Croatia holds a unique position within Europe. It is a border and at the same time a link between four cultural areas: the north-central European, the southern Mediterranean, the west European, and the east European, and thus Croatian culture encompasses influences of all these cultural regions. Attracting tourists and visitors since the early 14th century, the country has since become one of the leading central European tourist attractions.
