Nedić's Serbia (Nedićeva Srbija) is the popular name for the Serbian nazi puppet state that existed between 1941 and 1944, on the teritory of parts of today's Serbia. The official name of the goverment was Vlada nacionalnog spasa (eng. Government of National Salvation) which was proclaimed by general Milan Nedić on 1st of September 1941. The internal affairs of the Serbian puppet state was modelled according to Nazi state models: racial laws were introduced with immediate effects on Jews, Roma people, as well as imprisonment of all progressive and left oriented persons. The start of the massive prosecution was marked with the Anti-Freemason Exhibition, an Anti-Semitic exhibition which blamed all the ills of the nation on Jews and the imperialists. The two major concentration camps in Serbia were: Sajmište and Banjica. The government of Milan Nedić were supported by the chetniks of Dimitrije Ljotić, and the aim was to neutralise all resistance against the German occupation forces, after the massacre in Kragujevac by Wehrmacht forces in a retribution killing of civilians (100 for each dead German soldier, and 50 for each wounded one). Nedić's forces managed to rid Serbia of partisans in 1941, as well as other chetniks forces which were not willing to sign an agreement of cooperation. Under Nedić, Belgrade was declared to be Judenfrei in 1942.
