Two months after the creation of"Independent State of Croati", which included Bosnia and Herzegovina, on 10th of June 1941 new legislation was created which formed new regions (velike župe). The state had 22 of these regions at first: Zagorje, Prigorje,Bilogora, Baranja, Vuka, Posavlje, Livac i Zapolje, Gora, Pokuplje, Modruša, Vinodol, Gacka i Lika, Pribir i Sidraga, Cetina, Hum, Dubrava, Usora i Soli, Lašva i Glaž, Pliva i Rama, Krbava i Psat, Sana i Luka, and Vrhbosna. As a head of each"velika žup" there was a governor (veliki župan) that had ministerial authority and led complete civil service in his region.
After the capitulation of Italy (9th of September 1943) the"Independent State of Croati" was expanded and so were its regions. In this expansion, region of Vrhbosna gained 7 counties, 4 county offices and 54 municipalities. Newly gained counties were: Čajniče, Foča, Rogatica, Sarajevo, Srebrenica, Višegrad and Vlasenica, along with county offices in Prača, Goražde, Kalinovik and Trnovo.
