Triune Kingdom was part of Austria-Hungary during World War I. Its territory was administratively divided between the Austrian and Hungarian parts of the empire; Međimurje and Baranja were in the Hungarian part (Transleithania), the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia was a separate entity associated with the Hungarian Kingdom, Dalmatia and Istria were in the Austrian part (Cisleithania), while the town of Rijeka had semi-autonomous status.The unification of Croat-inhabited territories was a fundamental problem that had not been resolved with the creation of Dual Monarchy in 1867. An excess of political problems within Austria-Hungary itself, exacerbated by the earlier Balkan Wars, led to a state of unrest, strikes, and series of assassinations within Croatia at the outbreak of World War I. Croatian policy amounted to either trying to find the best solution whilst staying within the empire (such as Trialism in Austria-Hungary or Austro-Slavism) or unifying with Serbia and Montenegro (namely Yugoslavism), thereby forming a South Slavic state. Political action was extremely limited during the war, with much of the power being held by the Austro-Hungarian military authorities. Calling for the creation of a unified South Slavic state was thus equated with treason.During World War I, Croats fought mainly on the Serbian Front, the Eastern Front and the Italian Front, against Serbia, Russia, and Italy, respectively. A small number of Croats also fought on other fronts. Some Croats, mostly Croatian Americans or Austro-Hungarian Army deserters, fought on the side of the Allies. Croatia suffered great human and economic losses during the war, which were exacerbated by the outbreak of Spanish flu pandemic in 1918. Croatian military losses likely amounted to 190,000 people, while some sources list about 137,000 military and 109,000 civilian casualties.With Austria-Hungary's imminent defeat and collapse, on 29 October 1918, the Croatian Parliament declared the country's secession from the empire. Croatia subsequently joined the short-lived State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs, which was united with Serbia to form the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes on 1 December 1918.

The participation of the Croatia in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest first began at the inaugural Junior Eurovision Song Contest in 2003 which took place in Copenhagen, Denmark. Hrvatska radiotelevizija (HRT), a member organisation of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), were responsible for the selection process of their participation. Croatia originally used a national selection format for their participation at the contests. The first representative to participate for the nation at the 2003 contest was Dino Jelusić with the song "Ti si moja prva ljubav" , which finished in first place out of sixteen participating entries, achieving a score of one hundred and thirty-four points. Croatia first withdrew from competing in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest in 2007. After seven years of absence, Croatia decided to return to the contest in 2014 which was held in Marsa , Malta and selected their entry internally. However after placing last with Josie and the song "Game Over", Croatian broadcaster HRT again withdrew from competing the following year, and have yet to make their return to the contest.

Croatia was represented by Ivan Mikulić and the song "You Are The Only One". The Croatian Final "Dora" was held in the Crystal Ballroom of the Hotel Kvarner in Opatija on March 14, hosted by Dusko Curlic, Tihana Zrnic and Barbara Radulović. Before the final, two semi-finals were held in which the top 6 songs qualified. The winner was chosen by regional televoting and SMS voting. 'Daješ mi krila' was chosen by the Croatian jury and public with 71 points. Ivan Mikulić previously came 11th in the 1995 Croatian Final, 8th in 1996, 13th in 1997, 11th in 1998 and 9th in 2002.At Eurovision, Ivan sang his song in English and delivered a subtle and simple performance. The stage went completely dark with his back-up singers lined up behind him. In the end Ivan scored the same number of points as Malta, 50, but as the tie breaking rules was not yet implemented for acts other than the winning song Belarus ended up in a joint 12th place.

The Croatia Rally, also known for most of its existence as the Delta Rally or Croatia Delta Rally, is an international rally racing event based in Poreč in the on the coast of Istria in Croatia. The event is organised by the Croatian Car and Karting Federation and is a round of the European Rally Championship, the Serbian Rally Championship, the Slovenian Rally Championship. In most years it is a round of the Croatian Rally Championship. The event had been a round of the Yugoslavian Rally Championship. It has been a tarmac rally since at least the late 1980s. In 2011 the rallies' histories became split as the Croatia Rally and the Delta Rally became two separate events with the Delta Rally returning to the Croatia Delta Rally's former home of Zagreb.First run in 1974 as the INA-Delta TLX Rally as a round of the regional Croatian championship, it was held in the Delnice-Rijeka area, slightly inland of its current Poreč home. The event was promoted to the Yugoslavian championship in 1977 and acquired a finish in the regional city of Zagreb. The 1986 event was an invitational only event held as a candidate event for the European Rally Championship. Under the co-efficient system the rally varied in importance within the European championship drifting through co-efficients 2, 5 and 10 in the 1990s. With the rally based in the north western part of Croatia it was able to continue during the years of the Croatian War of Independence.In 2004 the rally was demoted to the European Rally Cup East as the co-efficient system fragmented into minor championships titled "Cups" before returning to the European championship in 2007. 2011 saw the rally return to its original Rijeka region before moving to its current location in 2013 as the event celebrated its 40th anniversary, while successfully maintaining its position on the calendar of the ERC after the merger of the ERC and the Intercontinental Rally Challenge, although the rally was moved from its traditional May date to a September date.In 2011 as the Croatia Rally moved to Rijeka, the Delta rally broke away and re-established itself in the Zagreb area as a round of the Croatian championship before being added to the Central European Zone series in 2013.Yugoslav drivers won the first 19 years of the event with Brane Kuzmič winning five times in a six-year period driving a Renault 5. Austrian driver Raimund Baumschlager was the first foreign winner in 1993 as the rally upgraded its international status. Enrico Bertone became the first foreign repeat winner in 1999 but locals continued to have a strong influence with Juraj Šebalj winning three times in the mid-2000s. Šebalj would also win the Delta Rally twice more post-split.

