The Treaty of Zadar was the peace treaty signed in Zadar, Dalmatia in 1358 in which the Venetian Republic lost influence over its Dalmatian holdings. The treaty was signed in the Church of St. Francis. Based on the terms of the agreement, the Dubrovnik region and the Zadar region came under the rule of the Hungarian crown (then ruled by Louis I). This treaty marked the rise of the Republic of Dubrovnik as an independent and successful state. The same cannot be said for Zadar since it was later sold back to Venice by Ladislas of Naples.
