Recently I had occasion to meet a Croatian woman who has been in this country since war broke out in her beloved Croatia and she and her family were forced to flee literally with the clothes on their backs and what they could grab from the clothes line.

Thanks to Google it takes but a moment to learn about Croatia and its recent history.

The origin of the Croatian tribe before the great migration of the Slavs is uncertain.

The modern Croats are undoubtedly a Slavic people, but the archaeological and other historic evidence on the migration of the Slavic settlers, the character of native population on present-day territory of Croatia, and their mutual relationship show diverse historical influences.

Following is a brief history of Croatia and how it was effected by Italy and France during and after World War 2.
