 Population on 01-Apr-02 : 51471 ------------------------------- Sombor (Serbian:Hungarian: Zombor, Croatian: Sombor, Rusin: ??????) is a city located in Serbia and Montenegro at 45.78? N 19.12? E. The city has a total population of 50,950 (as of 2002), while Sombor municipality has 96,669 inhabitants. It is the administrative center of the West Ba?ka District of Serbia. The first historical record about the city is from 1340. The city belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary until the 16th century, when it became part of the Ottoman Empire. During the Ottoman rule, the city was mostly populated by ethnic Serbs. In 1665, a well-known traveller Evlia Celebi visited Sombor and wrote: "All the folk (in the city) is not Hungarian, but Wallachian-Christian (Serb). These places are something special; they do not belong to Hungary, but are a part of Ba?ka and Wallachia. Most of the inhabitants are traders, and all of them wear frontiersmen clothes; they are very polite and brave people." Since 1687, the city was under Habsburg rule, and was included into Habsburg Military Frontier. In 1717, the first Orthodox elementary school was opened. Five years later a Roman-Catholic elementary school was opened as well. In 1745 Sombor was excluded from the Military Frontier and was included into Ba?ka County. In 1749 Sombor gained a "free royal city" status. In 1786, the city became a seat of Ba?ka County. According to the 1786 data, the population of the city numbered 11,420 people, mostly Serbs.
