History Of Dalmatia
The History of Dalmatia concerns the history of the area that covers eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea and its inland regions, from the 2nd century BC up to the present day. The region was populated by Illyrian tribes around 1,000 B.C, including the Delmatae, who formed a kingdom and for whom the province is named. Later it was conquered by Rome, thus becoming the province of Dalmatia, part of the Roman Empire. Dalmatia was ravaged by barbaric tribes in the beginning of the 4th century. Slavs started settling in the area in the 6th and 7th century, including Croats. These Slavic arrivals created the Kingdom of Croatia and other Slavic principalities. Byzantium, Hungary, Venice and the Ottoman Empire all fought for control of Dalmatia. In the south the Republic of Ragusa (1358-1808) emerged. The Republic of Venice, from 1420 to 1797 controlled a significant part of Dalmatia (see Venetian Dalmatia). In 1527 the Kingdom of Croatia became a Habsburg crown land, and in 1812 the King ...
