) is a country located in Southeastern Europe. It has a coast on the
Adriatic Sea to the south and borders Croatia to the west, Bosnia and
Herzegovina to the northwest, Serbia and its partially recognized breakaway
southern province of Kosovo to the northeast and Albania to the southeast.
Its capital and largest city is Podgorica, while Cetinje is designated as

A Serbian principality in the Late Middle Ages, its independence from the
Ottoman Empire was formally recognized in 1878. From 1918, Montenegro became
a part of various incarnations of Yugoslavia and the state union of Serbia
and Montenegro. Based on the results of the referendum held on May 21, 2006,
Montenegro declared independence on June 3, 2006 making it the newest fully
recognized country in the world. On June 28, 2006, it became the 192nd
member state of the United Nations, and on May 11, 2007, the 47th member
