@ duhvs nisi trebao da prevodiš
neki znaju da koriste konverter ćirilica latinica i obratno


Ех....знам да то постоји само нисам сигуран да знају да га користе.

Испада да не знају ни хрватску ћирилицу да користе па како онда мислиш да познају српску ?

Овако да им учуним услугу па да им преведем а и знаша како се лепо осећам када знам да само на овом случају знам да говорим и да пишем на четири језика и то :

1. Српска ћирилица
2. Хрватска ћирилица
3. Српска латиница
4. Хрватска латиница

У бре !!!

Који ти то језик и писопис користиш ?

Мора да је нека тежа зезачина са Хрватског пошто то на Српском нема.

пс. мада ми оно "неодгојени" говори све.....разумем ја да је тежак и претежак живот покатоличеном Србину.....

ako se patis sa zagrebom, okolina je bila naseljena , jos od kamenog doba, sudeci po arheoloskim nalazima.iliri, kelti, goti, rimljani, su imali naselja u okolini. rimska andautonia (danasnje scitarjevo ), je bilo rimsko naselje najblize poziciji danasnjeg zagreba, negde u prvom veku nove ere.
naselje koje ce se zvati zagreb, se razvilo na levoj obali potoka cirkvenika ili medvescaka, i protezalo se od danasnjeg krvavog mosta , parka ribnjaka , podrucje katedrale, u 10 ili 11 veku.vlasi su napravili naselje "vicus latinorum" (vlaska ves, danasnja vlaska ulica), negde u isto vreme
 
Na stranu ove gluposti koje su napisane, ima li nekoga ko zna tačan odgovor?

The Hungarian–Byzantine wars were fought in several waves during
the twelfth century, and in almost all of them the Serbs joined the
emperor’s enemies. During the first war (1127–9), mostly waged around
Belgrade and Branicˇevo and on the Hungarian side of the Danube, the
Serbs conquered and burned the city of Ras, which had been under
Byzantine rule.
During this period, especially in the eyes of westerners, the Serbs are
associated with Ras, whose earlier history is unclear. The bishopric was founded by Bulgarian Emperor Peter, and under Byzantine rule it was
part of the Ohrid archbishopric (1020). For a while the town was the
seat of the Ras catepanate, a Byzantine administrative unit. The town of
Ras and the territory of its bishopric was the first larger administrativeunit seized by the Serbs from Byzantium. Serb rulers made it their seat,
which is why Latin texts began to refer to them as the Rasciani and their
state as Rascia. The Hungarians, and through them the Germans, used
this name up until the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. As with other
church seats, the name of the town of Ras was passed on to the region
through the bishopric. As with Srem (derived from Sirmium), Branicˇevo,
and Prizren, the name of the land ruled by the Serb grand zˇupans became
Ras or Rasˇka land. This name appeared in their title along with the
name Serbian land, and it was also used by Latin authors, while
the Byzantines continued using the name Serbia.

Ovo je iz LJDP'a u vreme Bodina.

U to vrijeme preminu kraljica i Mihala prihvati kraljevstvo. On je imao sedam sinova èija su imena ova: Vladimir, Prijaslav, Sergije, Derija, Gavril, Miroslav i Bodin. Buduæi da je imao ovih sedam sinova, pošto preuze kraljevstvo, ne htjede održati zakletvu koju je bio dao svom bratu Radoslavu, nego mu oduzme županiju Zete i dade je svom sinu Vladimiru. U to vrijeme umrije žena kralja Mihale pa dovede drugu ženu, Grkinju, carevu roðaku, i sa njom rodi èetiri sina, èija su imena ova: prvi Dobroslav, drugi Petrislav, treci Niæifor, èetvrti Teodor. Od Dobroslava, od Niæifora i od Teodora nije ostalo potomstva, samo se od Petrislava rodi Bodin koji je vladao èitavom kraljevinom. Vladimir i njegova braæa krenu u Rašku i zauzmu je, i dade je na upravu sinu Petrislavu.

Ali nije prvenstveno bila ni geografski istih razmera kao u XII veku gde je centralizovana.

