The Principality of Serbia was declared a kingdom on 6 March 1882, and Milan Obrenović was proclaimed King of Serbia.
This event changed the state's official designation from a principality to a kingdom. Milan, who had been Prince since 1868, assumed the title of King. The proclamation followed the 1878 Treaty of Berlin, which had secured full independence from the Ottoman Empire.
