  • August 1788: In July 1788, the Ottomans, led by Grand Vizier Cenaze Hasan Pasha, crossed the Danube and invaded the Austrian Banat, leading to a military occupation of the border regions. This event was part of the Austro-Turkish War of 1788-1791.
  • September 1788: In 1788, the balance of power shifted towards Austria as the Turks were expelled from parts of Croatia, the Banat, and Bosnia.
  • October 1789: Belgrade was taken in a three-week campaign by the Austrian Field Marshal Laudon.
  • November 1789: Habsburg-occupied Serbia (1788-92) was established.

  • 1. Treaty of Sistova


    Was the treaty that ended the Austro-Turkish War (1788-1791). The Habsburgs gained some borderlands in Croatia.

  • August 1791: By 1791 the Austrians (the Habsburg) were forced into withdrawal across the Danube and Sava rivers, joined by thousands of Serbian families who feared Ottoman persecution.
  • August 1791: Austrian withdrawal from a large territory in the Balkans with the Treaty of Sistova (1792). The territory was regained by the Ottomans.
  • August 1791: In the final negotiated outcome of the Austro-Turkish War (1788-1791), established in the Treaty of Sistova of 4 August 1791, Austria's gains were "meagre": Austria returned all the territory from its conquests save the small town of Orsova and a strip of Croatian land near the Bosnian-Croatian border (e.g. Drežnik Grad, Cetin Castle, Donji Lapac, Srb).