Podrucje Užica bilo je izvan pravca kretanja velike seobe naroda kada su
mnogobrojna varvarska plemena preplavila Balkansko poluostvo. Tu gde je ispod velikih
tumula u Pilatovicima, Ražani, Krivoj Reci posvedocen život Autarijata i Dardanaca i gde je,
izmedu jakog rudarskog i gradskog centra kolonije Domavije (Srebrnice) i rudarskog naselja
municipija Malvezacija kod Požege, živelo starosedelacko i dobirm delom romanizovano
stanovništvo Rimskog Carstva, do danas nije otkriven nijedan trag karakteristicnog humskog,
istocnogotskog, langobardskog ili avarskog materijala.
Iz razdoblja kasne antike potice nekoliko nalaza iz šire okoline Užica. Na lokalitetu
Gradini u selu Markovici, južno od Cacka, pronaden je srebrni relikvijar sa natpisom na
latinskom jeziku u kome se pominju apostoli sveti Petar, sveti Pavle i sveti Jovan. Svi ostali
ranovizantijski nalazi uglavnom su otkriveni južnije, na podrucju oko Prijepolja. To su
nekropole u selu Radoinji, Kolovratu, i grobnica u Divcima. Znacajan je latinski natpis u
stihu episkopa Stefana, pronaden na groblju u selu Izbicnju kod Prijepolja. U natpisu se
pominje podizanje više gradevina u vreme vizantijskog cara Justinijana (527-565). Iz istog je
perioda i natpis nepoznatog pontifeksa koji je naden u selu Drenovi kod Prijepolja. Nije
poznato za koji gradski ili crkveni centar treba vezati ove natpise. U selu Cadinju kod
Prijepolja sacuvani ostaci antickog rudarenja i prerade srebrne rude pokazuje da je rudno
bogatstvo ovoga kraja uslovilo povecanu graditeljsku delatnost u vreme Justinijana kada je
podignuto osam novih tvrdava u Dardaniji, a obnovljena šezdeset i jedna. Medu ovim
mnogoborjnim utvrdenjima jedna da se neko može povezati sa odredenim mestom. Naziv
jedne od obnovljenih tvrdava, Kapomalva, povezuje delove imena dva municipija koji se
pominju u natpisima pronadenim oko Užica, Malvezacija kod Požege, i nepoznatog
municipija SAR....., sa jednog antickog spomenika pronadenog u Užicu.
O povremenim prodorima Slovena na vizantijsku teritoriju od VI veka i sve dužim i
trajnijim prilivima slovenskog stanovništva tokom sledecih vekova zna se, uglavnom, iz
istorijskih izvora, jer su ostaci slovenske materijalne kulture na citavom Balkanskom
poluostrvu u prvim vekovima naseljavanja slabo poznati i nedovoljno istraženi. Stalni sukobi
Bugara, a povremeno i Ugara, sa Vizantijom za prevlast na Balkanu u IX i X veku, koji su se
odigravali i na treritoriji naseljenoj Srbima, otežavali su stvaranje i usporavali razvoj cvršcih
oblika vlasti i državnih organizacija. Prema podacima u spisu lika vlasti i državnih
organizacija. Prema podacima u spisu “O narodima” vizantijskog cara i pisca Konstantina
VII Porfirogenita (913-959), kod Srba su vladali arhonti na širokom prostoru koji pocetkom
IX veka obuhvata veliki deo Dalmacije u antickom smislu, do reke Save na severu i reke Ibra
na istoku. Potcinjeni su Vizantiji i primili su hrišcanstvo izmedu 867. i 874. g, kako je
ustanovljeno prema prvom hrišcanskom imenu jednog srpskog vladara, kneza Petra.
Sredinom IX veka Srbi uspevaju da se odbrane od napada Bugara, ali jedan vek kasnije 924.
godine Srbija potpada pod bugarsku vlast. Posle smrti bugarskog cara Simeona 927. godine
zapustelu Srbiju obnovio je srpski arhont Caslav uz pomoc vizantijskog cara. Medu
malobrojnim naseljenim gradovima u tadašnjoj Srbiji Konstantin VII Porfirogenit pominje
Medurecje i Dresneik. Pretpostavljalo se da prvi grad treba tražiti na sastavu reke Moravice,
Skrapeža i Detinje, gde je u blizini Požege u selu Visibabi postojao anticki municipijum
Malvezacij. Spomenici Malvezacija pokazuju da je procvat ovog rudarskog naselja bio u II i
III veku, a vec posle toga život u njemu zamire. Druga pretpostavljena identifikacija
 
