Kingdom of Serbia
The
Kingdom of Serbia
, often rendered
Servia
in English at the time of its existence, was created when Prince
Milan Obrenovic
, ruler of the Principality of Serbia, was crowned king in 1882. The
Principality of Serbia
was ruled by the
Obrenovic dynasty
from 1817 onwards (at times replaced by the
Karadordevic dynasty
). The Principality,
suzerain
to the
Porte
, had expelled all
Ottoman
troops by 1867, de facto securing its independence. The
Congress of Berlin
in 1878 recognized the formal independence of the
Principality of Serbia
.
