Raska

Raška (Raschka, Rascia, Rassa) was the central and most successful medieval Serbian state (or župa, area ruled by a župan) that unified neighboring Serbian tribes into the main medieval Serbian state in Balkans.

The present Raška is the area of south-central Serbia, in Serbia and Montenegro.
