However, this decision was based on old strategy of destruction of Serb ethnical, cultural and spiritual area. Through entire Montenegrin history, Montenegrins have considered themselves as ethnic Serbs by nationality. With him as its near-absolute ruler, of course. The Balkans are notorious for ethnic enmity and violence, and observers have taken to monitoring the region the way scientists do an awakening volcano. With tensions in Kosovo reduced to a simmer, the consensus is that the next Balkan hotspot is likely to be Montenegro.
Numerous lobbies try to separate Montenegro from Serbia only for political and economic reasons.
That's why they claim that Montenegrins are not Serbs. A false theory born during WW2. It will be hard for them to revise history because the older generations living today in Montenegro claim that they are Serbs. In Montenegro live only true and pure Serbs who speak Serbian language. Montenegro's most renowned poet and ruler, the 19th century bishop-prince Petar Petrovic Njegos, considered himself a Serb.
