Country: Serbia Nationality: Serb

Laughable, at the very least... Sideshow Bob 19:19, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

The Nemanyiden were (of) Vojislav(ljev)ics. The country is not Doclea (since it includes also Rascia, Bosnia, Travunia, Zachlumia, Canalites, Merania, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Kosovo, Dalmatia, Arboria, Thessaly, Slavonia, Usora, Soli, Syrmia, Epirus, Serres, Bdyn, etc...). The collective name historically used for the region "Serbia" (name for the vast majority of these areas and historical name for the country) should be adopted. Pointing out "Duklja" is (somewhat) improper because its only a tiny portion of the Vojislavljevics' domain.

Nationality: "Dukljan (Montenegrin)". It seems too improper to prefer "Montenegrin" over "Serbian". And as for "Doclean", I don't see how one of the many lands this dynasty decides the ruling dynasty's nationality (were the Habsburgs of Neapolitan nationality?), and most especially the land upon which this family conquered and imposed its rule in the first place. You could also put: "Nationality: Bulgarian" according to that logic. --PaxEquilibrium 13:08, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
