Sažetak
The Paris Peace Conference was a turning point in European history, but also a milestone in the way maps were used in the reshaping of territory and in the forming of new states. Political, administrative, historical, linguistic, and ethnographic maps served as one of the basic sources of information in that process. One of the most complex negotiation processes was certainly the creation of the state of the South Slavs – the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (later renamed Yugoslavia), which until then had never existed. In this paper we will present the maps used by American delegation in regard of shaping Yugoslavia’s borders.
