Belgrade (Serbo-Croatian, Beograd, German Belgrad), (population 1.2 million, 1.6 including the suburbs) is the capital of Serbia (since 1817) and Yugoslavia (1918-2003).
Thrice occupied by Austria (1688-1690, 1717-1739, 1789-1791), the city was briefly held (1806-1813) by Serbian forces during the first national uprising against Ottoman rule, and in 1817 became the capital of an autonomous principality of Serbia (except in the period from 1818-1839, when Kragujevac was the country's capital city).
Belgrade was bombed by NATO aviation during the Kosovo War in 1999 which caused substantial damage.
