History [link]

The first Croatian immigrants are said to have moved to Peru shortly after independence in 1821, although the number of immigrants was minimal, not even reaching two hundred individuals by the 1910s.

However, when World War I broke out, many Yugoslavs,^{[citation needed]} particularly Croatians, had no option but to leave their country^{[citation needed]} to avoid political turmoil and the violence^{[citation needed]} about to take place with the Serbian campaign in WWI.^{[citation needed]}

Once again, a heavy wave of Croatian immigration took place once World War II began. This time, however, an estimate of 352 Croatians are recorded to have arrived in Lima.^[2] Many settled in the populous Miraflores district and cultural assimilation was smooth due to similarities in religion and cooperation of the native residents. Immigrant bachelors often married the local women and settled in Lima. Few are known to have left Peru to go back to either Croatia or other countries.

Today 6,400 Peruvians are of Croatian origin and most are Peruvian-born; few of the actual immigrants still remain alive.^[1]

Croatian-Peruvians today [link]

Many Croatian-Peruvians had humble beginnings in Peru, but have progressed greatly from then. Many became renowned in Peru's already successful fishing industry and others were able to obtain steady jobs in other trades. Croatian cuisine had relative fame in Lima and several Croatian-Peruvians opened their own restaurants, which served mostly seafood. Palachinke is a well-known pancake restaurant in Lima of Croatian origin. It owns three establishments in the city.^{[citation needed]}

Influence [link]

Croatian-Peruvians are not a widely known ethnic group in Peru, nonetheless their contributions are noted in everyday life. Most popular among these is the sport of bocce, bochas in English and Spanish, a simple ball game known all over Europe and very popular in Croatia. Gatherings in the affluent Regatas Lima country club in the Limenian district of Chorrillos became common after bocha alleys were constructed there, and soon all over the city. Bochas is now a renowned sport for Croatians and non-Croatians alike all over Peru.
