The Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) is a right-wing political party which ruled the country from 1990 to 2000 and, in coalition, since 2003. It was established in 1989 by Croatian nationalist dissidents. At the legislative elections of November 2003, the party won 33.90% of the popular vote and 66 out of 151 seats. Although it failed to win a clear majority in Croatian Parliament, it formed a coalition government with several other parties, among which the traditionally left-wing Croatian Party of Pensioners. HDZ is an associated member of the European People's Party (EPP).

In the 17th century, Croatian soldiers used to wear a little piece of cloth around their neck. In France, people were enthusiastic about it and adopted this fashion, calling the piece of cloth “de Croat” (of Croatians). That is where the actual name of “cravatta” (necktie) is deriving from.