Medurecja sa gradom na stavama Pive i Tare danas je odbacena jer je ustanovljeno da je grad
Soko podigao herceg Stefan Vikcic Kosaca. Medutim, nedaleko od Požege, u kompleksu
manastira Arilja na stavama dveju reka, Rzava i Moravice, u toku arheoloških istraživanja
otkriveni su zidovi starijih gradevina koje se približno mogu opredeliti u period VI-VII veka.
Iako nema odlucujucih arheoloških dokaza, ne može se iskljuciti pretpostavka da se upravo
tu, uz crkveni centar, moglo formirati rano srednjovekovno srpsko naselje Medurecje. Još
jedna grad koji pominje Konstantin VII Porfirogenit povezivan je sa užckim kraje. To je
Dresneik. Na levoj obali Velikog Rzava, jugoistocno od Užica nalazi se selo Drežnik. U selu
se nalazi velika neispitana gradina na kojoj su se pre pedesetak godina videle ruševine zidina,
a sada su sacuvani jedva vidljivi ostaci. Sa obe gradine za sada potice samo jedna kruc od
kovnaog gvožda, koji se, medutim, ne može datovati pre XIV-XV veka. Neka naselja koja u
Srbiji i Bosni pominje vizantijski car mogla su da se ustanove, pa je utvrdeno da su granice
države arhonta Caslava na severu obuhvatale podrucje oko Tuzle, a na istoku je granica bila
oko Rasa, u oblasti današnjeg Novog Pazara. Prirodna severoistocna granica pratila je racna
razvoda grebenima Golije, Cemernog, Jelice, Maljena i Medvednika, preko Sokolske planine
do Drine i Save. Time je i podrucje oko Užica ukljuceno u teritoriju Srbije kakava je bila
sredinom H veka.
Koliko su oskudni podaci o granicama tadašnje Srbije, toliko je malo poznato kakav
je bio nacin života, organizacija vlasti i privreda stanovništva u prvim vekovima od
doseljenja do H veka. Istraživana slovenska naselja u drugim krajevima Srbije pokazuju da je
privredna osnova bila pretežno zemljoradnja, a manje stocarstvo. Doline i plodna polja
pogodna za zemljoradnju zposeli su i trajno naselili Sloveni, odnosno Srbi. Romanizovano
starosedelacko stanovništvo povuklo se u planinska podrucja. Vlasi, stocari, slavizirani su
tokom srednjeg veka u procesu koji je završen do kraja XIV veka. Na njihovoj osnovi
obrazovan je društveni sloj stocara, vlaha, pravno i društveno jasno definisan, koji se održao i
narocito ojacao u užickom kraju pod turskom vlašcu. Neslovenska toponimija u okolini Užica
pruža istu sliku. Tu su se sacuvali nazivi planinskih sela i planina u neposrednoj okolini, kao
što su Šengolj,Paramun, Megara, Murtenica, Lopaš, Žigale, Buar, Peule, Konder, Loret,
Mackat, Cigota, Mucanj.
Nešto više o državi kojom je vladao Caslav i njenim odnosima sa severnim susedima
Ugrima saznaje se iz Letopisa popa Dukljanina, koji je nastao u drugoj polovini XII veka.
Govoreci o zbivanjima u X veku, Dukljanin navodi da je u Bosnu provalio ugarski velikaš
Kiz. Njemu se Caslav suprostavio kraj reke u županiji Drini. U sukobu, koji se završio
Caslavljevom pobedom, istako se Tihomil ubivši Kiza. Caslav ga je nagradio za zasluge.
Oženio ga je kcerkom raškog bana i dodelio mu županiju Drinu. To je jedini do sada poznati
pomen županije Drine u izvorima. Medutim, kao oblast Drina se pominje bezbroj puta u
dokumentima iz dubrovackog arhiva, uglavnom u vezi sa mestima koja se nalaze u gornjem
toku reke Drine, oko Foce i Goražda. Celnik Dimitrije, sahranjen u manastiru Banji kod
Priboja 1349. godine, držao je Drinu, Dabar, Rudine i Gacko, oblasti koje se od bileckih
Rudina, preko Dabarskog i Gatckog polja prirodno nadovezuje na stave Pive i Tare, odakle
nastaje reka Drina. Pored pomena županije Drine, Dukljanin navodi raškog bana kao
podredenog Caslavu. Iz toga se može zakljuciti da je lokalna uprava bila u rukama bana,
odnosno župana. Tihomil je upravljao županijom Drinom, a njegov tast, raški ban, cije je ime
ostalo nepoznato, imao je vlast u Raškoj. Tu se prvi put u izvorima pominje Raška kao
posebna oblast u Srbiji.
Posle kratkotrajne obnove vizantijske vlasti u drugoj polovini H veka, kada je severna
granica carstva opet bila na Dunavu, izbio je 976. godine u Makedoniji ustanak komitopula i
izneo kao prodornog i energicnog vojskovodu Samuela, sina komesa Nikole, koji se ubrzo
 
proglasio za cara. Nizom uspešnih pohoda osvojio je velike delove Balkanskog poluostrva.
Posle sukova sa dukljanskim knezom Jovanom Vladimirom, Samuelo napada Dalmaciju i u
povratku pustoši Srbiju. Kratki period Samuilove premoci na Balkanu ostavio je traga u
širenju kulta sv. Ahilija, sveca kojeg je on neobicno poštovao. O tome svedoce toponimi
vezani za kult sv. Ahilija na raznim stranama Jugoslavije (Arhiljevica u Makedoniji, Arilje u
Srbiji, Arilje u Nevesinju). U kompleksu manastira Arilja, jugoistocno od Užica,
dosadašnjim istraživanjima nije ustanovljen nikakav trag graditeljske delatnosti ni materijalne
kulture iz vremena cara Samuila.

