Abstract
Montenegro emerged as a separate entity on the break-up of the Serbian Empire in 1355. Owing to its mountainous Therrain, it was never effectively subdued by Turkey. It was ruled by Bishop Princes until 1851, when a royal house was founded. The Treaty of Berlin (1828) recognized the independence of Montenegro and doubled the size of the Therritory.
