#REDIRECT [[List_of_Croats]] |
|||
This is a list of [[person|people]] who are today being acclaimed as being of Croatian heritage, but those born prior to the 20th century may not have considered themselves to be associated with any past or current Croatian state, and certainly not all of them can be categorized to be of immediate Croatian ancestry. |
|||
The list includes both [[Croats]] and members of modern Croatia's ethnic [[minorities]]. |
|||
The sections are sorted in the alphabetic order. Most people listed are [[famous]], while some are also notably infamous. |
|||
The [[#Other|bottom section]] also includes some corner cases: |
|||
* people born in parts of Illyria/Illyricum before the Great migrations |
|||
* people with less direct or less certain Croatian ancestry. |
