Historical dictionary of Croatia

About “Historical dictionary of Croatia”

Croatia, a former republic of Yugoslavia, declared itself independent on 25 July 1991. The country's history is deeply tied to the Croats' long-standing heritage, which contributed to the rise of nationalism that influenced the breakup of Yugoslavia. Since gaining independence, Croatia has made progress in economic reform, democratization, and improving relations with European countries. The third edition of Historical Dictionary of Croatia provides an overview of the nation's history through a chronology, introduction, bibliography, and detailed entries on key people, events, and aspects of Croatian society.
