Talk:History of Croatia

message: Hi! I'd like to merge "Medieval Croatian states (until 925)" and "Kingdom of Croatia (925–1102)" sections which are very short into new "Middle Ages" section. Furthermore, I'd like to split the "Personal union with Hungary (1102–1918)" in two, with the cutoff point at the point of the Battle of Mohacs. The period preceding the battle would then be merged with the newly created "Middle Ages" section as there is little information there for the period. The remainder would be titled "Habsburg era" and it would cover the period between the Battle of Mohacs and the end of the World War I.
I consider this as giving due weight to the Habsburg empire/Austrian Empire/Austria-Hungary which substantially defined present-day Croatian culture and society. I would reference the sections in the process, of course. Is there any reason not to proceed with the outlined changes?--Tomobe03 (talk) 11:11, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

message: When I read a page like this I realise how much Wikipedia has become ground to promote Nationalism. Moderate contributors cannot spend their nights fighting on each word. Indeed, extremists can.
The consequence is that today this page has become a propagandist tool to demonstrate that Croatia has been Croat since the end of the Roman Empire. 
I don't know if add a banner of neutrality on the article or very simplistically end contributing to this ugly mess that has become Wikipedia.

thread_title:  Nationalism 

message: I have rounded the tones. Writing that "civilians supported Ustaše because motivated by Partisans' atrocitiesé is somehow awkward. Crimes of Ustaše and their sympathisers started well before resistence started and qualifying the reaction of the Partisans of "atrocities" is somehow awful when we go trough the crimes committed by the Ustaše. They did quite a job to the Serbs/Jews/Gypsies in such small amount of time. No surprise the Partisans reacted. From there to qualifying the acts of Ustaše of "crimes" and those of the Partisans of "atrocities" there is a distance.

replies: text: "They did quite a job to the Serbs/Jews/Gypsies/anti-fascist Croats/ in such small amount of time. It is important to be neutral, regardless of opinions. This is not a place to grind axes. We are not here to morally rebalance and excuse crimes. Also please provide sources for claiming that motivation to join the Ustase was not at all related to Partisans atrocities. As far as I know, atrocities did boost enrollment.  Statement does not say it was the sole reason. Ustasa crimes were more violent and initiated the Partisan resistance, though Axis invasion in general did as well. Partisans, as well as Chetniks (Towards Ustase and Partisans) did however, also engage in brutal acts, that would push more Croats towards sympathizing with the Ustase and push more Serbs towards Chetniks. This being since Ustase were not strongly active in all parts of Croatian territory, so many were not aware of Ustase crimes, only what was happening to them. Nothing is Black & White. Thank you. 108.54.93.183 (talk) 21:25, 27 November 2016 (UTC)

message: In the "Kosor government (2009)" section, the claim is made that "the Constitutional Court ultimately declared the referendum issue moot." "Moot" means "debatable." Is "moot" the right adjective here? Do we want to say that the referendum issue was declared debatable?Lestrade (talk) 01:35, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The text is correct, see mootness. GregorB (talk) 12:34, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Doubtful

message: Only 3 lines in the whole article are for the Venetian ruling over Dalmatia? Is is serious? The thing is that if I try to expand and create a section after I will have to fight a fierce opposition from Croatian users. Sad, very sad. Silvio1973 (talk) 12:25, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Silvio, how many times have you been told to assume good faith, esp. in this topic area? Why would you insist on muddying the water before you've even started editing? Heck, I see you've made an edit here in 2011. What possible purpose does this line of discussion serve, then? --Joy [shallot] (talk) 20:47, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Joy, why do you of good faith? I do not accuse anyone. I thinl it's not serious to give such a marginal space to Venice in this article. What do you think? Silvio1973 (talk) 23:54, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  So why not simply fix it (as opposed to ranting about unnamed enemies beforehand)? --Joy [shallot] (talk) 11:02, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thank you Joy, you are right. This is the right attitude. I will and with pleasure. And of course with adequate sourcing. I just hope this won't generate too much of disagreement. Silvio1973 (talk) 12:27, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  As long as you bring sources to the table, the "fierce opposition" will have no ground to stand on. Observing your comments among the different Croatian pages, I hope you have noting but best (neutral) intentions. 108.54.93.183 (talk) 21:46, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Venetian ruling

message: Can you discuss as to why you think these section titles are an improvement? I believe that "World War II" is a better title, as the country was not under complete control of Pavelić's government during a large part of that time. Also, "Early Medieval Croatia", "Independent Croatia", etc. are redundant per MOS:SECTIONHEADING. Daß Wölf 03:55, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  Do istrage naše ili vaše 

message: I would like to discuss this , which I find misleading. Its segments showing borders from 925 and 1230 are not in line with what modern historians say. In case of 925 borders, we have Croatian counties mentioned in De Administrando Imperiov (written approximately in same period) and these counties give us the impression of where Croatian borders were in that period of history. This kind of map is also displayed in Museum of Croatian Archaeological Monuments. No serious historian will nowadays tell you that Croatian borders from that time reached Drava river. 
Same goes for 1230 map, which doesn't even distinct medieval Croatia from medieval Slavonia. Croatia from that time was south of Petrova Gora. Slavonia at a time was its own entity with its own parliament. 
As for the 9th century map, the place back then wasn't called Croatia, it was called Dalmatia and Pannonia, after the old Roman provinces.
I believe these things should be fixed, before using the map in the article. I would also appreciate to hear the opinion of other editors. Franjo Tahy (talk) 22:44, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
