Serbia is a nation-state on Earth. Located in Europe, Serbia is part of the European Alliance. Serbia was part of Yugoslavia.
Eugenics Wars
During Eugenics Wars Serbia was one of few country's that oppose tyrant Khan Noonien Singh. In 1993 Khan was lured to the Ajorra caves in central India by Vasily Hunyadi, force behind the Serbian government, who attempted to assassinate Khan by triggering an earthquake caused by an underwater concussive charge place by Hunyadi. This earthquake was in the previously-considered aseismatic region of Maharashtra. The death toll from this quake was over 10,000 and entire villages were destroyed.
Khan attempted to retaliate on February 7 of 1994 during a submarine battle under the Mediterranean Sea between Khan's forces and Hunyadi's. However, his effort was thwarted when the ballistic missile submarine S.G.K. Kaur was attacked because of the no-fly zone imposed by NATO.
On August 29, 1994 Hunyadi addressed the United Nations in defiance against the economic sanctions and the NATO peacekeeping presence to declare that Serbia had nothing to apologize for. During his speech, members of the Army of Eternal Vigilance (AEV) released sarin gas, a nerve toxin, into the council chambers, suffocating to death many ambassadors and tourists and also Vasily Hunyadi.
After death of Vasily Hunyadi Serbia was conquered by Khan forces who liter build bases there. On January 10, 1996 U.S. forces bombed Khan's "terrorist base" in Chandigarh as well as several other Augment bases in Serbia , Afghanistan, Iraq and Sudan. Facing certain defeat at the hands of combined forces from multiple nations, the very next day Khan and 83 of his Augment followers secretly escaped Earth aboard a stolen prototype vessel of the DY-100 sleeper ship christened the "S.S. Botany Bay".
After being liberate form Augments Serbia join European Hegemony. (The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh, Volume 2)
in 22nd century
Charles Tucker III, in an discussion with Malcolm Reed, mentioned that he could not remember any Europeans figuring out how to build a warp engine, "No Brits, no Italians, no Serbo-Croatians." (ENT episode: "Shuttlepod One")
- Due to the existence of Serbo-Croatians, it is possible that they come from a country such as Yugoslavia, Serbia, Croatia, or possibly even Serbo-Croatia. This, however, is not made clear.
The Earth starship Sarajevo that operated during the 2150s was named after the city in Yugoslavia. (ENT episode: "Daedalus")
24th century
The 24th century starship USS Sarajevo was also named after the city in Yugoslavia. (DS9 episode: "In Purgatory's Shadow") (DS9 episode: "In the Pale Moonlight").
The 24th century starship USS Tesla was named after Serbian scientist Nikola Tesla. (TNG game: Star Trek: Armada II).
