Thurn Taxis family, a German- Italian family that accumulated large amount of wealth thanks to the vast post network established in the Middle ages, was one of the largest private estate owners in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, or what was later Kingdom of Yugoslavia. After the First World War the Thurn Taxis estates, as well as most of the other private estates, were the target of the agrarian reform. Fürst Albert Lamoral Maria Thurn Taxis, head of the family at the time, didn’t want to give his estates without a fight. His estates encompassed a large amount of forests and the wood industry was one of the most lucrative ones in Yugoslavia. In his fight, Fürst Albert Thurn Taxis used a wide array of tactics, namely the corruptive element of Yugoslavija which at the time was abundant.
