After the collapse of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY), the remaining republics of Montenegro and Serbia agreed to the formation of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY) which officially abandoned communism and endorsed democratic institutions. Montenegro was a constituent republic of the FRY until 2003, when the FRY was reconstituted as the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro, from which Montenegro separated in 2006 as an independent country.
Montenegro (i/ˌmɒntᵻˈneɪɡroʊ/MON-tən-AYG-roh or /ˌmɒntᵻˈniːɡroʊ/MON-tən-EEG-roh or /ˌmɒntᵻˈnɛɡroʊ/MON-tən-EG-roh; Montenegrin: Crna Gora / Црна Гора[t͡sr̩̂ːnaː ɡɔ̌ra], meaning "Black Mountain") is a sovereign state in Southeastern Europe. It has a coast on the Adriatic Sea to the south-west and is bordered by Croatia to the west, Bosnia and Herzegovina to the northwest, Serbia to the northeast and Albania to the south-east. Its capital and largest city is Podgorica, while Cetinje is designated as the Prijestonica, meaning the former Royal Capital City.
In the 9th century, there were three principalities on the territory of Montenegro: Duklja, roughly corresponding to the southern half, Travunia, the west, and Rascia, the north. In 1042, archonStefan Vojislav led a revolt that resulted in the independence of Duklja and the establishment of the Vojislavljević dynasty. Duklja reached its zenith under Vojislav's son, Mihailo (1046–81), and his grandson Bodin (1081–1101). By the 13th century, Zeta had replaced Duklja when referring to the realm. In the late 14th century, southern Montenegro (Zeta) came under the rule of the Balšić noble family, then the Crnojević noble family, and by the 15th century, Zeta was more often referred to as Crna Gora (Venetian: monte negro). Large portions fell under the control of the Ottoman Empire from 1496 to 1878. Parts were controlled by Venice. From 1515 until 1851 the prince-bishops (vladikas) of Cetinje were the rulers. The House of Petrović-Njegoš ruled until 1918. From 1918, it was a part of Yugoslavia. On the basis of an independence referendum held on 21 May 2006, Montenegro declared independence on 3 June of that year.
Montenegro is a novel written by Starling Lawrence. The book was first published in 1997 by Farrar Straus Giroux publishers. The novel is set in the mountains of Balkans of Montenegro. This was the author's first novel.
Reviews
Publishers weekly in their review called it "a dashing novel set in the rocky heart of the Balkans at the turn of the century, but with emotions and political fervor that uncannily foreshadow the present-day Bosnian quagmire."The Los Angeles Times called it a "a subtle and moving novel, an old-fashioned narrative that addresses modern questions of ethnicity and belonging."

Why did Montenegro leave Yugoslavia so late?
Most of the Yugoslav republics left Yugoslavia in the early 1990s. Montenegro remained in Yugoslavia, but then left in 2006. Why was that?

MONTENEGRO | How Did It Win Back Independence?
In June 2006, after almost 90 years, Montenegro split from neighbouring Serbia and regained its independence. However, few know the extraordinary story of what happened to the country in between. In this video, I explore Montenegro's journey from an independent kingdom to an independent sovereign republic through five different countries - including several different variants of Yugoslavia.

MONTENEGRO: PRESIDENT THREATENS REFERENDUM
(10 Nov 2000) Serbo-Croat/Nat
Montenegro's president has threatens to hold a referendum on seceding from the Yugoslav federation unless his republic's union with Serbia is revamped - including international recognition of the two as independent states.
In an interview with APTN, pro-Western Milo Djukanovic said that "present-day Yugoslavia must be changed to the union of two internationally recognised states".
Djukanovic said that this loose union should only have partly common military command, foreign affairs and joint finances.
All other state structures - including two seats in the United Nations and international financial institutions - could be separate between the two current Yugoslav republics.
Djukanovic said the union should abandon its name Yugoslavia and could ...

Serbia and Montenegro 1992 - 2006
The state was founded on 27 April 1992 as the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, known as FR Yugoslavia or simply Yugoslavia which comprised the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Montenegro. In February 2003, FR Yugoslavia was transformed from a federal republic to a political union until Montenegro seceded from the union in June 2006, leading to the full independence of both Serbia and Montenegro.

MONTENEGRO: REPUBLIC DECLARED OFF-SHORE INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS ZONE
(19 Nov 1996) Eng/Serbo-Croat/Nat
The tiny republic of Montenegro - part of former Yugoslavia - has declared itself an off- shore international business zone, with virtually no limits to foreign investment.
The declaration is being seen as a move towards gaining more economic freedom from neighbour and Yugoslav Federation partner, Serbia.
Montenegro's Prime Minister, Milo Djukanovic, says the republic wants to fully normalise its ties with the west.
This is the Adriatic resort of Budva in Montenegro.
This beautiful old seaside town is just one of the places in the tiny republic that stands to benefit from its declaration as an off-shore international business zone.
In the Montenegrin town of Milocer at the weekend, the Montenegrin Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic and o...

