Serbian culture

Serbian culture

 refers to the culture of Serbia and of ethnic Serbs.

Serbian culture starts with that of the South Slavic peoples that lived in theBalkans. 

Early on, Serbs may have been influenced by the Paleo-Balkan peoples. 

The Byzantine Empire had a great influence on the culture; Serbs were initially 

governing the Byzantine frontiers in the name of the emperor and were later 

through their sworn alliance given independence, baptized by Greek missionaries 

and adopted the Cyrillic script. The Serbian Orthodox Church gained autocephaly 

fromConstantinople in 1219. The Republic of Venice influenced the maritime 

regions in the Middle Ages. The Ottoman Empire conquered Serbia in 1459 and 

placed the country under a state of occupation which lasted for four centuries, the 

consequences of which suppressed Serbian culture but also greatly influenced 

Serbian Art. Serbian culture flourished from 1718 in regions that were under the 

control of the Habsburg Monarchy.

Following Serbia's autonomy after the Serbian revolution and eventual 

independence, the culture of Serbia was restrengthened within its people.
