The Pavlovićs' Zemlja, (Serbo-Croatian: Pavlovića Zemlja, or Zemlja Pavlovića), is a historical zemlja that arose in the Middle Ages as well-defined administrative unit of medieval Bosnia ruled by the Pavlović dynasty. It included most of today's eastern Bosnia, and some territories on the south of the country, around Trebinje, in Bosansko Primorje and in Konavle. The name of Pavlović land is taken from the patronymic, which was borne by two generations of Pavle Radinović's descendants and administrative sub-division term "zemlja". The seat of Pavlović family was in the town and fortress of Borač and later nearby Pavlovac, which were both located on the left bank of the river Prača, between Mesići and Prača.[1][2]
History
[edit]Knez Pavle Radinović, after whom the zemlja of Pavlović is called, ruled the area in eastern Bosnia. The more significant expansion of Pavle's territory began in 1391, when the Sanković family sold the state territory, which the king could only decide on, without the consent of the king. On the order of King Stjepan Dabiša and the nobles, Pavle with Duke Vlatko Vuković occupied Konavle and expanded his possessions, controlling customs town on Ledenice with Vlatko. In Bosnia, he expanded his territories as far as Olovo in the west, while in the east his territory reached as far as Banja, where it can be seen from the Dubrovnik archive records that, in 1405, the seat of the bishopric of Dabar-Bosna was under the rule of Knez Pavle. He was killed in a conspiracy of King Ostoja (first reign 1398-1404, second reign 1409-1418), duke Sandalj (1392-1435) and Zlatonosović during a walk in Parena poljana between royal court in Sutjeska and Bobovac royal fortress-town, after which he was succeeded by his elder son Petar I (1415-1420).[3]
After the death of Pavle Radinović, his land was divided, and a long-term war between the brothers Petar I and Radosav Pavlović o one side, and Sandalj Hranić, head of Kosača on the other, ensued. In the Hum zemlja, the territory of Pavlović was confined by the territory of Kosača, and there the border changed depending on the changing relations between these two families. The narrowing of the territory began with the sale of half of Konavle to Dubrovnik in 1426 (sealed by peace in 1432) and the loss of Trebinje and the župa of Vrm in 1438, when it was occupied by Stjepan Vukčić.[1]
In the first attack of the Ottomans' army in 1463, the lands of Pavlović and their vassals Kovačevćs, later branch of Dinjčićs, were conquered. With the fall of Bosnia in the same year, the Ottomans named the Pavlovićs' Zemlja "Villajet Pavli" and divided it into 11 nahiyahs, which included Višegrad, Dobrun, Hrtar, Brodar, Prača called Čataldža, Volujak, Borač, Studena, Glasinac or Mokro, Pale and Olovci (Olovo). The seat of the vilayet was placed in Višegrad.[4]
