Order of Battle 1st November 1881
The publication of regulations introducing conscription in the recently occupied territories of Bosnia, Hercegovina and Krisvosije in November 1881 led to a rising initially in the Krisvosije which also spread to the Hercegovina and Southern Bosnia. By the following May, the revolt was to all intents and purposes quashed with some small scale activity reported until the August of 1882. The following order of battle lists the Austro-Hungarian forces available under the command of the Commanding General in Zara, Feldmarschall-Lieutenant Stefan Freiherr von Jovanović on the 1st of November 1881.
