During Yugoslavia has occurred great depopulation of Croats, killing many Germans. 1910 year census the population of the city of Vukovar: in the town of Vukovar lived 40 per cent Croats, 30 percent of Germans, 15 percent of Serbs and other minorities, and the Germans were ethnically cleansed, after that Vukovar was inhabited by mountain Serbs after 1945.
