Socialist Autonomous Region of Vojvodina

Autonomous region of Vojvodina ( Serbohor. Socijalistička Pokrajina Vojvodina / Autonomna Pokrajina Voјvodina ), which was created in 1945 as the province of Serbia (including Srem, Banat and Bachka) and had a small level of autonomy within the Slovak Republic. Instead of the former name “Danube Banovina”, the region restored its historical name Vojvodina, and Novi Sad remained its capital. In 1963, the word “Socialist” was added to the name of the province, and since 1974, according to the Constitution of the SFRY, the province received wider self-government rights and was de facto recognized as a subject of the Yugoslav Federation, having received the right to vote at the level of Serbia.

During the reign of Slobodan Milosevic, Vojvodina and Kosovo returned to their former status according to the decree of September 28, 1990 , removing the word "Socialist" from their names.
