Šokci are Croats from Bosnia Bunjevci from Herzegovina. They developed unique regional character because they lived among non-Croats (mostly Hungarians, Germans and Serbs).
They descend from people who fled BiH during Turkish conquest and settled in empty lands of Slavonia, Vojvodina and southern Hungary.
Than these identities started to form. They were living on their own surrounded by foreigners.
But there's big amount of both in Croatia itself and they still keep their traditions. Most are conservative and consider themself purer Croats than city folk.
I'm part Bosnian Šokac.
