Dalmatia

Dalmatia was an Adriatic coastal region around Zadar, Split and Dubrovnik. Its cities passed between Venice and the Hungarian-Croatian crown.

Venice ruled much of the coast from 1420 to 1797, while Ragusa remained a separate republic. The Treaty of Campo Formio transferred Venetian Dalmatia to Austria in 1797. After French rule, the Congress of Vienna established an Austrian Kingdom of Dalmatia at Zadar in 1815.
