Folloving the Venetian expansion deep into the Dalmatian hinterland at the end of the Morean war (1684-1699), in the eighteenth century the
Republic faced the challenge of forming a new societyin the new territorial acquisitions. Besides the fact that the Republic had to begin the process of colonization, create an economic strategy, and integrate the newly acquired territories, Venetian authorities had
to continously, with greater or lesser intensity, until the end of its rule, adress the religious issue. This particular issue was especially expressed in the Bukovica region. This paper focuses on the study of the immigration of the Orthodox Morlach population, and their
struggle for religious authonomy, and the efforts on the part of Venetian authorities to take a fi rm stand on the issue.
