Coat of Arms of Serbia

Rulers of medieval Serbian states

In the Middle Ages, the domain of the Serbs included six territories, roughly sorted by importance:

Different dynasties sometimes arose from different regions, and this list concentrates on those rulers whose families at some point controlled Raška as well as other aforementioned duchies.

Earliest rulers

After the Unknown Archont, two rulers who were possibly of a different dynasty ruled up to 680:

Vlastimirovići

Vojislavljevići

Đorđe was overturned by Uroš I of Raška, and later returned to power in Duklja between 1125 and 1131, but the main line of the Vojislavljević ended with him.

Vojislavljevići/Uroševići

Between 1050 and 1165, the main Serbian state of Raška was ruled by descendents of the aforementioned House of Vojislavljević, but the Byzantine Empire often controlled it as well. In 1118, the main line of the Vojislavljević dynasty was mostly extinguished in Duklja, and Uroš of Raška took control of both Raška and Duklja, which is why he named the Uroševići.

After Desa's revolt, in 1165 the Byzantium divided the Serb lands between the four sons of Zavida: Tihomir in Raška, Stracimir in Duklja, Miroslav in Zahumlje and Travunia, and Nemanja in Toplica (in today's central Serbia). Tihomir rebelled against the Byzantium, but only Stracimir supported him: Miroslav and Nemanja did not.

Nemanja defeated Tihomir and Stracimir with Byzantine help, and founded the Nemanjić dynasty. Miroslav's descendents remained the župans of Hum and Travunia in the following period, while Nemanja appointed his son Vukan as the ruler of Duklja.

Nemanjići

Lazarevići

The House of Lazarević (1371a href="1427.html" title="1427">1427) had two rulers:

In 1377, the Bosnian King Tvrtko I Kotromanić of the House of Kotromanić had proclaimed himself the king of Serbs and Bosnia and the Seaside and the Western lands. In 1390, Tvrtko proclaimed himself the king of Rascia, Bosnia, Dalmatia, Croatia and the Seaside. His rule lasted until 1391.

Brankovići

The House of Branković (1427a href="1459.html" title="1459">1459) had three rulers:

Another Bosnian king of the House of Kotromanić ruled over Serbia - Stefan Tomašević in 1459.

Rulers of modern Serbian states

Rebel leader

Princes of Serbia, 1815-1882

Obrenović Dynasty, 1815-1842

Karađorđević Dynasty, 1842-1858

Obrenović Dynasty, 1858-1882

Kings of Serbia, 1882-1918

Obrenović Dynasty, 1882-1903

Karađorđević Dynasty, 1903-1918

In 1918, Serbia became part of the newly formed Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. Later that state changed name in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (i.e. Kingdom of South Slavs). In that period (between World War I and II) the country was a parliamentary monarchy nominally ruled by the Karađorđević dynasty.

After World War II and the socialist revolution, the country was reformed as the socialist federation of 'republics' ruled by Josip Broz Tito. After his death in 1980, the federation started a process of dissolution which finished in a series of civil wars in the early 1990s. Through the 1990s, Serbia and Montenegro comprised the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, which recently (in 2003) has been restructured into a confederation called Serbia and Montenegro. Currently Serbia is a parliamentary democracy.

The current Karađorđvić pretender to either the Serbian or the Yugoslavian throne is the last Crown Prince Alexander of Yugoslavia, who apparently would like to become Aleksandar IV of Serbia.
