— *Historical affiliations*

The [Roman Empire](/source/Roman_Empire) conquered this area in the 1st century [AD](/source/Anno_Domini). Construction of roads has started at that time. There are two main roads in the [Illyricum Province](/source/Illyricum_(Roman_province)); one road led from [Salona](/source/Salona) to [Siscia](/source/Siscia) and the other from Siscia to [Sirmium](/source/Sirmium). The latter course went near today's Slabinja, which is proven by the Roman [milestone](/source/Milestone) found near the village.[1] A total of five such milestones were in the area of the village. During the Roman Empire, the area of today's Slabinja was at the southern fringe of the [province](/source/Roman_province) [Pannonia](/source/Pannonia), and [Pannonia Superior](/source/Pannonia_Superior) and [Pannonia Savia](/source/Pannonia_Savia) subsequently.

The [first settlers](/source/Duchy_of_Croatia) in this area came in the 7th century. In the 10th century, the area became a part of the newly formed the [Kingdom of Croatia](/source/Kingdom_of_Croatia_(925%E2%80%931102)). Succession crisis to the [Croatian throne](/source/King_of_Croatia) has weakened the Kingdom which in the end led to the [unification with Kingdom of Hungary](/source/Croatia_in_personal_union_with_Hungary) under the *[Pacta conventa](/source/Pacta_conventa_(Croatia))* in 1102.[2][3] Before that, the Hungarian King's Army led by [King](/source/King_of_Hungary) [Coloman](/source/Coloman,_King_of_Hungary) defeated [Petar Snačić](/source/Petar_Sna%C4%8Di%C4%87), the last Croatian king, in the [Battle of Gvozd Mountain](/source/Battle_of_Gvozd_Mountain).[4][5] In the [Middle Ages](/source/Middle_Ages), the area of the village belonged to the [Dubica](/source/Dubica,_Croatia) cemetery, while the first known holders of the land were the [Babonić family](/source/Baboni%C4%87_family). In 1334, Slabinja first appears in a written source when its church is mentioned in a list of [parishes](/source/Parish) of the [Roman Catholic Diocese of Zagreb](/source/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Zagreb).[6]

This area was attacked by the [Ottomans](/source/Ottoman_Empire) in 1461 for the first time. In October 1483, near the [Dubica](/source/Hrvatska_Dubica), the army of [Knyaz](/source/Knyaz) [Bernardin Frankopan](/source/Bernardin_Frankopan) defeated the regional Ottoman forces in the [Battle of Una](/source/Battle_of_Una).[7] In 1513, the Ottomans attacked the border zone again and occupied Dubica. On 16 August, [Croatian Army](/source/Croatia_in_union_with_Hungary) led by [Ban](/source/Ban_of_Croatia) [Petar Berislavić](/source/Petar_Berislavi%C4%87) clashed with the Ottoman army forces between the [Sava](/source/Sava_(river)) and Una rivers and won a great victory over them in the [Battle of Dubica](/source/Battle_of_Dubica).[8] Estimates of Ottoman casualties range from over 2,000 to 7,000 killed, drowned while fleeing, and imprisoned, together with a large number of freed Christian captives. Among them, there were four army commanders killed and one captured.[9] After the battle, Berislavić was named as Count of Dubica and Prior of Vrana by [King of Hungary](/source/King_of_Hungary) [and Croatia](/source/King_of_Croatia) [Vladislaus II](/source/Vladislaus_II_of_Hungary). In 1538, during the [Third Ottoman Venetian War](/source/Ottoman%E2%80%93Venetian_War_(1537%E2%80%931540)), Slabinja had fallen under the Ottoman rule and remains under their control until 1685. At the time of Turkish rule, part of the Sanjak of Banja Luka, within [Bosnia Eyalet](/source/Bosnia_Eyalet).

### 17th century

Under the [anti-Ottoman liberation struggle](/source/Great_Turkish_War), in 1685, [Croatian Ban](/source/Ban_of_Croatia) [Nikola III Erdődy](/source/Mikl%C3%B3s_Erd%C5%91dy) issued a command to curtail the Ottoman army to the Una Valley. The [Imperial Army](/source/Army_of_the_Holy_Roman_Empire) liberated the area. The established conditions of power were confirmed by the [1699 Treaty of Karlowitz](/source/Treaty_of_Karlowitz), thus the border was formally drawn to the Una Valley.[10] The settlement of the [Serbs](/source/Serbs_of_Croatia) in the area began in 1687. Ban Erdödy asked [Bishop](/source/Bishop_of_Zagreb) Martin Borković [of Zagreb](/source/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Zagreb) to settle Serbs at the Bishop's estates near [Bović](/source/Bovi%C4%87) and [Kirin](/source/Kirin,_Croatia).

In the southern part of [Banovina](/source/Banovina_(region)), near [Blinja](/source/Blinja), the [Keglevich family](/source/Keglevi%C4%87_family) had significant land. Because of this, they stood in constant clash with the Bosnian–Ottoman army. To strengthen the defense forces, the Keglevichs settled a large number of Orthodox Serb families southern from [Petrinja](/source/Petrinja) and [Sunja](/source/Sunja,_Sisak-Moslavina_County). In 1693, [Count](/source/Count) [Ferenc Erdődy](/source/Erd%C5%91dy) of [Petrinya](/source/Petrinja) appointed [Knyaz](/source/Knyaz) Petar Draškovich as the governor of "[Vlachs](/source/Vlachs)" (a term used for a community of mostly [Orthodox refugees, mainly Serbs](/source/Great_Migrations_of_the_Serbs)[a]) in Slabinja and other surrounding inhabited places. For protection from the Ottoman army, the watchtowers were built along the Una River, several of which were located in Slabinja, one stood near the village's church.

