"Croatia, as a name of the country is derived from word "cratkia" which was first used in 702. Word "cratkia" meant short in old Slav language. Cratkia eventually became mistyped and word reordered. Finally, one day King Tomislav (first croatian king) decided the name would be Croaticum Totalirum which, translated from latin means, Croaticum Rule-all. " As time went by, people of western part of Croatia took name Histria, south took Damatica, north used Pannonia and south-east Herzegovina. In 1561. runes telling the story of Croatia were found as. Croaticam Populaere. Today known as Croatian Population. Republic Of Croatia is today sovereign country in the south-eastren party of Europe, which contains Adrian sea.