Samuilova kratkotrajna vladavina ostavila je obnovljenoj i osnaženoj Vizantiji cara
Vasilija II (976-1025) u naslede i promenjenu crkvenu organizaciju, autokefalnu ohridsku
petrijašiju. Uvodeci nove mere u upravni sistem države, vizantski car Vasilije II nije ukinuo
ohridsku patrijašiju. Kršeci osnovna nacela o ustrojstvu crkve, zadržao ju je, kao samostalnu
arhiepiskopiju cijeg poglavara postavlja car. Novim temackim uredenjem i novim crkvenom
organizacijom bile su obuhvacene i srpske zemlje. Poveljama koje je izdao 1019, 1020. i pre
1025.godine o Ohridskoj arhiepiskopiji car Vasilije II odredio je broj podložnih episkopija i
njihova prava. Nova ohridska arhiepiskopija imala je 31 episkopiju sa odredenim brojem
klirika i meropaha. Šest episkopija je obuhvatalo znatan doe srpskih zemalja: episkopije sa
sedištem u Nišu, Branicevu, Beogradu, Prizrenu i Lipljanu. U beogradskoj episkopiji
pomenuta su sledeca mesta: Beograd, Omcon, Gradac, Glaventin i Beloj Crkvi. Na osnovu
fonetskih slicnosti Omcon je indetifikovan kao Užice. Medutim, na podrucju užickog grada i
u široj okolini do sada nisu otkriveni nikakvi nalazi koji bi mogli da se vežu za prvu polovinu
XI veka. Znacenje imena Užica u srpskom jeziku potpuno odgovara odlikama mesta na kome
se grad razvio. Uska klisura reke Detinje, okružena strmim visovina sa omanjom recnom
dolinom, veoma je nepodesna za vece naselje, tako da se Užice razvijalo i širilo na
ruševinama starijih gradevina, od podgrada ispod tvrdave ka današnjem opsegu grada,
postepeno osvajajuci kose strane okolnih uzvišenja. Prilikom mnogobrojnih savremenih
gradevimskih radova u samom gradu nisu otkriveni tragovi nekog starijeg naselja, niti neke crkvene gradevine.
 
Kako naziv Omcon-Užice ni glasovno nisu bliski, treba ovo pitanje
smatrati i dalje otvorenim.
O prilikama i zbivanjima u Srbiji sredinom XII veka pisao je vizantijski hronicar i
istoricar Jovan Kinam: Vizantijski car Manojlo I Komnin (1143-180) prodro je u Srbiju
1149. godine da bi kaznio srpskog župana koji se pridružio savezu nekoliko evropskih
vladara protiv Vizantije. Razorena je tvrdava Ras i neka druga utvrdena u oblasti nazvanoj
Nikava, zatim tvrdava Galic, a opustošena je i popaljena sva srpska zemljz. Sledece, 1150.
godine, drugi pohod cara Manojla I Komnina na Srbiju okoncan je porazom zajednicke
srpske i ugarske vojske na reci Tari. U novije vreme izneto je mišljenje po kome se
odlucujuca bitka nije odigrala na reci Tari, sastavnici Drine, vec na istoimenoj recici u okolini
Valjeva, pa bi se tu, oko Valjeva, nalazila i severna granica srpske države velikog župana
Uroša II, koji je tada bio na vlasti. Ovome tumacenju suprostavljaju se raniji podaci o
teritoriji srpske države koji se teško mogu vezivati za oblasti severno od Zapadne Morave i
Detinje. Pritisak Ugarske sa severa, koja pored Hrvatske vec u prvoj polovini XII veka
uspeva da potcini Bosnu, prisiljavao je Vizantiju na energicne mere odbrane severnih
podrucja i brze vojne akcije koje dugo nisu dopuštale da se granice srpske države pomere ka
severu. Iz kratkog izlaganja Jovana Kinama saznaje se da je car Manojlo Komnin vojsku
sakupio kod Niša. Potom je da bi sprecio dolazak ugarskih ceta Srbima u pomoc, prešao sa
vojskom preko oblasti Lugomir iduci ka Savi, blizu Save je zaokrenuo ka Drini, na granici
prema Bosni. U daljem toku pohoda izbio je sukob prethodnice vizantijske vojske sa manjim
ugarskim odredom. Car je morao biti u blizini, jer je, saznavši za to, poslao u pomoc
protosevasta Jovana. Vizantinci su sterali Ugre u “tok reke Strimona” i gonili ih dalje sve do
reke Tare. Carev logor je bio na polovini puta koji vodi ka Secenici. Tu je car saznao od
zarobljenika gde se nalazi veliki župan i krenuo je ka reci Tari na kojoj se potom odigrala
odlucujuca bitka. Opis mesta bitke pokazuje da se radi o velikoj reci koja se prelazi mostom,
gde je okolina bila zarasla u cestar i pokrivena debelim nanosima snega. Mala recica Tara
kod Valjeva teško bi mogla da odgovara mestu ove bitke.
Kako i Kinamovo izlaganje nalaže, i Strimon i Secenicu treba tražiti na prostoru od
Drine prema Tari. Samo mesto sukoba izmedu srpsko-ugarske i vizantijske vojske bliže je
planini Tari nego današnjoj reci Tari. Na tome podrucju živeli su Autarijati, jedno od
najvecih ilirskih plemena, koje pominje Strabon. Oba naziva, i planine i reke Tare, starija su
od imena ilirskog plemena jer se ono po njima naziva Autarijatima. Recica Derventa, koja
izvire na planini Tari i uliva se u Drinu kod sela Rastišta, današnje ime dobila je u turskom
periodu, od turske reci derbent (klanac), a njeno staro ime nije poznato. Medutim, prema
opisu bitke na Tari, brza i skoro neprelazna planinska reka Tara, sastavnica Drine, iako je
dosta daleko prema jugozapadu, najverovatnije je bila Kinamova Tara. Na stavama Pive i
Tare nalazi se Šcepan-Polje, a i ispod planine Vukuša u selu Humu prema reci Tari postoji
manje proširenje recne doline. Na oba ova mesta mogoa je da se odigra jedan srednjovekovni
okršaj dve nevelike vojske. Ishod bitke na Tari pokazao je da su Srbija i Ugarska i udruženih
snaga bile slabe da se suprostave Vizantiji.
 
