Sažetak
The island of Krk and thus the Dubašnica Parish on it were not directly subjected to combat operations during the First World War. Nevertheless, although in the war’s periphery, wartime events also had an impact on this area. Over and above the misfortunes caused by the war, crops failed during those years, so that unprecedented starvation ensued and sickness and epidemics took many lives. Some Dubašnica residents were also slain in the war. All of this was reflected in the local mortality rate. The highest number of deceased in the early 20th century was recorded during these wartime years. The findings on causes of death in the Dubašnica Parish on the island of Krk during the First World War (1914-1918) are presented in this paper.
