Klappentext
Croatia sits at the crossroads of Central Europe and the Adriatic, and its history reflects that position: shaped by Venetian, Ottoman, Habsburg, and Yugoslav influences in turn. Despite its small size, Croatia has a complex and layered past that stretches from ancient Illyrian settlements to the medieval Croatian kingdom, centuries of foreign rule, and the turbulent dissolution of Yugoslavia in the 1990s.
This book covers Croatian history chronologically, giving clear attention to the key periods that shaped the country's identity: the independent medieval kingdom, the long centuries under the Habsburgs, the First and Second World Wars, the communist period under Yugoslavia, and the independence war of 1991 to 1995. It is written for readers who want a reliable introduction to a country that is often overlooked in mainstream European history coverage.
Contents:
