Note: The area was inhabited by Serbs (South Slavs) from 6th century BCE. It was controlled by the Byzantine Empire. An organized Serbian state first appeared in the 10th century. Much of the area was annexed by the Ottomans 1459-1812. The area of the current nation, plus additional territory, constituted a nation with the name Yugoslavia 1929-1991. The same name was used for the current nation 1991-2003. Today it is a loose federation of two republics called Serbia and Montenegro. The official language is Serbo-Croatian. |