Montenegro is one of the smallest countries in Europe, and yet it has a truly fascinating history. Indeed, as I argue in this video, I am not aware of any other country that has undergone such a wide range of transformations over the course of the past century - if not over the entire history of its existence. This is a story of how this tiny, mountainous South East European state, a former part of Yugoslavia, went from being principality to becoming a kingdom and eventually achieving independence again as a sovereign state when, in 2006, it became the 192nd member of the United Nations.
By the way, one quick clarification: although the country declared independence as the 'Republic of Montenegro', since 2007 it has been formally and simply known as 'Montenegro'.

(10 Nov 2000) Serbo-Croat/Nat
Montenegro's president has threatens to hold a referendum on seceding from the Yugoslav federation unless his republic's union with Serbia is revamped - including international recognition of the two as independent states.
In an interview with APTN, pro-Western Milo Djukanovic said that "present-day Yugoslavia must be changed to the union of two internationally recognised states".
Djukanovic said that this loose union should only have partly common military command, foreign affairs and joint finances.
All other state structures - including two seats in the United Nations and international financial institutions - could be separate between the two current Yugoslav republics.
Djukanovic said the union should abandon its name Yugoslavia and could seek eventual membership in NATO.
Yugoslavia's new pro-democracy President Vojislav Kostunica, whose power base is in Serbia, has spoken against eventual membership in the Western military alliance which bombed his country last year to punish former President Slobodan Milosevic for his crackdown in Kosovo.
Montenegro, the much smaller of Yugoslavia's two republics, has long spoken of splitting from partner Serbia and escaping the autocratic rule of Milosevic.
But with Milosevic gone from Serbia's top job, Western states are urging Montenegro to give up its independence thoughts because they endanger Western plans for peace in Kosovo, the Balkan's powder keg.
Kostunica's camp is seeking to preserve the federation while Montenegro's reformist leadership is pushing for a union of two independent states.
Tensions between Yugoslavia's two republics peaked during Milosevic's autocratic rule when ties were almost severed.
Montenegro's leaders boycotted the federal elections as a protest against Milosevic.
Hoping to see the process of democratisation after the September vote continue in the region, the international community has urged Montenegrins to refrain from hasty decisions and referendum on independence, but to negotiate with Serbs instead.
Despite the change in Belgrade, there have been increasing calls in Montenegro to push ahead with full independence.
SOUNDBITE: (Serbo-Croat)
"I think that future Serbia and Montenegro should be cooperation within the Partnership for Peace and further integration with NATO alliance. That is very logical. You should look at our neighbourhood and you will see that there is no state in our neighbourhood which is either a member of NATO or is on the way to join the NATO. You should think whether it is possible for Serbia and Montenegro to lead any other policy."
SUPER CAPTION: Milo Djukanovic, President of Montenegro
SOUNDBITE: (Serbo-Croat)
"The issue of the legal status must be absolutely verified by the citizens at the referendum. Two models of the referendum are possible by the middle of the next year - the first model being the simultaneous referendum both in Serbia and Montenegro. The condition for that model is that the leaders of both republics reach an agreement on the possible relations between Serbia and Montenegro. If we reach an agreement, I think it is a correct way to offer to the citizens the possibility to verify simultaneously whether they accept the agreement their political leaderships have reached. If we don't reach an agreement, I think it is inevitable that we organize a separate referendum in Montenegro where our citizens would decide whether they want independent Montenegro or some other model of union with Serbia."

