The House of Nemanjić (Serbian: Немањићи; Anglicised: Nemanyid) was a medieval Serbian ruling dynasty. The Stefan dynasty - House of Nemanjić was named after Stefan Nemanja. It was descended from the cadet line of the House of Vojislavljević. The House of Nemanjić produced eleven Serbian monarchs between 1166 and 1371.
Rulers of this dynasty wore the titles Grand Princes of Rascia from 1166. After the crowning of Stefan the First-Crowned in 1217, the full title of the dynasty was King of the land of Rascia, Doclea, Travunia, Dalmatia and Zachlumia, although a shorter version of the title was King of the Serbs. Following the elevation of members of the dynasty to the status of Emperors in 1346, the title became Tsar of All Serbs, Albanians, Greeks and Bulgarians. The family crest was a bicephalic argent eagle on a red shield, inherited from the Byzantine Paleologus dynasty. The House of Nemanjić ruled the Serb lands between c. 1166 up to 1371.
The current Royal House of Yugoslavia, the Karađorđević dynasty, regards itself as the successor of the House of Nemanjić. See: Nemanjic pedigree of the Royal House of Yugoslavia. See also
