The town was first mentioned in the historic documents in 1308 by the name Koram. After the fall of Serbian Despotate in 1459, a large number of Serbs moved to the north. It was under the control of Hungarian noble families before being subjugated by Ottomans in 1521. The Slavic name Karlovci was recorded in 1532-33. It remained a part of the Ottoman Empire for the next 170 years. The major part of town was populated by Serbs, with the small Muslim population. It was the biggest city with a Serb majority in the entire Ottoman Empire with three orthodox churches and a monastery. The town was the cultural and political capital of Serbian Vojvodina. From 1980 to 1989, Sremski was one of the seven municipalities of Novi Sad and today it operates as a separate administrative unit of South Backa District.<\/p>\n
