History
Croatia's wars
The Hundred Years' Croatian–Ottoman War (Croatian: Stogodišnji hrvatsko-turski rat,[1][2] Stogodišnji rat protiv Turaka,[3][4] Stogodišnji rat s Osmanlijama[5]) is the name for a sequence of conflicts, mostly of relatively low-intensity, ("Small War", Croatian: Mali rat[2]) between the Ottoman Empire and the medieval Kingdom of Croatia(ruled by the Jagiellon and Zápolya dynasties), and the later Habsburg Kingdom of Croatia.
Pope Leo X called Croatia the Antemurale Christianitatis in 1519,[6] given that Croatian soldiers made significant contributions to the struggle against the Turks. The advancement of the Ottoman Empire in Europe was stopped in 1593 on Croatian soil (Battle of Sisak), which could be in this sense regarded as a historical gate of European civilization. Nevertheless the Muslim Ottoman Empire occupied most parts of Croatia from the 15th to the 19th centuries.
