History of the Croatian language

The first traces of Croatian come from the ninth century!
It originated from the so-called Old Slavonic language, which originally played a mainly religious role. The Old Slavic language gradually adapted to secular purposes and over time its Croatian variant took shape. By the 9th century, it was part of the Glagolitic alphabet, the oldest known Slavic script, created by Sts.
Cyril. Interestingly, by the 19th century Croatian was written with three different alphabets: Latin, Glagolitic and Croatian Cyrillic.

In the middle of the 16th century Croatian became a developed form of the language. 

Use of Croatian in business

Croatian is used in several countries, but they do not play a significant role on the international scene. Since Croatia has become known as one of the favorite holiday destinations of Bulgarians, Croatian can be used in the country’s relations with Bulgaria.
