The paper presents the conclusions based on the analysis of Serbian history textbooks in the period from 1913 to 2021. The analysis is presented on three levels: 1. factual and interpretive changes; 2. changes in identity politics; 3. changes in the philosophy of history. Although there have always been changes in "facts", the most important conclusion is that since the wars of the 1990s in Serbia, a substantial change has taken place in the identity model offered in schools, which is why the greatest attention has been devoted to this issue.
