Vojvoda (Serbia And Yugoslavia)
Vojvoda ( sr-Cyrl, Војвода ) from old Serbian was the highest rank in the army of the Kingdom of Serbia and Kingdom of Yugoslavia from 1901 until end of Second World War in 1945. It has roots from the medieval term Voivode used during medieval Kingdom, Empire and Principality of Serbia. Vojvoda in medieval and later principality of Serbia had similar meaning as Duke title in other feudal states as it was military and noble title. In modern military terms the rank of Vojvoda is comparable with Field marshal and Generalfeldmarschall but since it can be an honorable title it is not always a military rank of a commissioned military officer. It was first created with the passing of the law on the ''Organization of the Army'' of the Kingdom of Serbia in 1901 and later confirmed in Kingdom of Yugoslavia laws on the ''Organization of the Army and Navy'' from 1923 and 1929http://digitalizovanaizdanja.sluzbenenovine.rs/DigitalizovanaIzdanja/viewdoc;jsessionid=0CC411C8A4447E422279AB ...
