The '''Metropolitanate of Karlovci''' ({{langx|sr|Карловачка митрополија|Karlovačka mitropolija}}) was a metropolitanate of the Eastern Orthodox Church that existed in the Habsburg monarchy between 1708 and 1848.{{sfn|Ćirković|2004|p=150-151}} Between 1708 and 1713, it was known as the '''Metropolitanate of Krušedol''', and between 1713 and 1848, as the '''Metropolitanate of Karlovci'''. In 1848, it was elevated to the Patriarchate of Karlovci, which existed until 1920, when it was merged with the Metropolitanate of Belgrade and other Eastern Orthodox jurisdictions in the newly established Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes to form the unified Serbian Orthodox Church.

==History== During the 16th and 17th centuries, all of the southern and central parts of the former medieval Kingdom of Hungary were under Turkish rule and organized as Ottoman Hungary. Since 1557, Serbian Orthodox Church in those regions was under jurisdiction of the Serbian Patriarchate of Peć. During the Great Turkish War, much of the central and southern Hungary was liberated and Serbian Orthodox eparchies in those regions fell under the Habsburg rule. In 1689, Serbian Patriarch Arsenije III Crnojević sided with Austrians and moved from Peć to Belgrade in 1690, leading the Great Migration of the Serbs. At that time, a large number of Serbs migrated to southern and central parts of Hungary.{{sfn|Pavlowitch|2002|pp=19-20}}{{sfn|Ćirković|2004|p=144, 244}}

Important privileges were given to them by Emperor Leopold I in three imperial chapters (Diploma Leopoldinum) the first issued in 1690, the second a year later, in 1691, and the third in 1695.{{sfn|Draganić|2010|p=257}} Privileges allowed Serbs to keep their Eastern Orthodox faith and church organization headed by archbishop and bishops. In next two centuries of its autonomous existence, autonomous Serbian Church in Habsburg monarchy was organized on the basis of privileges originally received from the emperor. As the Serb settlers were granted religious freedom and ecclestical autonomy without separate diet, the Metropolitanate of Karlovci developed not only into religious but also quasi-political institution with its assembly effectively functioning as a Serb estates diet.{{sfn|Calic|2019|p=143-144}}

He held the title of Serbian Patriarch until the end of his life. New emperor Joseph I (1705–1711), following the advice of Cardinal Leopold Karl von Kollonitsch abolished that title, and substitute it with less distinguished title of archbishop or metropolitan. In his decree, Emperor Joseph I stated, "we must make sure that they never elect another Patriarch since it is against the Catholic Church and the doctrine of the Fathers of the Church". According to that, future primates of the Serbian Orthodox Church in the new Kingdom of Serbia of the Habsburg Monarchy will bare the title of archbishop and metropolitan. The only exception from the Imperial decree was the case of later Serbian Patriarch Arsenije IV Jovanović Šakabenta (1725–1748) who brought his title directly from the historic see of Peć (1737).{{sfn|Todorović|2006|p=12-13}}

After the death of Patriarch Arsenije III (1706), the Serbian Church Council was held at the Krušedol Monastery in 1708 and proclaimed Krušedol to be the see of the newly elected archbishop and metropolitan Isaija Đaković. The Krušedol Monastery was bequest of the late medieval Serbian Branković dynasty in the beginning of the 16th century, which was the main historical and national reason for the Serbs to choose this monastery as their eclessiastical seat.{{sfn|Ćirković|2004|p=150}}

Between 1708 and 1713, the seat of the metropolitanate was at the Krušedol Monastery, and in 1713 it was moved to Karlovci (modern-day Sremski Karlovci, Serbia). The new archbishop Vićentije Popović (1713–1725) moved all administration from Krušedol to Karlovci.{{sfn|Ćirković|2004|p=150-151}} So, the new seat of the Serbian Church in Habsburg Monarchy became Sremski Karlovci which was confirmed by the seal of imperial approval in the charter of Emperor Charles VI issued in 1713.

During the Austro-Turkish War (1716–1718), regions of Lower Syrmia, Banat, central Serbia with Belgrade, and Oltenia were liberated from Ottoman rule, and under the Treaty of Passarowitz (1718) became part of the Habsburg Monarchy.{{sfn|Dabić|2011|p=191-208}} Political change was followed by ecclesiastical reorganization. Eparchies in newly liberated regions were not subjected to the Metropolitan of Karlovci, mainly because Habsburg authorities did not want to allow the establishment of unified and centralized administrative structure of the Eastern Orthodox Church in the Monarchy. Instead, they supported the establishment of a separate metropolitanate for Eastern Orthodox Serbs and Romanians in liberated regions, centered in Belgrade. The newly created ''Metropolitanate of Belgrade'' was headed by metropolitan Mojsije Petrović. Metropolitanate of Belgrade had jurisdiction over Kingdom of Serbia and Banat, as well as Oltenia.{{sfn|Točanac-Radović|2018|pp=155-167}}

The establishment of new metropolitan province was approved by Serbian Patriarch Mojsije I (1712–1725). Shortly after, in 1726, two metropolitanates merged and by the imperial decree of Charles VI, the administrative capital of Serbian Church was moved from Sremski Karlovci to Belgrade in 1731. Metropolitan Vikentije Jovanović (1731–1737) resided in Belgrade.{{sfn|Todorović|2006|pp=12-13}}

During the Austro-Turkish War (1737–1739), Serbian Patriarch Arsenije IV Jovanović Šakabenta (1725–1748) sided with the Habsburgs and in 1737 left Peć and came to Belgrade, taking over the administration of the metropolitanate. He received imperial confirmation, and when Belgrade fell to Ottomans in the autumn of 1739, he moved the church headquarters to Sremski Karlovci.

