Following World War I, Serbia, as part of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes (later renamed Yugoslavia), had no flag of its own but flew the Yugoslav blue-white-red tricolour (first hoisted on Oct. 31, 1918, shortly before the establishment of the kingdom).
In 1326, king Stefan Dečanski sent a delegate to the Mamluk Sultanate in Alexandria and sought a flag in yellow colour, to be used as a war flag. The Byzantines mention that there were several war flags hoisted by the Serbs at the Battle of Velbazhd (1330), and the yellow one was likely one of those.
