A bit of history:
During his mandate and thanks to his commitment, a lot has been done on the construction of transportation infrastructure in Dalmatia (roads through Zagora, Strada Marmont to Dubrovnik..) and for education (French authorities have introduced the Croatian and Slovenian language in school). In his time the first newspaper in the Croatian language "Kraglski Dalmatin" has been launched.
