Adrijanci
Adrijanci (Adrians) refers primarily to the inhabitants of the Adriatic Sea region, encompassing the coastal areas and islands of the Adriatic Sea. The term is often used loosely to describe people originating from or associated with the Adriatic coastline, including countries like Croatia, Italy, Slovenia, Montenegro, Albania, and Bosnia and Herzegovina (to a lesser extent, due to its limited coastline).
The term carries geographical and sometimes cultural connotations, often highlighting shared maritime traditions, historical connections, and aspects of life shaped by the Adriatic Sea. It's not a strict ethnic or national identifier, but rather a descriptive term based on geographical proximity to the Adriatic Sea.
The term can also be used historically to refer to populations that have inhabited the Adriatic region throughout history, encompassing various empires, kingdoms, and cultural groups that have influenced the area.
