Croatia Travel Information


Croatia Flag The Republic of Croatia is a country in East-central Europe. It has land borders with Bosnia and Herzegovina, Hungary, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia, and is divided into two parts by the Bosnia's short coastline, which is closed to the town of Neum. Croatia itself has a long coastline on the Adriatic Sea, and also contains many islands in that sea.

As of 2007, Croatia had an estimated population of 4,437,460. The largest city in the country, by a considerable margin, was the capital, Zagreb, with a population of around 0.7 million.

Croatia had a difficult transition from Communism (when it was part of Yugoslavia), involving both war and economic dislocation. However, these difficulties are now being overcome, and the country is a candidate to join the European Union in the next few years. Services in general, and tourism in particular are important parts of the modern Croatian economy. Even during the Communist period, Croatia was a fairly popular tourist destination, and this is even more true nowadays, with 8.9 million foreign tourists visiting the country in 2006 alone.
