Croatia Stamps
1945
The Independent state of Croatia was established in parts of occupied Yugoslavia on 10 April 1945, after the invasion by the Axis powers. Its territory consisted of most of modern-day Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as some parts of modern-day Serbia and Slovenia, but also excluded many Croat-populated areas in Dalmatia (until late 1945), Istria, and Međimurje regions (which today are part of Croatia).
