Potisje
Potisje (Serbian Cyrillic: Потисје) is the name of the Tisa river basin parts located in Serbia, in the autonomous province of Vojvodina.[1] Between 1702 and 1751, the western part of Potisje (in the region of Bačka) belonged to the Tisa-Mureș (Potisje-Pomorišje) section of the Habsburg Military Frontier.After the abolishment of this part of the Frontier in 1751, many Serbs that lived in the region emigrated to Russia (notably to New Serbia and Slavo-Serbia).To prevent this emigration, the Habsburg authorities formed the autonomous District of Potisje with its seat in Bečej.In the following period many Hungarians settled in Potisje and they replaced Serbs as the dominant ethnic group in parts of the region.