In Croatia Meat CC v Millennium Properties (Pty) Ltd (Sofokleous Intervening), an important case in the South African law of lease, Sofokleous ran a supermarket from premises leased from Millennium Properties, which owned the shopping centre in which the supermarket was situated.Clause 6.4 of the lease agreement prohibited Millennium from leasing other premises in the shopping centre for the purpose of conducting a business similar to that of the lessee.When Sofokleous realised that Millennium had entered into a lease with Croatia Meat, giving the latter the right to run a butchery from the shopping centre, he sought an interdict prohibiting Millennium from permitting any person other than himself from conducting a butchery business from any premises in that centre.The two main issues in the two applications werewhether Millennium had breached its lease with Sofokleous by entering into the lease with Croatia; and, if so,whether Sofokleous was entitled to an interdict or Croatia to an order for specific performance.The court held that Sofokleous was running a fully equipped butchery from within the supermarket, and that it could not be said that his was a supermarket that merely sold meat as a part of its usual range of food. Millennium had acted in breach of clause 6.4 of the lease agreement with Sofokleous when it entered into the lease with Croatia.The question was which of the competing and irreconcilable claims for specific performance by the innocent parties, Sofokleous and Croatia, should be enforced, and which party had to be left with a claim for damages against Millennium.The court held that, although the damages Sofokleous would suffer on a month-to-month basis appeared to be less than what Croatia was suffering, Croatia was able to limit its damages by finding alternative premises if Sofokleous's claim were upheld, resulting in a loss far less than the long-term loss that Sofokleous would suffer. There was thus no overriding equity that favoured either of the claims for specific performance.The rule qui prior est tempore potior est jure, as applied to the law of double sales, had therefore to be applied. Sofokleous's claim was upheld and that of Croatia dismissed.

Croatia, following its independence, made its Paralympic Games début at the 1992 Summer Paralympics in Barcelona, sending three competitors in swimming, two in shooting and one in track and field.

It first participated in the Winter Paralympics in 2002, with two representatives in alpine skiing, and has entered every edition of the Winter Games since then.Croatians have won a total of twenty-one Paralympic medals, of which six gold, five silver and ten bronze. Nineteen of these medals have been won at the Summer Games, in track and field, swimming or table tennis. And with the exception of Milinković's early bronze, all have been won from 2004 games onwards. At the Winter Games Croatia has won two medals, gold in alpine skiing and bronze in snowboarding.

Croatia's currency, the kuna, has used the euro (and prior to that one of the euro's major predecessors, the German mark or Deutschmark) as its main reference since its creation in 1994, and a long-held policy of the Croatian National Bank has been to keep the kuna's exchange rate with the euro within a relatively stable range.Croatia's EU membership obliges it to eventually join the eurozone, as such the country plans to join the European Monetary System, the pathway to euro adoption. Prior to Croatian entry to the EU on 1 July 2013, Boris Vujčić, governor of the Croatian National Bank, stated that he would like the kuna to be replaced by the euro as soon as possible after accession. This must be at least two years after Croatia joins the ERM2 (in addition to it meeting other criteria). The Croatian National Bank had anticipated euro adoption within two or three years of EU entry. However, the EU's response to the ongoing financial crises in eurozone states may delay Croatia's adoption of the euro. The country's own contracting economy also poses a major challenge to it meeting the convergence criteria. While keen on euro adoption, one month before Croatia's EU entry governor Vujčić admitted "...we have no date [to join the single currency] in mind at the moment". Before Croatia can join ERM II, it must reduce its budget deficit by about 1.5 billion kuna (June 2013 figures). The European Central Bank was expecting Croatia to be approved for ERM II membership in 2016 at the earliest, with euro adoption in 2019.Many small businesses in Croatia had debts denominated in euros before EU accession. Croatian people already use the euro for most savings and many informal transactions. Real estate, motor vehicle and accommodation prices are mostly quoted in euros.

In Croatia Meat CC v Millennium Properties (Pty) Ltd (Sofokleous Intervening), an important case in the South African law of lease, Sofokleous ran a supermarket from premises leased from Millennium Properties, which owned the shopping centre in which the supermarket was situated.Clause 6.4 of the lease agreement prohibited Millennium from leasing other premises in the shopping centre for the purpose of conducting a business similar to that of the lessee.When Sofokleous realised that Millennium had entered into a lease with Croatia Meat, giving the latter the right to run a butchery from the shopping centre, he sought an interdict prohibiting Millennium from permitting any person other than himself from conducting a butchery business from any premises in that centre.The two main issues in the two applications werewhether Millennium had breached its lease with Sofokleous by entering into the lease with Croatia; and, if so,whether Sofokleous was entitled to an interdict or Croatia to an order for specific performance.The court held that Sofokleous was running a fully equipped butchery from within the supermarket, and that it could not be said that his was a supermarket that merely sold meat as a part of its usual range of food.
