Great Retreat (Serbia)
The Great Retreat was the retreat of the Royal Serbian Army through the mountains of Albania during the winter of 1915–16 in World War I. In Serbian memory and historical discourse, the event is often described as the Albanian Golgotha (Serbian: Албанска голгота, romanized: Albanska golgota) or Serbian Golgotha (Serbian: Српска голгота, romanized: Srpska golgota), due to the large number of casualties and hardships experienced by the retreating Serbian soldiers and civilians. It is considered to be a defining event in Serbian history.
