[edit] What is this?

This beg the question:

Where, and on which side was Stefan during the Battle of Kosovo ?

This is stupid question. --Djordjes (talk) 05:51, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

He was 15 years old.... "Stefan Lazarević was the first European-style knight in Serbia"-false. There were many European-style knights in Serbia serving as mercenaries during the 13th century (Palman Braht for example,leader of "Alaman Guard" of Emperor Dushan,his brother and nefew).Even if it would say he was the first European-style ruler in Serbia it would still be false;Stefan Dragutin,son-in-law of Hungarian King,who ruled northern parts of Serbia in late 13th and early 14th centuries was European-style king also.

"He introduced knight tournaments, modern battle tactics, and firearms to Serbia."-very,very false. Knight tournaments were known in Serbia at least 50 years later during the coronation of Emperor Dushan,and possibly earlier.Although,slightly different than European tournaments they still existed. What exactly is considered by "modern battle tactics"?I think this deserves the explanation. Firearms were known in Serbia since middle of 14th century,and by some unverified accounts,bombards were used in Battle of Kosovo.Krusevac,capital of Moravska Serbia,had defensive cannon tower in 1374 when Stefan Lazarevic was born. And another thing.I was confused when i read the list of Serbian monarchs [1].Why is Despot Stefan given number 3? He could be the second (and last) of Lazarevic dynasty(since Lazar took the royal name Stefan),but there is no way he could be third.--Vizantinac 10:44, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