On September 19, 1698, people of Slabinja got a land [charter](/source/Charter) (Croatian: *Slabinjska povelja*).[11] They were granted land as a reward for the service in the [Great Turkish War](/source/Great_Turkish_War) and a defense of the [Croatian Military Frontier](/source/Croatian_Military_Frontier). The Charter guaranteed them a legal, undisturbed and protected [land management](/source/Land_management) in Slabinja. Also, with this act [Count](/source/Count) [Péter Keglevich](/source/P%C3%A9ter_Keglevich), Commander-in-chief of the [Kostajnica](/source/Fortress_Kastel) confirmed their [earlier taxation and tenancy rights](/source/Statuta_Valachorum).[12][13] At the time, Knyaz Pavle Dragošević was administrating the County. He was appointed on March 1, 1693. The area was known as the Slabinja County (Croatian: *Slabinjska knežija*) at the time. The County had three [stockades](/source/Stockade) (Upper, Middle, and Lower) and about a hundred people capable of military service according to the census on December 13, 1969.[11]

### 18th and 19th century

In 1703, [Emperor](/source/Holy_Roman_Emperor) [Leopold I](/source/Leopold_I,_Holy_Roman_Emperor) placed the entire area between [Una](/source/Una_(Sava)) and [Kupa](/source/Kupa) under the military command of the [Ban of Croatia](/source/Ban_of_Croatia), creating the [Ban's Borderland](/source/Banovina_(region)) ([Croatian](/source/Croatian_language): *Banska Krajina*). In the 18th century, there were two major [Austro-Turkish wars](/source/Ottoman%E2%80%93Habsburg_wars), the [1716–1718 War](/source/Austro-Turkish_War_(1716%E2%80%931718)) and the [1735–1739 War](/source/Russo-Turkish_War_(1735%E2%80%931739)). In the first war, the Imperial Army liberated [Northern Bosnia](/source/Sanjak_of_Bosnia) and [Serbia](/source/Kingdom_of_Serbia_(1718%E2%80%9339)), but in the second they lost these areas. In 1749, the [Military Frontier](/source/Military_Frontier) was once again reorganized and modeled after the Imperial Army and its regular regiments, so the Ban's Borderland was divided into two [regiments](/source/Regiment): Glina and Kostajnica.

In 1774, the village was listed as *"Dorf Szlabina"* (*Dorf*, [Eng.](/source/English_language) a village) on the map of the [First Military Survey](/source/Josephinian_Land_Survey).[14] On the map, it could be found the village's old church, which was then dedicated to [Saint Elijah](/source/Saint_Elijah). [Today's church](/source/Church_of_Saint_Parascheva,_Slabinja) was built in 1828.[15] Briefly, Slabinja was under [French](/source/First_French_Empire) rule between [1809 and 1814](/source/Napoleonic_Wars) in the [Illyrian Provinces](/source/Illyrian_Provinces).

According to the 1857 census, the village had 609 inhabitants. After the demilitarization of the Military Frontier, Slabinja was a part of the Kostajnica District in the [Zagreb County](/source/Zagreb_County_(former)) of the [Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia](/source/Kingdom_of_Croatia-Slavonia), within the [Austro-Hungarian Empire](/source/Austro-Hungarian_Empire).

### 20th and 21st century

In 1918, after the end of [World War I](/source/World_War_I), Slabinja became part of the newly formed [State of Slovenes, Croats, and Serbs](/source/State_of_Slovenes,_Croats_and_Serbs) which joined into [Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes](/source/Kingdom_of_Serbs,_Croats_and_Slovenes). From 1929 to 1939, Slabinja was part of the [Sava Banovina](/source/Sava_Banovina) and from 1939 to 1941 of the [Banovina of Croatia](/source/Banovina_of_Croatia) within the [Kingdom of Yugoslavia](/source/Kingdom_of_Yugoslavia).

As a Serb-populated village, it experienced a particularly difficult time during [World War II](/source/World_War_II).[16]

During [SFR Yugoslavia](/source/SFR_Yugoslavia) (1945–1991) Slabinja was part of large municipality [Kostajnica](/source/Kostajnica,_Croatia), [SR Croatia](/source/SR_Croatia).[17] Slabinja got electricity in 1963 and the [road](/source/D47_road_(Croatia)) is asphalted in 1971.

During the [Croatian War](/source/Croatian_War) (1991–1995), the village was part of the [unrecognized](/source/List_of_historical_unrecognized_states_and_dependencies) [republic of Srpska Krajina](/source/Republic_of_Srpska_Krajina). Slabinja was put back in [Croatian Government](/source/Croatia) authority following military victories by the [Croatian Army](/source/Croatian_Army) in the [1995 Operation Storm](/source/Operation_Storm). Since 1995, Slabinja has been an administrative part of the [Hrvatska Dubica](/source/Hrvatska_Dubica) [Municipality](/source/Municipalities_of_Croatia), within the [Sisak-Moslavina County](/source/Sisak-Moslavina_County).

In September 2016, Slabinja got a kids playground funded by Croatia Without Mines Foundation and the Dubica municipality.[18][19][20]
