Religion in Croatia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Religion in Croatia is chiefly Roman Catholic. During the 1990s there was conflict between the Eastern Orthodox Serbs, the Roman Catholic Croats, and the Muslim Bosniaks. This caused a massive civil war in Bosnia. The constitution provides for freedom of religion. Approximately 5.5% of Croats self-identify as non-religious.[1] Although the Croatian government requires religious teaching in public schools, attendance is not mandated. There is no state religion, although the Catholic Church receives public funding and other benefits.
