Slava (Serbian Cyrillic: Слава, Other: Serbian Krsna Slava) is the Orthodox Christian custom of honoring a family patron saint. It is traditionally celebrated by the Serbs, but also in parts of neighbouring Balkan states where Serb origin/influence exist, like the Republic of Macedonia[1] and Bulgaria,[2] as well as among some Croats and even Gorani (a Muslim nation previously Serbian Orthodox in the 18th century). It is the most important custom of the Serbs. -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slava
