The '''Ustaša – Croatian Revolutionary Movement''' (Croatian: ''Ustaša – Hrvatski revolucionarni pokret''), commonly known as '''Ustaše''', was a Croatian fascist, racist, ultranationalist and terrorist organization, active, as one organization, between 1929 and 1945.

The ideology of the movement was a blend of fascism, Roman Catholicism and Croatian nationalism. The Ustaše supported the creation of a Greater Croatia that would span the Drina River and extend to the border of Belgrade. The movement emphasized the need for a racially "pure" Croatia and promoted [[genocide]] against Serbs, Jews and Romani people, and persecution of anti-fascist or dissident Croats and Bosniaks. The Ustaše viewed the Bosniaks as "Muslim Croats," and as a result, Bosniaks were not persecuted on the basis of race.
