At the end of the World War II, the newly communist government of Yugoslavia considered croatian clubs like HŠK Građanski as fascist and nationalist, because they had operated under the former Independent State of Croatia, which was an axis member during the war. As such, they were formally disbanded and, in 1945, FD Dinamo was founded as a club to act as an unofficial successor to HŠK Građanski, getting around the ruling party ‘s disapproval. They entered the Yugoslav First League in its inaugural 1946–47 temper, finishing as runner-up. In their second season in Yugoslav top flight in 1947–48 they finished as Yugoslav champions, which was their first base major trophy.

Until the early 1990s, its foundation class was considered to be 1945 but amid the political agitation during the dissolution of Yugoslavia the club began claiming direct linage to pre-WWII clubs Građanski Zagreb and HAŠK. In order to reflect this, in June 1991, it was renamed HAŠK Građanski, which lasted until February 1993 when it was renamed Croatia Zagreb. They won five league titles and participated in the 1998–99 and 1999–2000 UEFA Champions League group stages carrying that identify, before reverting to the more wide recognized “ Dinamo Zagreb ” on 14 February 2000. Although the subject of the club ‘s name was dropped for a while, in 2011, baseball club management increasingly began claiming again that Dinamo is the direct descendant of Građanski ( which had in the first place been founded in 1911 and disbanded in 1945 ) and in April that year decided to prepend the adjective “ Građanski “ to the cabaret ‘s official name, turning it into the contemporary GNK Dinamo ( Građanski nogometni klub Dinamo or Dinamo Citizens ‘ Football Club ).

history [edit ]
basis of Građanski ( 1911–45 ) [edit ]
In 1911, when Croatia was hush separate of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Građanski was founded in Zagreb by Andrija Mutafelija and a few of his friends in reception to rumors that a football club that was meant to play in the hungarian football league ( as opposed to the croatian Sports Union ) was about to be established. Građanski was consequently founded as a multi-sports baseball club with a distinctly croatian identity intended to cater to citizens of Zagreb, with sections dedicated to football, handball and bicycle. At foremost they used grounds in Zagreb ‘s neighbourhoods of Tuškanac, Martinovka, Kanal and Maksimir, until they built their own stadium at Koturaška street, which was officially opened in 1924 by Stjepan Radić, a big croatian politician. internationally, the club went on several successful tours – on one of these, in 1923 in Spain, Građanski beat Barcelona [ 8 ] and Athletic Bilbao. The club much toured to Austria and Hungary and played friendly matches with circus tent local sides. In 1936, they went on enlistment to England where they adopted the WM formation which helped them win the 1936–1937 Yugoslav backing. Márton Bukovi, who started using the constitution as Građanski coach in 1936, introduced it to Hungary in the belated 1940s and late modified it into the now celebrated WW system which brought the Hungary national team to the final game of the 1954 World Cup. The cabaret competed in the Mitropa Cup, the first european international cabaret competition, on three occasions – in 1928, 1937 and 1940.