Treba i pomenuti da je u vreme Nemanje vladao veliki metež u Raškoj i borba za vlast pa je i on morao više puta bežati iz nje.
Ali ako je gledamo kao oformljenu državu onda tek za vreme njega ili nešto malo pre.
 
Rascia - The Nucleus of the Medieval Serbian State
Source: The Serbian Questions in The Balkans, University of Belgrade, publisher - Faculty of Geography, Belgrade 1995.
The medieval Serbian State, which was gradually being formed on the territory of the Byzantine Empire, was most often designated with two terms - "Serbia and Rascia" (Rashka). The first term is completely clear. It is of ethnic origin and it designated lands settled by the Serbs on the Balkan Peninsula, i.e. the State of the Nemanyich and then successors to the Serbian throne. It has survived until our days. The other term has been mysterious for a long time. It is a regional name of one pare of the Serbian lands, which gradually became the sign for the entire State. Why? This paper represents an attempt to explain this problem.
Different suppositions have been stated in the literature so far about the possible origin of the term "Rashka". Some scientists supposed that the town of Ras transmitted its name to the surroundings.[1] The others, however, attributed a crucial role to the river Raska, which flows through the region of the today's town of Novi Pazar and empties into the Ibar river. The followers of this interpretation found analogies on the Balkan areas (Bosnia, Zeta), and there is also such an opinion recorded way back in the Middle Ages.[2] However, it was noticed, with a reason, that the river Raska is a small river, which did not have a significant role in the history of the Serbs, certainly not that one as the river Bosnia had.[3] A certain role in forming a notion "Rashka" could be attributed to the church organisation of the country, to Rascian bishopric, but only within a definite chronological framework.
In order to define a scientific problem clearly, and to solve it, it is necessary to find the answer to the following question: When did the word "Rashka" (Rassa, Rascia) appear in historical sources for the first time? The analysis of the available historical sources, and the Byzantine ones are the oldest, shows that there was not such a term for the State of Serbian Zhupans <princes> until the middle of the 12th century. This is based on the analysis of the texts of Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus (the 10th century)[4], John Scylitzes (the 11th century)[5], Anne Comnene (the 12th century),[6] John Cinnamus and Nicetas Choniaces (the 12th century)[7], i.e. of the works of the Byzantine rhetoricians (Theodore Prodromus and others).[8] All of them mention "Serbia" in their works many times. For example, the fortress of Ras was mentioned by the writers of the 12th century. Constantine Porphyrogenitus connects the term "Rassa" with the border area between Serbia and Bulgaria in the 9th century.[9] The so-called "raški" (Rascian) Zhupan Vukan, who was at war with Byzantium at the end of the 11th century and right at the beginning of the 12th century, calls his State Serbia.[10]
The same picture is obtained from the diplomatic data, Greek and Latin. Here, the most important is the Charter of the Byzantine Emperor Basil II (1020) where, among others, Rascian bishopric is mentioned as well.[11] Serbian Zhupans are the rulers of "Serbia" as it was written in the letter by Emperor Isaac II Angelus to the Hungarian King Bela III, as well as in the Charter by the same Emperor given to the citizens of Dubrovnik in 1192.[12] Finally, the data recorded in the letter by a famous Greek writer, the Ohrid Archbishop Demetrius Chomatianus, which he sent in 1220 to Sava, the Archbishop of Serbia, speaks for itself. It explicitly says that "Serbia has its bishop in Ras."[13]
This survey of Byzantine sources undoubtedly leads to the conclusion that during the time when Ras was under Byzantine rule there was not a term "Rashka" meaning "Serbian State". Nor could it be there because, for the Byzantine Empire, Ras was only an important administrative and church centre in the Serbian lands.
