History edit
The village has its origins in a military settlement founded by Serb soldier migrants on the right bank of the Adzhamka river in 1753 as part of the New Serbia colony in Imperial Russia. The name of the village has Serbian roots, and is related to the modern Serbian-language placename Subotica (Serbian Cyrillic: Суботица). The Serbs had hostile relations with the local existing population, who saw the soldiers as a threat to their cultural identity. These differences and hostility between populations faded away with time.[2] In 1886, there were 2791 people in the village.
During World War II, the invading armies of Nazi Germany, regionally led by Paul Ludwig Ewald von Kleist occupied Subottsi on 5 August 1941. The village was liberated by the Red Army during the Kirovograd offensive on 5 January 1944.[2]
