The Korenic-Neoric Armorial is a 1595 copy of the lost original of the Ohmucevic Armorial commissioned by Petar Ohmucevic, a Spanish admiral of Ragusan origin, at some point between 1584 and 1594.
It is an example of the "Interconfessional" form of Illyrism, which formed the ideological basis for the later rise of nationalism in the South-Eastern Europe.
The armorial combines historical (late medieval) with fictional coats of arms to construct the notion of an "Illyrian Empire".
