The Serbian Principality (Serbian: Кнежевина Србија, Kneževina Srbija) was a state in the Balkans that came into existence as a result of First Serbian Uprising and Second Serbian Uprising between 1804 and 1815.

Despite serious and extremely brutal oppression and revenge by the Ottoman authorities (that was especially evident between the revolutions), first Karađorđe and then Miloš Obrenović, the revolutionary leaders, have succeeded in their goal to liberate Serbia after centuries of Turkish rule. Turkish authorities have acknowledged this state in 1830 by the charter known as the Hatisherif, and Miloš became a hereditary prince of the Serbian Principality.

At first, the principality included only territory of former Pashaluk of Belgrade, but was in 1831-1833 expanded to east, south and west. It was further expanded to south-east in 1878. The Principality would last until 1882 when Serbian Kingdom was proclaimed, after achieving full independence in 1878 (see Treaty of Berlin, 1878).

The Principality was reigned by the Obrenović dynasty, except for a period when it was reigned by Prince Aleksandar of the Karađorđević dynasty. Princes Miloš and Mihailo Obrenović each had reigned twice.
