In 1940, Anti-semitic legislation began to be passed in Yugoslavia, impacting the Jewish population in Croatia. These laws restricted various aspects of daily life for Jewish individuals, including their ability to work, own property, and attend schools. As the discriminatory measures escalated, the Jewish community in Croatia faced increasing persecution and isolation. Businesses were confiscated, synagogues were vandalized, and families were torn apart. The Anti-semitic legislation created a climate of fear and uncertainty among the Jewish population in Croatia, leading many to seek ways to escape the oppressive restrictions. This marked a dark and distressing period in Croatian history, characterized by the systematic marginalization and discrimination of an entire group of people based on their religious beliefs. #Yugoslavia #Croatia #Antisemitism #JewishHistory #Discrimination
