Ivo Andric Ivo Andric got the Nobel Price for the literature 1961. His works are translated and published in the most of the main world languages. I am very proud of that fact. We are very small country. To have a genious that is born in big nation is expected, statisticly it is a bigger chance, but in such small country it make it more special.

Nikola TeslaIs it nice to have electricity? The answer is positive of course. Well, everybody not only Serbs have to give a credit to Nikola Tesla. He invented many other things too. What about wireless communication, radio, fluorescent lights, and more than 700 other patents. To be honest his genious had a financial support in USA, so we have to share the pride with americans.Serbian inteligence and american money...hahaha, no comment on this.

Vuk Stefanovic KaradzicEverry Serb has to be tankful to this man. He was genious. Thanks to him, writing and reading Serbian is piece of cake.His writing reform has brought to the ideal system where one sound is represented by only one letter, and one letter represents only one sound which means: write as you talk and read as it is written. I neded about 2 minutes to learn my foreign friends to read :)) Honestly I did, piece of cake, I told you !
