{Dоwnlоаd/Rеаd PDF Bооk} Serbia SERBIA PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Laurence Mitchell | 408 pages | 15 Oct 2013 | BRADT TRAVEL GUIDES | 9781841624631 | English | Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom Visit Serbia - Serbia Croatian demands for a federal state led Alexander to assume dictatorial powers in and to change the country's name to Yugoslavia. Serbian dominance continued despite his efforts, amid the resentment of other regions. Paul's pro-Axis policy brought Yugoslavia to sign the Axis Pact on March 25, , and opponents overthrew the government two days later. On April 6 the Nazis occupied the country, and the young king and his government fled. In , Tito established a provisional government, and in he won the federal election while monarchists boycotted the vote. The monarchy was abolished and the Communist Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia, with Tito as prime minister, was born. Tito ruthlessly eliminated the opposition and broke with the Soviet bloc in Yugoslavia followed a middle road, combining orthodox Communist control of politics and general overall economic policy with a varying degree of freedom in the arts, travel, and individual enterprise. Tito became president in and president-for-life under a revised constitution adopted in After Tito's death on May 4, , a rotating presidency designed to avoid internal dissension was put into effect, and the feared clash of Yugoslavia's multiple nationalities and regions appeared to have been averted. In , Slobodan Milosevic became president of the Serbian republic. His arch-nationalism and calls for Serbian domination inflamed ethnic tensions and spurred on the breakup of Yugoslavia. Bosnia's declaration of independence led to even more brutal fighting. The largely Serbian-led Yugoslav military pounded Bosnia, and with Yugoslavia's help, the Bosnian Serb minority took the offensive against Bosnian Muslims. It carried out ruthless campaigns of ethnic cleansing, which involved the expulsion or massacre of Muslims. In Nov. Despite entangling his country in almost continuous war for four years and bringing it to near economic collapse, the Serbian government of Slobodan Milosevic maintained its effective control over the remainder of Yugoslavia. Constitutionally barred from another term as president of Serbia, Milosevic became president of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia which at this stage consisted of just Serbia and Montenegro in July More than Kosovars were killed in the fighting, and the hundreds of thousands forced to flee their homes were without adequate food and shelter. The proof of civilian massacres finally gave NATO the impetus to intervene for the first time ever in the dealings of a sovereign nation with its own people. NATO's reason for involvement in Kosovo changed from avoiding a wider Balkan war to preventing a human rights calamity. Weeks of daily bombings destroyed significant Serbian military targets, yet Milosevic showed no signs of relenting. In fact, Serbian militia stepped up civilian massacres and deportations in Kosovo, and by the end of the conflict, the UN high commissioner for refugees estimated that at least , people had fled Kosovo. In the Sept. In , Milosevic was turned over to the United Nations International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia in The Hague, charged with 66 war crimes, including genocide and crimes against humanity. His expensive and lengthy trial ended without a verdict when he died in March In March , the nation agreed to form a new state, replacing Yugoslavia with a loose federation called Serbia and Montenegro, which went into effect in Feb. The new arrangement was made to placate Montenegro's restive stirrings for independence and allowed Montenegro to hold a referendum on independence after three years. The prime minister of the Serbian state, Zoran Djindjic, a reformer who helped bring about the fall of Milosevic, was assassinated in March Extreme nationalists, organized crime, and Serbia's own police and security services were implicated. On March 17, , Mitrovica, in Kosovo, experienced the worst ethnic violence in the region since the war. At least 19 people were killed, another were injured, and about 4, Serbs lost their homes. NATO sent in an extra 1, troops to restore order. Tadic planned to work toward gaining EU membership for Serbia, but in , the EU suspended its membership talks with Serbia, after the country repeatedly failed to turn over Ratko Mladic, the Bosnian Serb commander wanted on genocide charges for the massacre of 8, Muslims from Srebrenica. In May , Montenegro held a referendum on independence, which narrowly passed. On June 4 the federal president of Serbia and Montenegro, Svetozar Marovic, announced the dissolution of his office, and the following day Serbia acknowledged the end of the union. The decision spared Serbia from having to pay war reparations to Bosnia. The court's president, Judge Rosalyn Higgins, however, criticized Serbia for not preventing the genocide. The court also ordered Serbia to turn over Bosnian Serb leaders, including Ratko Mladic and Radovan Karakzic, who are accused of orchestrating the genocide and other crimes. In April, four Serbs—former paramilitary officers—were found guilty by a war- crimes court of executing six Bosnian Muslims from Srebrenica in Trnovo in The judge, however, did not link them to the massacre in Srebrenica. Negotiations between the European Union, Russia, and Washington on the future of Kosovo ended in stalemate in November Tomislav Nikolic, of the hardline nationalist Radical Party, prevailed over Tadic in the first round of presidential elections in January , taking Tadic prevailed in February's runoff election, winning Kosovo's prime minister Hashim Thaci declared independence from Serbia on Feb. Serbia, as predicted, denounced the move. Serbian prime minister Kostunica said he would never recognize the "false state. International reaction was mixed, with the United States, France, Germany, and Britain indicating that they planned to recognize Kosovo as the world's th country. Serbia and Russia, however, called the move a violation of international law. Prime Minister Vojislav Kostunica dissolved the government on March 8, , stating that he could not govern with President Tadic, who is in favor of gaining European Union membership and improving relations with the United States. President Tadic called for early elections in May. On May 11, , President Tadic's coalition won parliamentary elections with The Serbian Radical Party earned The Democratic Party's Mirko Cvetkovic became prime minister. The government vowed to tame the nationalistic fervor that has raised concern internationally, particularly when Kosovo declared independence in February Cveetkovic also said Serbia will reach out to the West and join the European Union. Radovan Karadzic, the Bosnian Serb president during the war in Bosnia in the s who orchestrated the massacre of almost 8, Muslim men and boys in in Srebrenica, was found outside Belgrade in July He altered his appearance and had been openly practicing alternative medicine in Serbia. His trial at The Hague began in October On October 8, , in a rare move, the United Nations voted to request that the International Court of Justice review the manner in which Kosovo declared independence. Serbia, which initiated the request, considers Kosovo a breakaway territory that acted illegally in declaring independence. Most European Union members abstained from voting on the request. In December , Serbia applied to join the EU. The Serbian parliament apologized for the massacre of Bosnian Serbs at Srebrenica in a landmark March resolution. Delaying Serbia's request for EU membership was the fact that two major war crimes suspects were still at large. Mladic's war crimes trial opened at the Hague opened in May The EU cleared Serbia for membership talks in April after Serbia and Kosovo normalized relations in a groundbreaking deal in which Serbia acknowledged that Kosovo's government has control over all of Kosovo, and Kosovo in turn granted autonomy to the Serbian-dominated north. Serbia stopped short of recognizing Kosovo's independence, however. Nationalist leader Tomislav Nikolic—a former ally of Slobodan Milosevic —pulled off a surprise victory over incumbent Boris Tadic in the second round of presidential elections in May Nikolic's win followed parliamenteary elections in which his center-right Serbian Progressive Party and its partners took 73 out of seats. Nikolic has tempered his extreme nationalism and now favors European integration. The prosecution recounted the atrocities that soldiers directly under Maldic's command allegedly performed.

