Mr Branimir is the first Croatian, really. His tribe the old Slavic Chakavian speakers are the first Croatians (Hrvati). Early medieval Western Balkans must had have multiple Slavic ethnic tribes which there history has not been recorded. They were all identified as Slavs a Greco-Roman perspective. The Slavs found themselves living amongst a medieval multi-ethnic region. It was the most powerful chieftains, leaders who left a mark on history.

The first question I ask how far back does one go in proclaiming Croatian nationhood. In the past the Yugoslav Communist party, Pan-Slavism and the Croatian Nationalistic movements have taken this to extremes. These Pan-Slaviic, Nationalistic and Communist ideologies have created so much pain, destruction and falsehoods.
