Croatian Monarchs
A history of Croatian monarchs.
Contents
Kingdom of Croatia
Tomislav established a kingdom in 925 by joining the duchies of Pannonia and Dalmatia. This kingdom was organized into counties called zupanije. Kings appointed a viceroy called a ban.
The kingdom's focus was in consolidating control over the Dalmatian city-states, which brought it into conflict (and bargaining) with the Bulgarians and Byzantines.
Kingdom of Hungary and Croatia
Coloman was elected king of Croatia and Dalmatia. The kingdoms of Hungary and Croatia entered into a union that would hold until Ottoman conquest.
As the monarchs typically reigned from Hungary, one or more viceroys were appointed to oversee Croatia. The title ban continued to be used for these offices. The banate of Slavonia became a position of particular influence, and eventually was raised to a duchy.
Kingdom of Dalmatia
Following a brief Napoleonic conquest, the Dalmatian coast was consolidated under the Austrian Empire.
The region was reorganized into a new Kingdom of Dalmatia and became a Habsburg crownland, with its capital in Zadar.
