Gallipoli Serbs
Gallipoli Serbs ( sr, галипољски Срби / ''galipoljski Srbi'') were a group of Serbs from Serbian region named Srem (Syrmia) that were settled to Gallipoli by the Ottoman Empire some time after 1692 to engage in trade, then returned to the Niš region in the beginning of the 18th century, and finally settled by the Yugoslav authorities in Pehčevo in the beginning of the 20th century. With the Austro-Turkish War, a group of '' Šumadinci'' from around Jagodina (present-day Central Serbia) were deported to Gallipoli sometime after 1692. In their epic stories, Jagodina is described as an ancient seat. In the beginning of the 18th century, these Gallipoli Serbs tried to flee to their hometown, but they were captured by Hadži Bešir-aga and were temporarily settled around Pirot. A part of these refugees, the Abdurahman efendija of Niš took and settled in his čiflik on the right side of the Nišava not far from the Niš fortress. From these čifliks, Jagodin Mala rece ...

18th Century In Serbia
18 (eighteen) is the natural number following 17 and preceding 19. In mathematics * Eighteen is a composite number, its divisors being 1, 2, 3, 6 and 9. Three of these divisors (3, 6 and 9) add up to 18, hence 18 is a semiperfect number. Eighteen is the first inverted square-prime of the form ''p''·''q''2. * In base ten, it is a Harshad number. * It is an abundant number, as the sum of its proper divisors is greater than itself (1+2+3+6+9 = 21). It is known to be a solitary number, despite not being coprime to this sum. * It is the number of one-sided pentominoes. * It is the only number where the sum of its written digits in base 10 (1+8 = 9) is equal to half of itself (18/2 = 9). * It is a Fine number. In science Chemistry * Eighteen is the atomic number of argon. * Group 18 of the periodic table is called the noble gases. * The 18-electron rule is a rule of thumb in transition metal chemistry for characterising and predicting the stability of metal complexes.

17th Century In Serbia
17 (seventeen) is the natural number following 16 and preceding 18. It is a prime number. Seventeen is the sum of the first four prime numbers. In mathematics 17 is the seventh prime number, which makes seventeen the fourth super-prime, as seven is itself prime. The next prime is 19, with which it forms a twin prime. It is a cousin prime with 13 and a sexy prime with 11 and 23. It is an emirp, and more specifically a permutable prime with 71, both of which are also supersingular primes. Seventeen is the sixth Mersenne prime exponent, yielding 131,071. Seventeen is the only prime number which is the sum of four consecutive primes: 2, 3, 5, 7. Any other four consecutive primes summed would always produce an even number, thereby divisible by 2 and so not prime. Seventeen can be written in the form x^y + y^x and x^y - y^x, and, as such, it is a Leyland prime and Leyland prime of the second kind: :17=2^+3^=3^-4^. 17 is one of seven lucky numbers of Euler which produc ...

Serbs In Turkey
The Serbs in Turkey are Turkish citizens of Serbian descent or Serbia-born people who reside in Turkey. History During the age of the Ottoman Empire most of Serbia and the Balkans were under Turkish control, and many Serbs moved to Istanbul and Anatolia for reasons ranging from economic to forceful relocation. On 28 August 1521, the Belgrade Fortress was captured by Suleiman the Magnificent, using 250,000 Turkish soldiers and over 100 ships. Subsequently, most of the city was razed to the ground and its entire Orthodox Christian population was deported to Istanbul to an area that has since become known as the Belgrade forest. Many Janissaries were of Serbian descent and were taken as children from their homes and educated in Turkey. Some Serbs achieved political prominence and several Grand Viziers were born as Serbs. Notable people * Mahmud Pasha Angelović, Ottoman Grand Vizier from 1456 to 1466, and 1472 to 1474 * Gedik Ahmed Pasha, Ottoman Grand Vizier from 1474 to ...
