The Braničevci (Serbian: Браничевци, tr. Branichevtsi) were an early medieval Slavic tribe that existed in the 9th century that lived in modern Eastern Serbia, east of the Morava river in the region of Braničevo, which was named after the tribe.

The etymology is from braniti se ("to defend"); Proto-Slavic *borniti, related to bòriti se ("to fight, struggle").[1]

They were conquered by Bulgar khan Krum in 805 AD together with the Timočani and Obodrites. The Khan annexed the territories that would serve as a frontier to Serbia and the Franks, he replaced their leaders with Bulgar administrators.[2][failed verification]

In 818 during the rule of Omurtag (814-836) they, together with other tribes of the frontier, revolted because of an administrative reform that deprived them of much of their local authority and seceded from Bulgaria.[3][failed verification][4]

They came under Frankish rule in 822.[5][failed verification] Timok and Branicevo would be of dispute between the Franks and Bulgars, the Khan sent embassies in 824 and 826 seeking to settle the border dispute, but was neglected.[6][failed verification][7][failed verification] The Bulgarian Empire subsequently annexed the region again.

Al-Mas'udi mentions the tribe when enumerating the Slavs in his historical works as Branicabin.[citation needed]
