victory, they became the governors of the island, built a series of forts and introduced a cadastre.<\/p><p>The 20th century on Vis was also turbulent. <strong>After World War I, Vis was under Italian rule<\/strong> and then under the rule of the <strong>Kingdom of Yugoslavia<\/strong>. In 1941, the Italians again occupied Vis, but after capitulation they abandoned it. <strong>In October 1943 the entire island came under the rule of the Yugoslav partisans<\/strong>. It also housed an <strong>Allied airport<\/strong> that served as a base for attacks on areas under German occupation.<\/p><p>In socialist Yugoslavia, <strong>Vis remained a military base<\/strong> and had been closed to tourists for decades. This slowed down the development of the island but also preserved it.
