Summary/Abstract: Since Prince Milan was under age when he came to the throne a special commission was appointed to make a plan for his education. In Serbia, it was thought that the Prince lacked parental guidance and the influence of the Serbian national spirit and tradition. Two years after he took over the power he and a Serbian delegation paid a visit to the Sultan in Constantinople. Philip Hristic, an experienced statesman and politician, and Vladan Djordjevic, the prince’s personal physician, were his traveling companions. This article will present their views about Prince’s visit.
