The Albona Republic (Croatian: Labinska republika) was a short-lived miner-established republic in Albona, Istria, in 1921. It was created in what been described as the world's first anti-fascist uprising.[1]

The Albona Republic was also named during the Romans occupation of the area, pages V-VI. To be a Republic, Albona had to have two government officials nominated in Rome the capital of the Roman Empire.[2]
