The Kingdom of Yugoslavia is one of the Allies of World War Two.
Yugoslavia followed Bulgaria and formally joined the Axis powers by signing the Tripartite Pact on 25 March 1941. Air force officers opposed to the move staged a coup d'état and took over in the following days. These events were viewed with great apprehension in Berlin, and as it was preparing to help its Italian ally in its war against Greece anyway, the plans were modified to include Yugoslavia as well.
During the Axis occupation of Yugoslavia, Josip Broz Tito led a communist resistance movement commonly known as the Partisans, and with the aid of the Soviet Union, gradually gained control over Yugoslavia.
In Battlegroup42 the Yugoslavs appear in four maps. The Kingdom appears in 4104-Adria Annexion against Italy, 4104-Down the Danube against Hungary, and 4104-April War against Germany. The Partisans appear in 4405-Raid on Drvar against Germany.
