Croatia: 350 Years of the University of Zagreb - FDC

In the academic year 2019/2020, the University of Zagreb celebrated 350 years since its founding in 1669. It is the oldest continuously operating university in Croatia, and one of Europe's oldest universities.

Its history began on 23 September 1669, when the Holy Roman Emperor and King of Hungary and Croatia, Leopold I Habsburg, issued a decree granting the Jesuit Academy in the Free Royal City of Zagreb the status and privileges of a university institution. The recognition was adopted by the Parliament of the Kingdom of Croatia on 3 November 1671. Therefore, the University considers 1669 as the year of its founding and 3 November is celebrated as University Day. 

Having started with three faculties and 200 enrolled students, the university has, in the more than three centuries of its existence, grown to today's 34 constituent units and more than 70,000 students.

Croatia: Football - Silver Medal at the FIFA World Cup 2018

The 2018 FIFA World Cup Final took place on 15 July 2018 to determine the winners of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. The match was contested by France and Croatia, and held at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, Russia. France won the match 4–2, having taken a 2–1 lead during the first half on an own goal and penalty awarded by the video assistant referee (VAR), both firsts in a World Cup final. However, to win the silver medal was a huge success for coach Zlatko Dalić and his croatian team. Because of this Hrvatska Post issued this nice minisheet shown on the cover below sent from the capital of Croatia Zagreb.
