This analysis demonstrates the impact of Ottoman expansion on the confessional structure and Catholic practices in conquered territories, indicating significant demographic shifts.

Key Points

The Ottoman expansion led to the islamization of territories, drastically reducing the Catholic population and altering their social dynamics.
Confessional changes were highlighted by the destruction or conversion of Catholic churches into Muslim places of worship during the 16th century.
In the 18th century, Catholic Croats, particularly around the bosnian apostolic vicariate, maintained tradition in remote areas with limited access to sacred buildings.
Religious practices evolved with adaptations in geographical settings, creating unique forms of gathering as reflected in the preservation of terms like oltar in local names.
