'''Additional''': Historians seem to not place importance on the islands diminishing population during its long history. Periods where the population diminished would be:

* Wars with the Ottoman Empire.

* Also during the infamous Black Plagues in the 16th century.

To start of with, one can  ask the question, what happened to the '''Roman families''' when the Slavs invaded the island of Korcula'''?'''    The Slavic tribes invaded the old Roman Dalmatian province. This part of Korcula's history is very '''unclear''' (in Croatian the c in Korcula is pronounced ''ch'' and is written "'''č'''").
