White Serbia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
White Serbia, also known as Bojka (Serbian Cyrillic: Бојка), is the area of modern-day eastern Germany, Poland, Ukraine, Slovakia and Bohemia inhabited by White Serbs in the early middle ages.
Some of the White Serbs migrated to the Balkans between 610 and 641, led by the Unknown Archont. The White Serbs were first given the province of Thessalonica by the Roman emperor Heraclius as a gift because of their victory against the Avars of Dalmatia. Later, they resettled in todays Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia and Montenegro (Paganija, Zahumlje, Travunija, Duklja, and Rascia, were all parts of the great Serbian Empire).
