Changes

It is quiet possible the success of the Chakavian-Slavic tribes set the precedent for the Kajkavian-Slavic speakers and Shtokavian-Slavic speakers to follow suit. There is a probability that the eastern Chakavian-Slavic tribes and Shtokavian-Slavic speakers started to mix with the Shtokavian-Slavic language becoming the Lingua Franca within the eastern part of Old Roman Dalmatia (thus begins Shtokavian-Slavic language move westward).

The first written records of Croatians started in the late 8th and early 9th century. I believe one of the reasons was that the Croatian tribes started to become western Europeanised. Within Dalmatian Ducatus of the Carolingian Empire certain Croatian leaders became the political elite and took political leadership.  In order to keep this they became  Christians thus connecting with Rome (''via'' Carolingian Empire, the Dalmatian Roman City States i.e Spalatum and the Republic of Venice). Then we have creating military alliances and trade with neighbors, etc then after a period of time the mainland was mostly Slavicized.

In terms of language Croatian Slavic Chakavian became Lingua Franca of the area and started to replace Latin Dalmatian (Romance).   

With this all happening the Carolingian Empire (as well as others) thought it to be good idea to work with as much as possible with the new arrivals Sclaveni-Croatorum for the there own invested interests.
