In this "sequel" we will see how Dalmatia, from the scattered cities and islands, has become what we consider Dalmatia today.
I will also explain where the historical pretensions of the Italians to Dalmatia came from.
Let's go in order.

Everything we do and don't know about Dalmatia in the period of 2 centuries after the arrival of the Slavs, ie the end of organized Roman rule and written news about the events in it can be underlined and summarized by the provisions of the Peace treaty in Aachen, signed in 812. 
On April 12, 1304 we have recorded presence of Mathew (emissary of Serbian king Stephen Uroš II Milutin) in #Dubrovnik passing by on a meeting with ban of #Croatia and #Bosnia and master of #Hum Paul I of family #Šubić for the interests of his realm ("na rabotu kraljevstva mi").
Earlier that same month king Milutin wrote to Dubrovnik asking them to prepare a vessel for his emissary and to transport him to the city of #Skradin, where the seat of ban Paul was.

So, we know for a fact that there was a meeting between Croatian ban Paul and emissary of Serbian king Milutin at that time.
Unfortunately, sources don't discover us their true reason and subject.

The province of Dalmatia was large. It included the territories of modern states:
- Croatia
- Bosnia and Herzegovina (without Sava valley)
- Montenegro and
- (western) Serbia.
Well, how did we come from THAT Dalmatia to what we know today under the term Dalmatia? ⬇️

The Romans ruled this area continuously for 411 years (until 480).
In those 400 years or so, there have been several territorial reorganizations and changes in borders, we have no room to list them all. But one was crucial... ⬇️

Porijeklo imena Dalmacije.
Ime Dalmacija je rimsko i datira iz prvog stoljeća poslije Krista.
Međutim, korijen toga naziva još je stariji, ne znamo ni sami koliko datira u prošlost...

Prve vijesti u pisanom tragu o našim krajevima ostavili su nam stari Grci.
Oni su još u 4. stoljeću prije Krista uplovili u Jadran i osnovali nekoliko svojih kolonija, na otocima i obali.
Time zapravo započinje povijest ovih krajeva. ⬇️
