Serbia Travel Overview
Serbia, founding member of Yugoslavia and Serbia- Montenegro, has always been turbulent when it comes to its size and shape; its borders and cultural heritage have been crossed and determined by 56 armies in recorded history. Romans, Celts, Greeks, Arabs, Huns, Slavs, Persians, Hungarians, Franks, Germans and Turks have shaped this country's identity through different fields: religion, cousine, music, art, monuments, crafts, language and literature- into a unique mixture of the West and Orient. These are the reasons Serbs use two different scripts- Cyrilic and Latin, believe in the Eastern Orthodox God (Greece), serve kebabs and gulash as their "national" dishes (Turkey, Hungary), have toponyms such as Fruska Gora (Frankish Mountain) and Singidunum (Celtic Belgrade); their first kings were crowned by the Vatican, their currency is of Arabic origin, Atilla the Hun was presumably buried in Belgrade as his grave overlooks the Emperor Leopold's Gate (Austria). The most beloved queens in Serbian history were Helen d' Anjou (French), Anna Dondolo (Venetian), Catherine of Hungary, Symonide of Byzantium, Empress Milica (Serbian) and Maria Theresa (Austrian).
Serbia is a Central European (Pannonian) and South European (Balkan) country, with variety of nations, religions and geohistorical regions. If we exclude population of Kosovo which comprises up to 23% of the overall population, the country is a nation of 7.5 million people, out of which 6 million are ethnic Serbs, followed by Hungarians, Bosniaks, Slovaks, Croats, Montenegrins etc. Some 80% of the country is Serbian Orthodox Christian, while 8% are Catholics, with 7% Muslim and the rest beeing atheists. Although official language of Serbia (proper) is Serbian, Vojvodina province ackgnowledges also Hungarian, Slovak, Croatian, Romanian and Rusyn as official; local communes are conducted in Bosniak, Bulgarian and Albanian languages as well, while Kosovo's official language is Albanian apart from Serbian.
