Abstract
This paper deals with the Italian occupation of the city of Šibenik between 1918 and 1921. Šibenik, along with the rest of Dalmatia was a place where Italian and Slavic culture and nationalisms collided during 19th century. With the beginning of World War I, western allies agreed to give Italy a large part of Dalmatian territory after the war in order to persuade Italy to take their side in this global conflict. However, a vast majority of general public in Šibenik was of Croatian origin and were not supportive of Italian rule in Dalmatia. This is what made the occupation which took place from November 1918 until June 1921 hard for both the civilian people of Šibenik and the Italian army that occupied the city. Local Croatian population that wanted Šibenik to become a part of the newly formed state of southern Slavs was often involved in incidents both with the Italian army and the local Italian population. The occupation ended after the agreement in Rapallo between Yugoslav and Italian side, where it was decided that Šibenik was to become a part of the Yugoslav state.
