The Croatian-Slavonian Aristocracy in the 18th Century: Ethnic Origins, Patterns of Promotion and Sources of Income
Croatian early modern area was a conglomerate of territories with various socio-economic systems. In a rather small space one could encounter communal societies of Mediterranean type, mountain ranges inhabited with seminomadic herders, imperial military frontiers settled by militarized population (peasant-soldiers) and feudal society of East-European type, which was in perennial migratory flux due to the vicinity of the Ottomans. In the 18th century, the feudal template in the 'Slavonian' area that witnessed court- supported arrival of European aristocracy after the Great Turkish War (1693-1699), diverged from the one in the 'Croatian' area, which developed more conventionally, from a medieval template. Comparing the two regions, the presentation will address different patterns of formation of its multi-ethnic elites, which determined their projected channels of promotion and general political influence. As for the sources of income, albeit one can state that the agriculture remained the fundamental economic activity, aristocrats from both regions attempted to make profits in manufacture. Where they differed the most was their approach to military offices. It was almost obligatory for 'Croatian' aristocrats to engage on the Military Frontier and to use their military exploits for promotion at the Habsburg court.
