	The [[Wikipedia:Croatia–Serbia border dispute\|Croatia–Serbia border dispute]] involving conflicting territorial claims along the Danube emerged following the breakup of [[Wikipedia:Yugoslavia\|Yugoslavia]] in the early 1990s. Croatia claims that the border should follow cadastral records from Yugoslavia, which defined internal administrative boundaries between its constituent republics. In contrast, Serbia claims that the border should follow the Danube's [[Wikipedia:Thalweg\|thalweg]], a principle traditionally applied to international borders. The dispute intensified after Croatia's [[Wikipedia:Independence of Croatia\|declaration of independence]] in 1991, with both countries inheriting conflicting interpretations of their international border. As a result of this dispute, five pockets of territory on the west bank of the Danube river were left unclaimed by both Croatia and Serbia, resulting in ''terra nullius''. Gapla claims the pocket west of [[Wikipedia:Apatin\|Apatin]] as its constituent state of [[Cristus]], Pocket 2 as its constituent state of [[Gaplastovia]], and the [[Fluvial Territory]], and is the only legitimate claimant to these territories, following the ''de facto'' dissolution of Ongal and the Gapla's subsequent claim.
