Dubrovnik has an outstanding history. An independent, merchant republic for 700 years (cancelled by Napoleon in 1806), it traded with Turkey and India in the East (with a consul in Goa, India) and had trade representatives in Africa (in the Cape Verde Islands). It actually had diplomatic relations with the English court in the middle ages (there’s a letter from Elizabeth I on display in the City Museum in Dubrovnik).

Its standing was such that robust and rich Venice was jealous of this Croatian-Slav town. Early Dubrovnik the primary history of Dubrovnik regularly focuses on a tiny settlement on the location of Dubrovnik in prehistoric times ; this settlement, in reality was on and island called Laus which was, at this point, seperated from the mainland by a bog.

There had been also a larger Greek settlement close by in what was called Epidauros (present-day Cavtat). An invasion by Slavs in the 7th century destroyed Epidauros and other communities in the area, causing inhabitants to escape to Laus. Laus at last modified to Raus which became Ragusa – which is the important name for Dubrovnik. Around this time, Dubrovnik itself was set up by Croats (the name deriving from dub that means oak and dubrava which means wood – as expected, the settlement was by an oak forest). Ragusa and Dubrovnik at last combined when the marshland between was filled in. Another speculation about Dubrovnik’s history which is piling on the pounds is that there had been actually a giant Greek settlement where Dubrovnik is situated today and the town really has Greek origins.

Growth and wealth Dubrovnik expanded seriously from the 9th century and as a part of the Byzantine Empire, so by the 12 th century it was even regarded as sort of a challenge to Venice and its Republic. It came under attack from Venice, and from 1205 to 1358 came under its rule.

The old town was completed in the thirtheenth century and remains almost unvaried to the present day. Tall ramparts surround it and there are just two entrances to the old town which lead on to the Stradun, the city’s promenade. One of the best pleasures for many visitors is to have a drink in one of the close by cafe and watch the world go by, while they themselves are being studied by the town patron, St. Blaise, or Sveti Vlaho as the people next door call him. In 1358 the Concord of Zadar saw Dubrovnik stop being under Venice’s rule and instead become Croat-Hungarian, even though it was regarded as having a good deal of liberty.

From the thirtheenth century onwards, Dubrovnik had seen it endure a number of vital developments which raised its eminence. The Ordinances of 1272 had laid groundwork for political and legal life in the town. From the 14th century trade with the neighborhood prospered and the town also blossomed with industry and culturally. Dubrovnik had one or two advanced multinationals for that time – a chemist was opened in 1317 and an orphanage in 1432. Downfall of the Republic Dubrovnik was hit by a quake on six Apr 1667, which finished about five thousand inhabitants and devastated lots of the town, though the town walls stayed standing.

The town much weakened, by 1806 when Napolean enterd Dubrovnik there had been small resistance. The Republic of Ragusa was officially melted in 1808 after Napolean’s fall, Dubrovnik became part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1815. Dubrovnik in Yugoslavia and Croatia After World War I, Dubrovnik became part of Croatia which itself was a part of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes which became Yugoslavia after World War 2. Dubrovnik was subject to substantial shelling by Serbs during the struggle in 199 half in a siege that lasted seven months. The Old City suffered considered damage, but was quickly revived to its previous beauty.
