1189 CE

The ancient Illyrian city of Skopje, situated on a major north-south route of the Balkans, about two hundred miles (three hundred and twenty kilometers) south of present Belgrade, had long been a thriving trading settlement but had fallen into decline after being hit by another devastating earthquake at the end of the eleventh century.

The Serbs take it in 1189 and make it a part of their realm.
