Bože pravde
National anthem of Serbia / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Bože pravde" (Serbian: Боже правде, Serbian pronunciation: [bǒʒe prâːʋde], 'O God of Justice')[2] is the national anthem of Serbia, as defined by the Article 7 of the Constitution of Serbia.[3] "Bože pravde" was adopted in 1882 and had been the national anthem of the Kingdom of Serbia until 1919 when Serbia became a part of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes.[4] It was re-adopted as the national anthem at first by the parliamentary recommendation in 2004 and then constitutionally sanctioned in 2006, after Serbia restored its independence.[5]
