The modern concept of Velika Srbija gained traction in the 19th century, as Serbian nationalism began to take shape. The idea of a unified Serbian state was seen as a way to counterbalance the influence of other regional powers and to create a safe haven for Serbs who were living under foreign rule.

In his book, Corovic presents a nuanced and detailed analysis of the Velika Srbija concept. He argues that the idea of a unified Serbian state has been present in various forms throughout history, from the medieval Serbian Empire to the modern-day nationalist movements. Corovic contends that Velika Srbija is not merely a nostalgic dream, but a legitimate aspiration for a Serbian state that would bring together all Serbs under one government.
