Summary

The fifteenth century was decisive for establishing Venetian rule along the Eastern coast of the Adriatic. For decades, historiography on the topic has been rather fragmented between national historiographies that barely examined the region as a whole and a few scattered attempts at international Mediterranean studies. This essay seeks to reflect recent discussions on Venetian statehood and current research in Croatian and Albanian historiography.
