Bačka Oblast (Serbo-Croatian : Bačka oblast or Бачка област) was one of the oblasts of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes from 1922 to 1929. Its administrative center was Novi Sad.
The Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes was formed in 1918 and was initially divided into counties and districts (this division was inherited from previous state administrations). In 1922, new administrative units known as oblasts (Serbo-Croatian: oblasti / области) were introduced and the whole country was divided into 33 oblasts. Before 1922, the territory of the Bačka Oblast was part of the Novi Sad County.
In 1929, 33 oblasts were administratively replaced with 9 banovinas and one district, and the territory of the Bačka Oblast was administratively included into the Danube Banovina.
The Bačka Oblast included western parts of Bačka and the region of Baranja. It shared borders with the Belgrade Oblast in the east, the Syrmia Oblast in the south, the Osijek Oblast in the west, and Hungary in the northwest.
According to the 1921 census, the oblast had a linguistically heterogeneous population: speakers of Serbo-Croatian were dominant in the cities of Novi Sad, Sombor and Subotica; speakers of German were dominant in the districts of Apatin, Darda, Kula, Odžaci, Sombor and Stara Palanka; speakers of Hungarian were dominant in the districts of Topola and Batina; while speakers of Slovak were dominant in the district of Novi Sad.

The border between Croatia and Serbia in the area of the Danube is disputed, an important part of their broader diplomatic relations. While Serbia claims that the thalweg of the Danube valley and the centreline of the river represents the international border between the two countries, Croatia disagrees, claiming that the international border lies along the boundaries of the cadastral municipalities located along the river—departing from the course at several points along a 140-kilometre (87 mi) section. The cadastre-based boundary reflects the course of the Danube which existed in the 19th century, before anti-meandering and hydrotechnical engineering works altered its course. The area size of the territory in dispute is reported variously, up to 140 km2.
