DRAGOMIR ACOVIC INTERVIEW FOR DAILY NEWS PAPER PRAVDA

Crown and Double-headed eagle are symbols of the Serbia’s sovereignty! Hungary, Bulgaria, Montenegro and Russia have a Crown although they are all republics

Serbia’s Parliament is to adopt today a law regarding use of the state symbols. It has been three years since the Constitution to establish a flag, coat of arms and anthem was endorsed; it is the statute’s turn now. Dragomir Acovic, one of the leading Serbian heraldists, thinks that by passing this law Serbia has finally, “after half of century of Communist darkness and Bolshevik symbols imposed on her, returned to her ancient symbols that personify her statehood and tradition”.

With the spring at our doorsteps our team has been dedicated to create new updates on our site to enable better usability. This means that there will be some improvements on our website, one of the most important ones will be that the forums are going to be embedded into the site. This means only one menu and a complete inteface of languages.

Another large update will be that users will have public profiles in which they can put information they want. E.g., users can choose to put some relative information about their family tree in their profile, SGS members can create galleries and have extended permissions on the site. There is also a possibility that users can have Blogs, this however is something that is still under debate in our team.

Below a map of Serbia in 1196 during the reign of Stefan Nemanja, the map gives an indication how Serbia looked like during that period. Please note that this is a first version and that there will be changes.
