In the 19th century the island became heavily influenced by Pan-Slavism and the Croatian Nationalistic movement. Pan-Slavism was later in the 20th century reinforced by the Yugoslavian governments. This had a strong influence on the historical development of the island of Korčula.

In 1918 Korčula was part of the Kingdom of Dalmatia. Dalmatia was a province in the [[Austria|Austro]]-Hungarian Empire and was already more than a century old. As stated before, Dalmatia itself as a region, dates back to the Roman Empire which was well before the Slavic invasions of the early middle ages. According to the Austrian censuses the coastal region was predominately made up of [[Croatia|Croatians]] and [[Italy|Italians]] (and other minorities).<ref>Other '''minorities''' being: Serbs, Montenegrins, Albanians & Jews</ref> With the disintegration of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1918, Serbia started occupying the region (Italy did the same). It was interpreted back then as the formation of the Kingdom of Serbia, Croatia & Slovenia.

The new kingdom had the support of Great Britain and [[France]], who were the superpowers of the day. In retrospect this was a tragic move, one that the [[United States]] was against. The effects of this political stupidity are still felt today. It is interesting how this newly created state “Kingdom of Serbia, Croatia & Slovenia”, which later became better know as the '''ill fated''' Yugoslavia, was given a lot of support over the succeeding decades. This part of European history surely needs more academic attention.
