White Serbia ((セルビア語:''Белa Србиja''; Archaic: ''Бојка''), ), is the mythical homeland of the ancestors of the Serbs, the White Serbs ((セルビア語:Бели Срби, Beli Srbi)). In De Administrando Imperio the homeland is also called ''Bojka'' (Бојка, ). The area adjacent to White Serbia was known as White Croatia, where the Croats trace their origin. White Serbia and its ethnic designates, the White Serbs, could be interpreted through attributes such as "the unbaptized" or "pagan" (Pre-Christian), according to the ''De administrando imperio''. ==Location== The location of White Serbia has been disputed. It has been described as: *North of the Danube and the Carpathians〔() 〕 *The area of the Czech Republic〔() 〕 *Bohemia〔() 〕 *Between the Elbe and Saale Rivers〔() 〕〔(''The Serbs'' ) 〕 *The area of Poland〔() 〕 *The area of Red Ruthenia (now western Ukraine)〔() 〕 *The island of Rügen (near northern seashore of Germany), once consecrated to Slavonic god Svantevit〔 *Lusatia, a triangle formed by parts of Germany, the Czech Republic and Poland *P. J. Šafařík classified the White Serbs as a Polabian Slavonic tribe〔(H.H. Howorth Esq. FSA The Spread of Slaves Part III, P 181 "They are classed together by Schafarik under the name of Polabian Slaves" )〕〔()〕 File:White serbia white croatia01.png|Locations of White Serbia and White Croatia (around 560), according to the book of Francis Dvornik.
