  • Montenegro Old and New: History, Politics, Culture, and the People
    60 ZuZana Poláčková; Pieter van Duin Montenegro Old and New: History, Politics, Culture, and the People The authors are focusing on how Montenegro today is coming to terms with the task of becoming a modern European nation, which implies recognition not only of democracy, the rule of law, and so forth, but also of a degree of ‘multiculturalism’, that is recognition of the existence of cultural, ethnic, linguistic and religious minorities in a society that is dominated by a Slavic Orthodox majority. In his context they are analyzing the history of the struggle of the Montenegrin people against a host of foreign invaders – after they had ceased to be invaders themselves – and especially their apparently consistent refusal to accept Ottoman sovereignty over their homeland seemed to make them the most remarkable freedom fighters imaginable and led to the creation of a special Montenegrin image in Europe. This im- age of heroic stubbornness and unique martial bravery was even consciously cultivated in Western and Central Europe from the early nineteenth century onwards, as the Greeks, the Serbs, the Montenegrins and other Balkan peoples began to resist the Ottoman Empire in a more effective way and the force of Romantic nationalism began to influence the whole of Europe, from German historians to British politi- cians, and also including Montenegrin and Serbian poets themselves. And what about the present situa- tion? The authors of this essay carried out an improvised piece of investigation into current conditions, attitudes, and feelings on both the Albanian and the Slavic-Montenegrin side (in September 2012). key words: Montenegro; history; multiculturalism; identity; nationalism; Muslim; Orthodox Montenegro (Crna Gora, Tsrna Gora, Tsernagora) is a small country in the Western Balkans region with some 625,000 inhabitants,1 which became an independent nation in 2006 and a can- didate-member of the EU in 2010.

  • According to Antique Historians and the Paschal Chronicle the Scythian Empire Or the Federation of Nations Was Founded Around 3660 BC
    Summary DOCLEA AND PRAEVALITANA According to antique historians and the Paschal Chronicle the Scythian Empire or the federation of nations was founded around 3660 BC. The Scythians started to colonize the Balkans around 1800 BC and this mission ended around 1500 BC. Around 1000 BC the Kimmerian Scythians attacked Italy where they formeded their territories. The oldest Scythian Balkan state was Thracia which was created by the Pedases people around 3500 BC, and the Egyptian sources are also mentioning it as an enemy state around 2000 BC. Around 1600 BC a powerful cen- tral Balkan state was created and its name was Dar- dania. The Egyptian sources of 1452 BC from the period of the reign of Amenophis II and of 1240 from the period of the reign of Ramses II are men- tioning the names of Scythian Balkan nations: the Moesi, the Dardanians, the Thracian Pedases, and the Odrysae people. The Scythian Docleatae belonged to the Parthian Scythians; part of them descended to the Balkans in the second half of the second millennium BC. 649 Vojislav D. Nikčević: DOCLEA AND PRAEVALITANA They created two cities around 1040 BC: Doclea and Scodra. On the territory of today’s Montenegro the Docleatae founded three cities: Medun, Risinium (Risan) and Budua (Budva). In VII and VI century BC the powerful Kingdom of Pontus of the Aorses created its federal unit in the middle Dalmatia and the Scythian Balkan federation known as the Kingdom of the Danube Scythians ruled by the Scytho-Sarmatian Autariatae. This state-alliance included the Kingdom of Pannonia with its capital Sirmium, the alliance con- sisted of the Veneti and the Liburnians, the Kingdom of Aorses, kingdoms of Dardania and Moesia and the agreed province of two kingdoms – Dacia with Trivalia (Praevaliana, future Praevalitana) as well as Scythia Minor.
