Croatia Overview

Croatia, officially known as the Republic of Croatia, is a country at the Central and Southeast Europe crossroads on the Adriatic Sea. In the 6th century, Croats arrived, and then by the 9th century, they organized this territory into two ditches.

However, currently, Croatia has been recognized by the World Bank as one of the high-income economies. It also ranked very high in the index of Human Development, agriculture, and industrial sector. Even more, tourism is one of the most significant revenue sources here.
