Description: In Russian. Momirovic D. Brief history and geography of Serbia. With a map. (lost). Dmitry Momirovich dedicates with reverence to His Majesty the Sovereign Emperor Nicholas the First. St. Petersburg, 1839. The book is accompanied by a map of Serbia, compiled by Dmitry Momirovic, which also shows the territories of Bosnia, Herzegovina, Montenegro and parts of modern Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Slavia, Croatia. For 350 years Serbian lands were ruled by the Ottoman Empire. As a result of the First Serbian uprising (1804-1813), the Serbian Principality was formed. But in 1813 the uprising was crushed. The second Serbian uprising, which began in 1815, was more successful, and fifteen years later, the Sultan, also due to Russian military operations, was forced in 1830 to officially recognize Miloš Obrenović as the ruler of Serbia. These events aroused in Europe and in Russia an interest in the Serbian lands and the Serbian people. This edition opens a brief excursion into Serbian history, up to 1833, followed by a detailed geographical description of the country: mountains, rivers, valleys, cities, small settlements, etc. The edition is rare.
