SeaSoul Dubrovnik Zaton History

History

In 1358, Dubrovnik (Ragusa) becomes a city-state. The aristocratic Republic is governed by the Rector, whose reign could last for only a month. This is the shortest known mandate of a state ruler in the world history. According to the available archive documents, during some periods in the 15th and 16th century, the Republic of Dubrovnik had the highest per capita income in
Europe. Thanks to its continuous growth during the 16th century, the merchant navy of
Dubrovnik Republic, a state with just 60 000 inhabitants, not larger than 1000
sq km, achieved the status of the most powerful and the most profitable
merchant navy in the world.

In 1416 slavery is banned by law. This is one of the oldest laws of this kind in
Europe, which classifies Dubrovnik among the few enlightened states of the
time.

A diplomat from Dubrovnik officially met in Paris with Benjamin Franklin,
then American ambassador. This marked the recognition of the United States of
America by the Republic of Dubrovnik, the first state to sign the document.
Dubrovnik, a unique historical town, is visited by travellers from all over the
world. The city walls alone attract over one million visitors per year.
