The Triune Kingdom (Croatian: Trojedna kraljevina) was a formal Croatian entity within the Austro-Hungarian empire, which was composed of several political and administrative areas.[1]
Historically they were united only under a single king, while remaining politically and administratively separated. This meant the term persisted largely in a formal context. The leaders of the 19th Century Croatian National Revival, however, maintained that for most of the second millennium there existed three Croatian realms that formed the United Triune Kingdom. [1]
Before 1848, the Croatian claims on large parts of the territory were contested within the monarchy by both the Hungarians and by the Vienna Court War Council, and outside the monarchy by the Ottoman Empire.[2] During the Revolutions of 1848, the notion of a triune kingdom, which would be the territory of the Croatian cultural and political union, was used by proponents of Croatian nationalism.[3] Political representatives of Croatia advocated the notion with the Emperor and demanded the unification of the three kingdoms.[4][5][6]
Following the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867 and the Croatian-Hungarian Settlement of 1868, the Hungarian claims on Slavonia and the Austrian claims on the Military Frontier were formally relinquished, but there was no change in the status of Dalmatia.[7][8] In article one of the Croatian-Hungarian Settlement of 1868, the territory known as Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen was officially defined as "a state union of the Kingdom of Hungary and the Kingdoms of Dalmatia, Croatia and Slavonia."
In 1874, Ivan Kukuljević Sakcinski published various archival funds and collections in his work Codex Diplomaticus,[9][10] which is now kept in the Croatian State Archives, demonstrating documents from all periods that speak of the Kingdom of Croatia, Dalmatia and Slavonia consisting of:
- Privileges – Privilegia Regnorum Croatiae, Dalmatiae et Slavoniae, dated 1377
- Protocols – Protocolla Congregationis generalis Regnorum Croatiae, Dalmatiae et Slavoniae, dated 1557
- Minutes – Acta Congregationum Regni, dated 1562
- Minutes – Transumpta documentorum iura Croatica tangentium, dated 1249
By the end of the 19th century, the Triune Kingdom was the primary goal of the Independent People's Party[11][12] as well as the People's Party in Dalmatia.[13]
The specific term Triune Kingdom of Dalmatia, Croatia, and Slavonia was used for the Medieval Croatian Kingdom, and the first centuries of the Hapsburg Kingdom of Croatia, up to the early 19th century. The term Triune Kingdom of Croatia, Slavonia, and Dalmatia was used for both the late period (first half of the 19th century) of the Hapsburg Kingdom of Croatia,[1] and its successor the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia.[14][15] The order of mentioning Dalmatia was a contentious issue, as it was ordered differently in the Croatian and Hungarian language versions of the 1868 Settlement.[16]
