Sažetak
16th and 17th century were crucial for the history of Umag. A city which had a moderate economic and demographic development in the first centuries of the 2nd millennium A.D., and consequently spread to hinterland, was categorized as an unhealthy part of the province in the next centuries. Despite having the prerequisite for, although modest, economic and demographic progress, it did not occur because of bad hygienic and sanitary conditions which slowed the growth of population and with that, indirectly, the economic development. Demographic decrease which affected the city and its surrounding area was in opposition to intensive Venetian colonisation which brought people from the Balkans hoping to populate abandoned villages thus removing the economic decline. With that begun the century and a half long process which filled the demographic void, caused by frequent epidemics and wars, and at the same time it changed the ethnic structure of the entire area.
