From prehistoric times and antiquity, when the first colonies on the islands and coast appeared, and the first Croatian kings were crowned, where wars were fought over this small piece of coast that was conquered and re-conquered by those to whom it belonged, the conflicts and the victims have created legends and heroes, protectors and saints. And that is why its inhabitants have loved it, protected it, defended it, and died for it. This was no accident; the heart has always written the history of this region. That is the way it was when, on the 1 May 305 A.D., the Roman Emperor Gaius Valerius Diocletianus departed from Rome towards his new home, a luxurious imperial palace on the site of present day Split because he wanted to spend the days of his imperial retirement on the gentle bay overgrown with Spanish broom where he had spent his youth. The entire world was at his feet, he could have gone anywhere, but he was ruled by - his heart. In later centuries, and for 1,700 years, the heart also created from the imperial palace the core of the largest urban centre on the Adriatic. In much the same way, various rulers, nobles and other distinguished persons of their time have written the history of the islands of Vis, Hvar and Brač, and the cities of Trogir, Omiš, Makarska, Solin, Sinj and Kaštel. That is why in central Dalmatia, barely the 20th century. Most of his works on the coast, the islands, or in front of the chance traveller.
