| General Description : | Serie: 121, Type: P, Stamps in serie: 4 Christianity set in on the territory of the Croatian state in the 3rd century under the influence of Roman culture. It was promoted by Roman soldiers and merchants so that, despite persecution, several bishoprics have been founded in the provinces of Dalmatia and Pannonia. At the beginning of the 7th century we can note the advance of Croatian tribes on the European historical stage. Having defeated the Avars after many years of fighting, the Croats drove them away and settled down to stay for ever on the present-day historic and ethnic territory. This is where they encountered the already developed Christianity, i.e., the Roman Catholic faith, whose influence they accepted and were baptized without being forced to do so. |