The analysis of papal charters from the 11th and 12th centuries also shows that the term "Rascia" does not exist in the sources. The charter of Pope Callistus II, 1119-1124, which was issued for the Church of Bar, is especially indicative here. Rascia is not mentioned, only "Bishopric of Serbia" is mentioned.[14] The writer of the so-called Antivary Annals (Priest of Dioclea) often mentions Rascia (Rassa) and people of Rascia in his text, but he mentions "Serbia" among the suffragans of the Archbishop of Bar. The text was written t the earliest towards the end of the 12th century, but then the circumstances were already changed in their essence.
The turning point is the time of Stephen Nemanya. During his time the Serbs finally conquered the Rascian region. It was recorded in the sources that Stephen Nemanya, celebrating the victory over his enemies, built the monastery of St. George "in the very centre of Ras" (today Djurdjevi Stupovi by the town of Novi Pazar). In the systematic archaeological research of this monastery complex a part of the founder's inscription was discovered with the engraved year of the end of the construction: 1170-1171.[15] At that time Ras became the centre of the Serbian State and only then the conditions were made for the old name to appeal in its new role. The oldest data reliably dated in this respect came down from Kotor in 1186. At that time the regulations were proclaimed in that town "...at the rime of the governor (ruler) of ours, Nemanya, Zhupan of Rascia."[16] In addition, the other sources follow. The data are also found in foreign sources. I would, for example, mention Hungarian Chronicle (Gesta Hungarorum), which was written during the time of King Bela III (1172-1196), the contemporary, later the ally of Stephen Nemanya. Here, "terra Racy" (Rascian land) is mentioned.[17] Western European writers use both terms for the State of Stephen Nemanya - Serbia and Rascia. For the Passau bishop Dietpold, who visited Niš in 1189, Nemanya is the ruler of Serbia,[18] while in the work of Ansbert he is "Grand Zhupan of Serbia and Rascia." This parallelism of terms lasts during the Middle Ages, it sometimes disappears giving the place only to one term.
In other words, only from the time of Stephen Nemanya the term "Rashka" becomes the signification for the Serbian State - a new political and areal whole in South-eastern Europe. And to use the viewpoints of Nemanya himself, that was the state which united the territories from Niš to Kotor (Cattaro). Towards the end of 1188, through his representative ac the Court of the German Emperor Friedrich I Barbarossa, Stephen Nemanya sent the message that he intended to make Niš the centre of his state ("caput regni"). On the other hand, it is known that the Serbian ruler had his Court in Cattaro.[21] The borders of the Serbian State were being changed with time. The term "Rashka" followed those changes.
"The Kingdom of Rashka" appears many times in the sources of the pre-Turkish period, the State of the Nemanyich is mainly called so in Europe. Evidence for this statement is found in the letters of the European rulers, in the practice of the king's offices, in the descriptions of the Serbian lands, and in the travels and texts of diplomats. Rascia is mentioned in the texts in Hungary, Germany, Italy, France, the Czech lands, and so on. Let a great poet Dante be a witness of this as well. In the Divine Comedy of his he also included the notion: "il regno di Rassa".[22] Thus "the Rascian Court" and "the Rascian Kingdom" became the terms of the medieval European, civilisation. When the Bosnian Ban Tvrtko I was crowned King of the "Serbs and Bosnia" in the Monastery of Mileševa in 1377, he was simply called the "King of Rascia" and his State the "Rascian Kingdom".[23] Prince Lazar is for Hungary the "Prince of the Kingdom of Rascia", and his son, Stephen Lazarević (1389-1427) - the "Despot of Rascia" or the Despot of "the Kingdom of Rascia".[24] The title of despot, the highest after the emperor's on the Byzantine Court, Stephen Lazarević acquired during his visit: to Constantinople at the beginning of the 15th century.[25] In one of the documents George Stracimirović Balšić was called the "Governor of Zeta in the Kingdom of Rascia".[26] The German Emperor and the Czech King Charles IV of Luxembourg, the famous founder of the University in Prague, at one rime wrote "to the Rascian King, to dear brother" Stephen Dushan with whom he was connected by the common language.[27] Sometimes, in foreign sources, even the Head of the Serbian Orthodox Church was simply signified as the "Patriarch of Rascia", which, naturally, essentially differed from his official title.[28]

