The majority of the population of Serbia are Serbs, but another 37 nationalities also live on its territory. All citizens have equal rights and responsibilities and enjoy full ethnic equality.
Followed by the New Year celebrations and Orthodox Christmas, the religious observances finally wrap up on January 20th with the day of St Jovan (John), who baptized Jesus Christ in the Jordan River.
Serbs are Orthodox Christians, and as such, are facing faith and church. Accordingly, much attention has been given a church wedding as seriously sanctity marriage, which is the basis and foundation of the family, and thus the church and state.
