The greatest part of the documentary material before 1991 was collected and analysed by the Museum of the Revolution of the Peoples of Croatia. From 1991 to 1996 the collection acquired documentary material concerning the Patriotic War and the multi-party political system in Croatia. The historical documents from World War II began to be collected during the war, after the War Museum and Archives of the Independent State of Croatia was founded on May 16 1941. During World War II Partisan units and antifascist organisations also collected and kept material relevant to the Struggle for National Liberation.
