Rupnik Line
The Rupnik Line (), was a line of World War II–era fortifications and weapons installations that Yugoslavia constructed along its terrestrial western and northern border. The construction of the line, named after General Leon Rupnik, was a safety measure taken in order to counter the construction of the Italian Alpine Wall, a line built by the bordering country Italy, as well as against the imposing danger of a German invasion following the ''Anschluss'' of Austria. Yugoslavia's Rupnik Line was inspired by various other fortification systems built along borders, mainly by France, Czechoslovakia and neighboring Italy. It was established to provide good positions to enforce the existing border, as well as to repel a potential invasion. Although there were around 15,000 troops manning the fortifications at its peak, with a potential of housing a total of 40,000, the line was never used to full potential, as it was largely unprepared and abandoned by the time Yugoslavia was invad ...
