Zagreb is the capital and the largest city of Croatia.
The oldest settlement located in the vicinity of the city was the Roman Andautonia, in today's Ščitarjevo. The name "Zagreb" is recorded in 1134, in reference to the foundation of the settlement at Kaptol in 1094.
Zagreb became a free royal town in 1242.
In 1851 Zagreb had its first mayor, Janko Kamauf.
In 1945 Zagreb was made the capital of Croatia when the demographic boom and the urban sprawl made the city as it is known today.
During the period of former Yugoslavia, Zagreb remained an important economic center of the country and was the second largest city.
After Croatia declared independence from Yugoslavia, Zagreb was proclaimed its capital.
During the 1991–1995 Croatian War of Independence, it was a scene of some sporadic fighting surrounding its JNA army barracks but escaped major damage. In May 1995, it was targeted by Serb rocket artillery in two Zagreb rocket attacks which killed seven civilians.
