Early parliamentary elections were held in the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia on 27 and 28 February 1908, after being called by Ban Pavao Rauch. [1]

Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia administrative division that existed between 1868 and 1918 within the Austro-Hungary

The Triune Kingdom, or Croatia-Slavonia, or Kingdom of Croatia, officially the Triune Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia was an autonomous kingdom and constitutionally defined separate political nation within the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which gained its Constitution in 1868 which defined it territory, rights and governmental system. It was composed out of Croatia and Slavonia, while Dalmatia was only de jure part, being administrated by Cisleithania. The city of Rijeka, following a fraud in the Croatian–Hungarian Settlement, known as Rijeka Addendum became a Corpus separatum, administrated by both Croatia and Hungary. The Triune Kingdom of Croatia, together with Hungary formed an equal and constitutional part of the Lands of the Crown of St. Stephen or Transleithania.
