WEAKENING OF THE OTTOMAN RULE IN MONTENEGRO (17th and 18th CENTURIES)

32403

Ottoman State abolished Crnojeviç Dynasty and founded an autonomous regime in Montenegro which it domineered in 1479. As of 1516, Orthodox men of religion called vladika who were appointed by election, started to govern Montenegro. This situation continued until I. Danilo Petrovic was chosen as vladika in 1697. I. Danilo Petroviç left the reign to his relatives and established a dynasty thereby starting the rulership of Petrovic Family who governed Montenegro until 1918. Vladikas who were the members of Petroviç Family started struggling in order to free themselves from Ottoman rule.