In 1748, patriarch Arsenije IV died, and church council was held for the election of a new primate of the Serbian Orthodox Church in the Habsburg Monarchy. After the short tenure of metropolitan Isaija Antonović (1748–1749), another church council was held, electing the new metropolitan Pavle Nenadović (1749–1768).{{sfn|Ćirković|2004|p=165}} During his tenure important administrative reforms were undertaken in the Metropolitanate of Karlovci. He also tried to help the patriarchal mother-church in Peć, under the Ottoman rule, but the old Serbian Patriarchate could not be saved. In 1766, the Serbian Patriarchate of Peć was finally abolished, and all of its eparchies that were under Turkish rule were overtaken by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. Serbian hierarchs of the Metropolitanate of Karlovci had no intention to submit themselves to the Greek Patriarch in Constantinople, and the Ecumenical Patriarchate also had enough wisdom not to demand their submission. From that time, Metropolitanate of Karlovci continued functioning as the fully independent ecclesiastical center of Eastern Orthodoxy in the Habsburg Monarchy, with seven suffragan bishops (Bačka, Vršac, Timisoara, Arad, Buda, Pakrac, and Gornji Karlovac).<ref>Bojan Aleksov: Religious Dissent Between the Modern and the National: Nazarenes in Hungary and Serbia 1850-1914, Otto Harrassowitz Verlag, 2006 page 33</ref>

The position of Serbs and their church in Habsburg Monarchy was further regulated by reforms brought about by Dowager-Empress Maria Theresa, Queen of Hungary (1740–1780). The Serb Church Council of 1769 regulated various issues in a special act named "Regulament" and, later, in similar act called the ''Declaratory Rescript of the Illyrian Nation'', published in 1779.{{sfn|Martin|Petit|1907|p=781-850}}{{sfn|Ćirković|2004|p=166-167}}

The death of Maria Theresa in 1780 marked the end the old imperial and royal House of Habsburg, highly respected among Orthodox Serbs, and succession passed to the new dynasty, called the House of Habsburg-Lorraine that ruled until 1918. Enlightened reforms of emperor Joseph II (1780–1790) affected all religious institutions in the Monarchy, including the Metropolitanate of Karlovci. One of such reforms, emposed by state authorities during the second half of the XVIII century, was the reduction of religious holydays.{{sfn|Točanac-Radović|2020|p=83-98}}

Serbian metropolitans of Sremski Karlovci promoted the Enlightenment by introducing western education in the schools established in Sremski Karlovci (1733), and in Novi Sad (1737). In order to counter the Roman Catholic influence, the school curricula was exposed to cultural influence of the Russian Orthodox Church. As early as in 1724 the Holy Synod of Russian Orthodox Church sent M. Suvorov to open a school in Sremski Karlovci, which graduates were thereof passed on to Kievan seminary, and the more gifted to the Academy in Kiev.<ref>Aidan Nichols: Theology in the Russian Diaspora: Church, Fathers, Eucharist in Nikolai Afanasʹev (1893–1966), CUP Archive, 1989 page 49</ref> The Church liturgical language became Russian Slavonic, called the New Church Slavonic. On another hand, Baroque influence became visible in the church architecture, iconography, literature and theology.<ref>Augustine Casiday: The Orthodox Christian World, Routledge, Aug 21, 2012 page 135</ref>

During the eighteenth century the Metropolitanate maintained close connections with the Kiev Theological Academy and the Russian Orthodox Church. Several prominent East Slavic scholars, like Emanuel Kozačinski, were employed by the Karlovci Metropolitanate as educators already during the first half of the 18th century. In time, many Serbian theological students were educated in Kiev. A Seminary was open in 1794 which educated Orthodox priests during the nineteenth century for the needs of the Karlovci Metropolitanate and beyond.{{sfn|Đorđević|2010|p=125-131}}

By the end of the 18th century, the Metropolitanate of Karlovci included a large territory that stretched from the Adriatic Sea to Bukovina and from Danube and Sava to Upper Hungary. During the long tenure of highly conservative metropolitan Stefan Stratimirović (1790–1836),{{sfn|Ćirković|2004|p=167, 171}} internal reforms were halted, resulting in the gradual formation of two fractions that would subsequently mark the life of Orthodox Serbs in the Metropolitanate, and later Patriarchate of Karlovci throughout the 19th century. First fraction was clerical and conservative. It was led by majority of bishops and higher clergy. Second fraction was oriented towards further reforms within the church administration, in order to allow more influence on decision making to lower clergy, laity and civil leaders. In the same time, aspirations towards Serbian national autonomy within the Empire gained great importance, leading to historical events of 1848–49.{{sfn|Ćirković|2004|p=200-202}}