The Rascian centre of the Serbian state had obviously some important features by which it was differentiated from the others in Serbia, and only in that way it was possible for a regional name to get such an important role. With this we get to the way of thinking of the medieval people. We can see how they understand the formation of a state and the origin of authority among people. I have been teaching History of Europe for more than thirty years and doing research on the history of old Ras for more than twenty years. Having this experience, I feel free to attract the attention to the importance of the Christian foundations of the Serbian Monarchy. If the problem of the term "Rashka" is treated in this way, two faces are particularly important: 1. The antiquity and reputation of the Rascian bishopric and 2. The Throne of Stephen Nemanya in Ras.
M. Dinić supposed long ago that in the church organisation of the country one should look for the solution of the mysterious name "Rashka".[29] He did not go beyond this. Today we have new arguments which make it possible to ponder, with more confidence, into the oldest history of this term.
Serbian tradition, recorded late, perseveringly kept the data about the remarkable ancientness of the Rascian Bishopric Temple. In more recent Genealogies and Annals the news was recorded that the Church of the Apostles St. Peter and St. Paul (today St. Peter's Church by the town of Novi Pazar) was built by St. Paul's disciple, Titus.[30] At one time this news was considered exaggeration by I. Ruvarac.[31] However, if it could not be literally accepted, it is obvious that the Church or the Apostles St. Peter and St. Paul was for centuries considered a very old cult place. This is confirmed, in a way, by the recent multidisciplinary research of the central part of old Ras, which is being systematically carried out for a long time. Archaeological excavations have revealed a lot of new data. The oldest Christian complex was found in the area of today s Spa of Novi Pazar and St. Peter's Church. Two Christian objects were found in the Spa of Novi Pazar: An antique temple from the 3rd century, which was later changed into the Christian church. Then a basilica was built on the same site in the 6th century, and it had sintronos in the apse, the characteristics of a bishopric temple.[32] On the other hand, St. Peter's Church itself keeps a long history in its foundations. It seems that the oldest Christian object on that site was martyrium, which was probably built at the end of the 4th century. Today's baptistery in the church is not antique, but it originates from the time of the reconstruction of the temple in the 9th century. The church had already been in the ruins when the baptistery was built in.[33]
For the history of Rascian bishopric, and thus for this topic, it is a very significant fact that from a number of temples already found, just the Church of the Apostles St. Peter and St. Paul ( St. Peter's Church) was reconstructed in the Middle Ages and adapted to the needs of the bishopric cathedral. Written historical sources undoubtedly state that in the Middle Ages there was the throne of Rascian bishops there.[34] Therefore, today's approximately small St. Peter's Church is actually a temple of long Christian traditions. This has always brought a special reputation to a church. The Serbian Orthodox Church, in my opinion, has actually saved the name of Ras until our days. In addition to this, one should have in mind that Rascian bishopric was the main religious centre of the country until the foundation of the Serbian Autocephalous Church at the time of St. Sava (1219). Antique traditions were renovated by Byzantium and then taken over by the Serbs.
The other element of my survey deals with State, Dynasty. It deals with the throne of Stephen Nemanya in the Church of the Apostles St. Peter and St. Paul in Ras. The history of the throne in Europe and in our country, from Scotland and England to Russia and Ras, has been already dealt with elsewhere.[35] The throne everywhere, and with us as well, gradually becomes a symbol of the State, a feature of the supreme power. It symbolically, as well as the crown, represents the entirety of the State and its continuity. This is the element of transpersonal power, it does not belong to the individual but to the dynasty, i.e. to the community. That is why in the Middle Ages people used to say that lands and towns belonged to the Throne (or to the Crown), that various services, obligations, loyalty, etc. were owed to the Throne. So was in Serbia, too. This opinion was recorded in a document from the time of King Stephen Uroš I (1253). It was written: "Towns and fortresses belong to the Rascian Throne."[36] I would like to mention that there were various thrones in Europe in the Middle Ages, such as: stationary thrones, mobile thrones that follow the ruler, thrones in temples or courts, etc. However, the "State throne" is gradually distinguished in accordance with the conditions in each country. This term also existed in Serbia. The data was recorded in the Annals of Peć.[37] That Rascian throne had such meaning at the time of the first Nemanyich was explicitly cited by Patriarch John of Peć in his letter to Pope Clement VIII in 1597. St. Peter's Church by Novi Pazar was referred to as the first crowning place of the Serbian rulers, before the Monastery of Ziča and Peć Patriarchate.[38]
The reliable facts on Nemanya's Throne in Rascia were left by his sons: Stephen the First-Crowned Serbian King (1196-1228) and St. Sava in the description of the abdication of Stephen Nemanya in 1196.[39] Later, this was also handed down by the writers Domentian and, particularly precisely, by Theodosius, the monk of the Monastery of Chilandarion in Mount Athos.[40]
If this topographical data - the position of the Throne in St. Peter's Church - is fitted in the ruler's ideology of that time, founded on the Christian view that the ruler gets his power from God, or "Dei gratia" how it used to be said at that rime, it is entirely clear that only under the auspices of the old and recognised church centre in Ras the Serbian State could provide the way to the community of the Christian nations of Europe. The opinion that Serbia, surrounded by the Byzantine Empire and Hungarian Kingdom, actually belongs to the circle of the countries of the world of that time was clearly pointed out by Stephen Nemanya himself in the Charter for the Monastery of Chilandarion.[41]
The throne function of the Rascian Bishopric Temple meant that there was also the "seat" there, as it was explicitly seated by Stephen the First-Crowned Serbian King. There, he received the power from his father. In his well known work Biography of St. Simeon, he wrote that in the 12th century the seat of Serbia was next to St. Peter's Church in Ras.[42] The ruler, thus, designated the seat of the State. What these seats generally looked like in Europe and here during the formation of a State is another question, which is, unfortunately, neglected with us. "The Houses of the Archzhupan" in Ras were mentioned in 1149.[43] On some occasions, next to the stationary seat of the Head of the Church there was usually a temporary residence of the King, who was travelling together with the Court about the country; the custom known in Serbia and in other European countries for quite a long time. This joining of the ruler's and church seat, comparatively looking, is a conception of the Byzantine origin.[44]
Finally, it is possible to draw a conclusion that the most important institutions of the medieval Serbian State were founded in the Rascian region during the period of the first Nemanyich. The foundations of the Rascian Kingdom are there. The Kingdom which Europe accepted as its equal. The path toward Dante was open.

