 But Italy got only a small part of its pretensions, so Dalmatia mostly stayed Yugoslav until Benito Mussolini invaded Yugoslavia in 1941 and occupied the region.In 1922, the territory of the former Kingdom of Dalmatia was divided into two provinces, the District of Split ("Splitska oblast"), with its capital in Split, and the District of Dubrovnik ("Dubrovačka oblast"), with its capital in Dubrovnik.In 1929, the Littoral Banovina ("Primorska Banovina"), a province of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, was formed.
