Prometna Povezanost
Tourism Introduction Zadar County encompasses marine area from Island Pag to National Park Kornati and land area of Velebit, i.e. the central part of the Croatian coastline. This is the area of true natural beauty, inhabited from the Antique period, rich with cultural heritage, maritime tradition and hospitality. Zadar County is the heart of the Adriatic and the fulfilment of many sailors' dreams with its numerous islands as well as interesting and clean underwater. It can easily be accessed from the sea, by inland transport and airways. Inseparable unity of the past and the present can be seen everywhere. Natural beauties, cultural and historical monuments have been in harmony for centuries, because men lived in harmony with nature. As a World rarity, here, in a relatively small area, within a hundred or so kilometres, one can find beautiful turquoise sea, mountains covered with snow, fertile land, rough karst, ancient cities and secluded Island bays. This is the land of the sun, warm sea, olives, wine, fish, song, picturesque villages with stone- made houses, to summarise - the true Mediterranean. History of Tourism in Zadar Tourism in Zadar has a long tradition. The historical yearbooks record that in June 1879 a group of excursionists from Vienna visited Zadar, in 1892 the City Beautification Society was founded (active until 1918), and in 1899 the Mountaineering and Tourism Society "Liburnia" was founded. At the beginning of the XX century, in March 1902 hotel Bristol was opened to the public (today's hotel Zagreb). Most important period for the development of tourism in Zadar County lasted from the 60's - 80's of the 20th century, when the majority of the hotel complexes were erected. -

E15 HR NIN THE WINTER USE OF SUMMER STRATEGY The morphology of the terrain on which the town-island formed in the shallow lagoon contributes to the unusual imagery and distinguishes Nin as a town with one of the three salt ponds on the eastern Adriatic coast that have been in operation since ancient times. The rich historical heritage, the proximity of large tourist resorts and the city of Zadar, resulted in the fact that the population of Nin (2,750 inhabitants in winter) explodes fivefold in the summer months (14,000 in the summer), which is a record number in Croatia. Providing only seasonal accommodation facilities, as a support to 'tourist' environment (natural and cultural sights, beaches ...) creates a monofunctional housing ghetto within the city area. In the winter when the surrounding activators disappear and tourists leave, these parts of the city turn into dormitories. Small towns (villages) do not have urban power or social potential to resist the six months of hibernation. Summer modes of community motivated by profit completely disappear in winter. But small towns can be an appropriate place to explore and plan different sustainability models that we can call the winter use of summer strategy. NIN / LOCATION / HISTORICAL AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT The City of Nin is situated in the lowest and flattest part of agricurtural area between the mountains of Velebit, the Krka River and the sea (the most fertile part of Dalmatia, located in the hinterland of Zadar). The geography of the surrounding area of Nin is characterized by alteration of limestone karst and alluvial deposit, resulting in fertile agricultural land. -
Implementation of International Cultural Tourism Route
Implementation of International Cultural Tourism Route “HADRIATICA” Since prehistoric times there have been strong links between civilizations and cultures of the western and eastern coast of the Adriatic. However, the first time both sides of Adriatic were united in one state was at the time of Roman Empire – the central part of Italy and east coast of the Adriatic which was largely formed by the Roman province of Dalmatia, extended by the coastline from Raša River in Istria to the Lješ, ancient Lissus in today's Albania. The Roman presence is solid in each partner area under the form of monuments, theaters, villas/houses, mosaics, ports, bridges, military places, archaeological parks, museums, information points, etc. The main theme of the International Cultural Route "Hadriatica Romana" is to present the monuments and political, economic and cultural processes that took place between both sides of the Adriatic coast during Roman domination. The key locations of the route are: CROATIA Zadar county The specific locations within Zadar County as an integral part of the route are Zadar, Nin, Nadin, and Aserija (near Benkovac – village Podgrađe). Primorje-Gorski Kotar County The specific locations within Primorje-Gorski Kotar County as an integral part of the route are located in the city of Rijeka (site Principa at Tarsatica), on the island of Krk (Omišalj, site Fulfinum Mirine) and on the island of Lošinj (Mali Lošinj, site Museum of Apoxyomenos). 2 Šibenik-Knin County The specific locations within Šibenik-Knin County that will be integral part of the route are: Burnum, a Roman settlement, museum and amphitheatre; Scardona, a Roman settlement and important military port; Roman Varvaria, Bribirska glavica archeologic site/fort; Rider archeological site, settlement of indigenous Delmatae people; Magnum, Roman settlement on the road Aquileia – Dyrrachium; Great Mrdakovica, a roman archeologic site with functional cistern; Colentum, a settlement of indigenous community of people of Liburnia in the Roman period. -

Body height was measured in 1803 males and 782 females aged 17-20 years at 66 schools in 23 towns. When corrected for population size, average male height in the eight counties is 182.6 cm (182.8 cm in seven counties of Adriatic Croatia and 183.7 cm in four counties of Dalmatia proper). -

The Effect of Film Industry on Tourism ∗
WINTER IS COMING! OR NOT? THE EFFECT OF FILM INDUSTRY ON TOURISM ∗ Marina Tkalecy Ivan Zili´cˇ z Vedran Recherx Abstract Nowadays it seems there is competition in attracting film producers to screen their produc- tions in specific locations, but at the same time, there is also a lack of data-driven academic research that measures the effects of film industry on local tourism. This study evaluates the effects of film industry on tourism outcomes in one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe and in the World|Dubrovnik, Croatia. Using the synthetic control methodology developed by Abadie & Gardeazabal (2003), we estimate the effect of a highly broadcasted TV series, Game of Thrones, on tourist arrivals. We find a robust and positive effect of filming the Game of Thrones TV series in Dubrovnik on the number of tourist arrivals. Additionally, we show that there are possibly large positive spillover effects on other Croatian counties and the whole country. Using placebo tests, we show that the estimated effects are relatively large when compared to other Croatian counties implying our results are not driven simply by chance. Keywords: Dubrovnik, film tourism, Game of Thrones (GoT), synthetic control.

Croatia Replies to Questionnaire on 3Rd PR
Strasbourg, 21 May 2007 MIN-LANG/PR (2006) 4 Addendum 2 EUROPEAN CHARTER FOR REGIONAL OR MINORITY LANGUAGES Third Periodical Report presented to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe in accordance with Article 15 of the Charter CROATIA Replies to Comments/questions submitted to the Government of Croatia regarding its Third Periodical Report Preliminary Section 1. Before the Republic of Croatia became independent, the Constitution of the former state guaranteed the status of a constitutive nation to Croats, Serbs, Slovenes, Montenegrins, Macedonians and Bosniaks (which were at that time called "Muslims"). The status of a national minority in the former state was enjoyed by: Italians, Hungarians, Czechs, Slovaks, Ruthenians, the Roma, Ukrainians, Albanians, Vlachs and Jews. After independence, the Republic of Croatia granted the status of a national minority to the existing national minorities and to all the constitutive nations from the territory of the former state. With the adoption of the Constitutional Act on the Rights of National Minorities, which recognised the status of a national minority to each ethnic group guided by the wish for the preservation of its special characteristics, the number of national minorities in Croatia increased, so there are 22 national minorities in Croatia today. On the basis of the Constitution of the former state and the Public Administration Act, which was then in force, in 1981 the Decree on the manner of, and the conditions for the use of languages and scripts of national minorities in proceedings before public administration bodies and organisations vested with public authority was passed ( Official Gazette , no. -