Kviz-teme me ne privlače:

Slaven777: Kada je prvo pominjanje Raške u istoriji, kao i kada u kontekstu državne teritorije/vladarske titule?
...
Na stranu ove gluposti koje su napisane, ima li nekoga ko zna tačan odgovor?
...
Čudi me da čak ni Mrkalj se ne javlja na ovu temu...

Dakle, nisam zadovoljan kako vodiš temu.

Ah da, odličan zemljovid Raške na Wikipediji:

I ispod karte wikipedista kaže:
Jezik: Srpski jezik
Glavni grad: Ras
Religija: Pravoslavna

Ovo za religiju se ne slažem. Gruba je to greška. Bila je i tada masa katoličkih Srba. Sve zapadno od Neretve i dobar deo Bosne, ikvaci. Srbi ikavci. Katolici. Ikavica je zarazna kao i ekavica. Zbog te činjenice buduće Srbe ikavce lako su poikavili katolički popovi glagoljaši koji su bogoslužbu držali na crkvenoslovenskom jeziku ikavskog izgovora. Srbi katolici iz Raške i Bosne primaju i zapadnohrišćanske reči iz katoličke bogoslužbe kao npr. križ, kruh, svećenik itsl. Iz zapadne Raške/Srbije su Bunjevci, a Šokci su bosanski ikavci. Bosna i Raška/Srbija su zemlje u kojima žive dominantno Srbi čak i u 19. veku (vidi Vatikansku enciklopediju koja govori o etničkoj strukturi Bose http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/02694a.htm Excluding some 30,000 Albanians living in the south-east, the Jews who emigrated in earlier times from Spain, a few Osmanli Turks, the merchants, officials. and Austrian troops, the rest of the population (about 98 per cent) belong to the southern Slavonic people, the Serbs. Although one in race, the people form in religious beliefs three sharply separated divisions: the Mohammedans, about 550,000 persons (35 per cent), Greek Schismatics, about 674,000 persons (43 per cent), and Catholics, about 334,000 persons (21.3 per cent). The last mentioned are chiefly peasants.)

Da zaključim, naša nejaka istoriografija još se nije oslobodila hipoteke brozologije, i zato tapka u mestu. Lustracije nije bilo, pa treba čekati biološku smenu mozgova, tj. mladu krv.
