website_title = HDSSB WebSiteCroatian Democratic Assembly of Slavonia and Baranja ( _hr. Hrvatski demokratski sabor Slavonije i Baranje, HDSSB) is a regionalist-
right wing political party inCroatia n region ofSlavonia .It was formally founded on
May 6 ,2006 , but had its origins one year earlier, when the group of localCroatian Democratic Union politicians, led by controversialBranimir Glavaš , launched a political organisation with the same name at the eve of May 2005 local elections. The stated aim of new group was the regional reorganisation of Croatia in order to improve conditions in Slavonia, which was - according to Glavaš and his supporters - neglected by central government inZagreb .The HDZ leadership under
Ivo Sanader denounced that platform and ejected Glavaš out of the party. However, most of the local HDZ organisation followed Glavaš and his independent election ticket that won a relative majority in theOsijek-Baranja County and City ofOsijek assemblies. That group of independents became the HDSSB on May 6, 2006.External links
