Banovina to Bosnia, east of Agram

 

While my "Banovina" includes Agram, or modern Zagreb in Croatia, I'm skipping over the distinction in order to simplify the area.  Banovina is a part of the Hapsburg Empire of Austria, which most modern sources fails to acknowledge was once distinct and separate from Hungary, as the two kingdoms were always acting in tandem — especially against the Ottoman Empire.  In any case, this corner of Croatia at the top of the map is isolated from the rest of Hungary by geography and a low population ... and is therefore more connected with, and dependent upon, the Hapsburgs of Sziszek and Agram.

The latter is about 3 miles off the western edge of the above, and is due to appear in the next post.  The appearance of type-1 hexes shows the central core of modern Croatia ... and such is going to continue sporadically towards Graz in Austria, which is off to the northwest.  I won't quite get to Austria; further mapping will reach into parts of Slovenia and western Hungary, before changing direction to the northeast and ultimately towards Slovakia and the Ukraine.

Banovina isn't very large ... about 1800 square miles, larger than Rhode Island but not as large as Delaware.  It's one of a grouping of similarly sized  or smaller fiefdoms: Carniola, Lower Carniola, Kordun, Lika, Lower Styria and Freising, the last about 120 miles in area and surrounding Skofje Loka in Slovenia.
