The society was formed (1911) and led by Col. </span>Dragutin Dimitrijević<span>; its members were primarily army officers with some government officials. Operating from </span>Belgrade<span>, it conducted propaganda campaigns, organized armed bands in Macedonia (before the </span>Balkan Wars<span>, 1912–13), and established a network of revolutionary cells throughout Bosnia. Within Serbia it dominated the army and wielded tremendous influence over the government by terrorizing officials; it became so powerful that its authority challenged that of the government. In order to eliminate that rival, Prince Alexander, commander in chief of the expatriate Serbian army, brought the leaders of the Black Hand to trial on dubious charges at Salonika in 1917. Dimitrijević and two others were executed, and more than 200 were imprisoned.</span>
