The research I have done in the last three years has led me to this conclusion concerning the history of Dubrovnik area (for now anyway.... I'm always open to new information).

'''The''' ancient peoples of Dubrovnik identified themselves as '''Ragusans'''. Latin-Illyrian families created the Republic of Ragusa. Modern theories say that a small town was already there during the times of the Roman Empire (some say even earlier).<ref>Note: Recent findings of artefacts in Dubrovnik suggest to be [[Greece|Greek]] in origin.</ref>

Refugees from Roman Epidaurus in the 7th century turned it into a fortified city. Over the centuries, it became a City State importantly called Ragusa. Later it became a Republic (1358), also importantly called Republic of Ragusa (Latin version: Communitas Ragusina ''then'' renamed Respublica Ragusina). The early medieval City State had a population of Romans and Latinized Illyrians, who spoke '''Latin'''. With time it evolved into the Dalmatian language (Ragusan Dalmatian) , a now extinct Romance language. The Ragusan Dalmatian language disappeared in the 17th century.<ref>'''Encyclopedia Britannica''' {{quote|
