Балкански ратови

Abstract

The paper deals with the political situation in Serbia on the eve of the wars and gives an overview of military activities during the first Balkan war (Kosovo, Battle of Kumanovo, Battle of Monastir), the capture of Durres, Tirana, Shkodra (Albanian campaign) and the second Balkan war (Battle of Bregalnica). The author examines the international political situation after the Balkan Wars and the question of how much they influenced the beginning of the First World War. The successes of the Serbian army in the First Balkan War, especially the crossing of Albania and the exit to the Adriatic Sea, left a great impression abroad.
