TOMAŠ

Abstract

Since this paper aims at military-political relations od Medieval Bosnia and Cetinska Krajina, there is no special need to analyse all existing attempts whose important elements influenced various connections and relations. One, almost complete list of papers on Medieval Bosnia, shows us a modest number of bibliographical units on relations between Medieval Bosnia and Cetinska Krajina, which is somewhat surprising if we bear in mind a fact that in one period this area was, in fact, a part of Medieval Bosnia. As always, the reasons to this are dual, primarily due to insufficient primary historical sources, especially those that can particularly identify the influence to changes in some historical processes, whereas the other reason is already traditional lack of interest of researchers for this type of research. The basic purpose of this paper is not initiating wider explanation of relations of these two units, but identifying characteristic military-political moments that could be beneficial for some further research.
