Yugoslavia stamps year 1972 Anniversary of Dubrovnik Law Statutes MNH **
In 1972, Yugoslavia issued a special set of commemorative stamps celebrating the 500th anniversary of the Dubrovnik Law Statutes. These statutes were a significant legal codification that contributed to the governance of the Republic of Ragusa (modern-day Dubrovnik, Croatia) and highlighted its rich cultural and legal heritage.
The Dubrovnik Statutes, originally compiled in 1272, were a comprehensive collection of laws governing the republic’s administrative, judicial, and economic affairs. By 1972, their importance was recognized as a milestone in European legal history, reflecting the Republic of Ragusa’s advanced approach to governance during the medieval and Renaissance periods.
