Violence against Serbs during the late Ottoman era

Violence against Serbs in the late Ottoman era

The Principality of Serbia received autonomy from the Ottoman Empire in the early 19th century, but a Serb population remained to the south, outside of the borders of the principality. With the Serbian–Ottoman Wars (1876–1878) and the Congress of Berlin, the Serbian borders were expanded. During this time, numerous instances of violent acts were perpetrated towards local Serb populations.
