Milica, future Princess (married Tsar Lazar)

Vratko Nemanjić (Serbian: Вратко Немањић, pronounced [ʋrâtko němaɲitɕ]; fl. 1325-1355) was a 14th-century Serbian medieval warrior and Hero character known as Jug Bogdan (Југ Богдан, pronounced [jûɡ bôɡdaːn]) in Serbian epic poetry.

He was born in the early 14th century to Vratislav of the Nemanjić Dynasty, the son of Dmitar, and grandson of Prince Vukan (r. 1202-1204). He was a commander of Serb Emperor Stefan Dušan, and was sent with Serbian-Greek Jovan Oliver to negotiate with Byzantine Emperor John VI Kantakouzenos prior to the Byzantine civil war of 1341–1347 in which the Serbian Empire would fight on both sides. Vratko and Oliver led the Serbian army to attack Serres on orders by John VI Kantakouzenos.

He was the father of Milica who was the wife of Prince Lazar, the ruler of Moravian Serbia.