The project is realized at the initiative of PE „Belgrade Fortress“, and in cooperation with University of Belgrade Faculty of Architecture and with the Public Art & Public Space program (University of Belgrade, Faculty of Architecture). The project is financed by the Municipality of Belgrade’s Secretary of Culture. WORD FROM THE EDITOR “Tradition is not preserving the ashes, tradition is keeping the flame.” Read somewhere, sometime, and kept in the memory… Whenever when I go with my daughters to the Belgrade Fortress and Kalemegdan, I tell them legends about the City (because there are still no legends about the park, thanks God). On one occasion, one of them, while explaining me where she had forgotten her gloves which we went there looking for, suddenly said: “… it’s there, by that Manor…”?! I was amazed the fact that with her inward eye she saw the City that was no longer there.

  • Activities in Belgrade
    Activities in Belgrade Sights to see 1. Belgrade Fortress (Kalemegdan Park) The number one must-see location in the city. Some 115 battles have been fought over impressive Kalemegdan. Over the centuries, the citadel has been destroyed more than 40 times. The building of the fortification began in Celtic times, which the Romans extended onto the flood plains during their settlement of 'Singidunum', Belgrade's Roman name. Much of what stands today is the product of 18th-century Austro-Hungarian and TurKish reconstructions. The fort's bloody history, discernible despite today's plethora of jolly cafes and funfairs, only maKes Kalemegdan all the more fascinating. Entering from Knez Mihailova, go through the 18th- century Karadjordje Gate to reach the Upper Town (Gornji grad) of the fortress. From the Stambol Gate (1750), you will reach the Military Museum and the 27.5 metre high ClocK Tower. Further along, you will see a small bricK octagon; this is the 1784 Ali Pasha's Turbeh (tomb), one of Belgrade's few well- preserved Islamic monuments. The Roman Well is nearby, a mysterious 60m deep hole (more a cistern than a well) of dubious origin and shrouded in horrifying legends; apparently the well even managed to creep out a visiting Alfred HitchcocK! Looming beside it is the Victor Monument, a symbol of Belgrade erected in 1928 to commemorate Serbia’s victories over the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian Empires during the BalKan Wars and WWI. This 14 metre high monument is the city’s most recognisable landmarK and famous Belgrade attraction. The plateau around the monument is always crowded with tourists and Belgrade natives, partly because of the breath-taKing view over the confluence of the two rivers that flow through Belgrade, and the beauty of this landmarK as part of the historic Belgrade Fortress.

Gamzigrad-Felix Romuliana UNESCO Heritage In the vicinity of the Gamzigrad spa, in the east of Serbia, there are ruins of the Roman complex called Felix Romuliana, one of the most important late Roman sites in Europe. The first explorers believed the ancient ruins had been a Roman military camp, because of their size and numerous towers. However, systematic archeological excavations since 1953 revealed that it had, in fact, been an imperial palace. It was a project of one of the tetrarchs, Galerius, the adopted son and son-in-law of the great Diocletianus. Galerius started construction works in 289, after a victory over the Persians that brought him admiration and glory, to mark the place of his birth. It was therefore given the name Felix Romuliana in memory of his Queen mother Romula, a priestess of a pagan cult.
