Vojvodina

Vojvodina spans across 21,614 square kilometers of the Pannonian Basin, comprising the regions of Banat, Bačka, and Srem with Novi Sad as its administrative center.

The territory experienced multiple transitions through Roman, Ottoman, and Habsburg rule, with Sirmium serving as one of the Roman Empire's capitals in modern-day Sremska Mitrovica.

The province maintains six official languages - Serbian, Hungarian, Slovak, Romanian, Croatian, and Pannonian Rusyn, reflecting its multi-ethnic population of 1.7 million inhabitants.

The region contains fertile chernozem soils that produce substantial quantities of wheat, corn, sugar beets, and oilseeds, making it the primary agricultural zone of Serbia.

The province exercises autonomy through its own assembly and government, managing local infrastructure, education, science, and cultural initiatives within the Serbian state framework.
