Address:
Prilep, Republic of Macedonia

The Lordship of Prilep, also known as the Lordship of King Marko , was one of the provinces of the Serbian Empire, centered around the city of Prilep and covering the region of Pelagonia and surrounding areas in western parts of the present-day Republic of Macedonia. In the middle of 14th century, the region was held by lord Vukašin Mrnjavčević, who in 1365 became Serbian king and co-ruler of Serbian emperor Stefan Uroš V .
