Topic: Caslav Klonimirovic


  
  Serbian Rulers - Caslav (927 - ca. 960)
A great-grandson of prince Vlastimir, Caslav was born and raised in the Bulgarian capital Preslav, at the court of tsar Symeon.
Caslav's state, the main Serbian principality of its day, was larger than that of Vlastimir, and encompassed areas of present-day western Serbia, eastern Bosnia and eastern Hercegovina.
And while the Church schism was formally another hundred years in the future, Caslav's leaning towards Constantinople for spiritual apart from political support - with its orthodoxy and right to a comprehensible Slavonic liturgy, as opposed to the rival Roman option - were to have important consequences in the centuries hence.

 History of Bosnia and Herzegovina: A Chronology - HERCEG BOSNA :: Croats of Bosnia and Herzegovina ::
Furthermore, Croatia's belonging to the Western civilization circle was manifested in Western Catholic Christianity (Croatian Dalmatia and Bosnia have been put under the same confessional jurisdiction --either Split or Dubrovnik diocese), and artistical forms of Western (Romanesque) provenance.
Politically, the major part of contemporary Bosnia-Herzegovina has belonged to the Croatian state (except for short intervals, as in time of Serbian prefect Caslav Klonimirovic)- either in the times of Croatian national rulers Trpimirovics (9.-11.cent.), or as a part of Croatian-Hungarian kingdom.
A symbol of political connections between Croatia and Bosnia is the title of "banus", which was, as an exclusively Croatian ruler's title, carried by Bosnian lords since ancient times.
