Split
(Croatian pronunciation: [splît]) is the second-largest city of Croatia and the largest city of the region of Dalmatia.
It lies on the eastern shore of the Adriatic Sea, centered on the Roman Palace of the Emperor Diocletian.

An intraregional transport hub and popular tourist destination, the city is a link to numerous Adriatic islands and the Apennine peninsula.