And of even the Italian just means Black Mountain.
The name of my contry montenegro literally mean black rock or black mountain.Montenegro is a country in Southeastern Europe. It is located on the Adriatic Sea and is a part of the Balkans, sharing borders with Serbia to the northeast, Bosnia and Herzegovina to the north and west, Albania to the southeast, and the Adriatic Sea and Croatia to the southwest. Podgorica, the capital and largest city, covers 10.4% of Montenegro's territory of 13,812 square kilometres (5,333 sq mi), and is home to roughly 30% of its total population.During the Early Medieval period, three principalities were located on the territory of modern-day Montenegro: Duklja, roughly corresponding to the southern half; Travunia, the west; and Rascia proper, the north. The Principality of Zeta emerged in the 14th and 15th centuries. From the late 14th century to the late 18th century, large parts of southern Montenegro were ruled by the Venetian Republic and incorporated into Venetian Albania.[18] The name Montenegro was first used to refer to the country in the late 15th century. After falling under Ottoman rule, Montenegro regained its independence in 1696 under the rule of the House of Petrović-Njegoš, first as a theocracy and later as a secular principality. Montenegro's independence was recognized by the Great Powers at the Congress of Berlin in 1878. In 1910, the country became a kingdom. After World War I, it became part of Yugoslavia. Following the breakup of Yugoslavia, the republics of Serbia and Montenegro together proclaimed a federation.
Montenegro has an upper middle-income economy and ranks very high in the Human Development Index. It is a member of the United Nations, NATO, the World Trade Organization, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, the Council of Europe, and the Central European Free Trade Agreement. Montenegro is also a founding member of the Union for the Mediterranean, and is currently in the process of joining the European Union.The country's English name derives from Venetian and translates as "Black Mountain", deriving from the appearance of Mount Lovćen when covered in dense evergreen forests. The first written mention of Montenegro in Cyrillic was in the Charter of King Milutin of 1276. In Italian sources, the name of Montenegro was mentioned for the first in its original form Crna Gora in 1348, and in 1379 it is mentioned as Cernagora in the sources from Dubrovnik.
The native name Crna Gora, also meaning "black mountain" or "black hill", was mentioned for the first time in a charter issued by Stefan Milutin. It came to denote the majority of contemporary Montenegro in the 15th century.Originally, it had referred to only a small strip of land under the rule of the Paštrovići tribe, but the name eventually came to be used for the wider mountainous region after the Crnojević noble family took power in Upper Zeta.The aforementioned region became known as Stara Crna Gora 'Old Montenegro' by the 19th century to distinguish the independent region from the neighbouring Ottoman-occupied Montenegrin territory of Brda '(The) Highlands'. Montenegro further increased its size several times by the 20th century, as the result of wars against the Ottoman Empire, which saw the annexation of Old Herzegovina and parts of Metohija and southern Raška. Its borders have changed little since then, losing Metohija and gaining the Bay of Kotor.
After the second session of the AVNOJ during World War II in Yugoslavia, the contemporary modern state of Montenegro was founded as the Federal State of Montenegro (Montenegrin: Савезна држава Црне Горе / Savezna država Crne Gore) on 15 November 1943 within the Yugoslav Federation by the ZAVNOCGB. After the war, Montenegro became a republic under its name, the People's Republic of Montenegro (Montenegrin: Народна Република Црна Гора / Narodna Republika Crna Gora) on 29 November 1945. In 1963, it was renamed to the Socialist Republic of Montenegro (Montenegrin: Социјалистичка Република Црна Гора / Socijalistička Republika Crna Gora). As the breakup of Yugoslavia occurred, the SRCG was renamed to the Republic of Montenegro (Montenegrin: Република Црна Гора / Republika Crna Gora) on 27 April 1992 within the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia by removing the adjective "socialist" from the republic's title. Since 22 October 2007, a year after its independence, the name of the country became simply known as Montenegro.
American gets offended by the country Montenegro even so First mention of the name is in 1024.. but for USA Those 11 century people are racist dicks! but for real im from from Montenegro and this just funny for me because she got no idea what name of my contry mean. The name in my language is "Crna Gora", Black Mountain or Highlands I think would be the direct translation. Montenegro is what Italians would call us and I guess that caught on. And of even the Italian just means Black Mountain.
The name of my contry montenegro literally mean black rock or black mountain.Montenegro is a country in Southeastern Europe. It is located on the Adriatic Sea and is a part of the Balkans, sharing borders with Serbia to the northeast, Bosnia and Herzegovina to the north and west, Albania to the southeast, and the Adriatic Sea and Croatia to the southwest. Podgorica, the capital and largest city, covers 10.4% of Montenegro's territory of 13,812 square kilometres (5,333 sq mi), and is home to roughly 30% of its total population.During the Early Medieval period, three principalities were located on the territory of modern-day Montenegro: Duklja, roughly corresponding to the southern half; Travunia, the west; and Rascia proper, the north. The Principality of Zeta emerged in the 14th and 15th centuries. From the late 14th century to the late 18th century, large parts of southern Montenegro were ruled by the Venetian Republic and incorporated into Venetian Albania.[18] The name Montenegro was first used to refer to the country in the late 15th century. After falling under Ottoman rule, Montenegro regained its independence in 1696 under the rule of the House of Petrović-Njegoš, first as a theocracy and later as a secular principality. Montenegro's independence was recognized by the Great Powers at the Congress of Berlin in 1878. In 1910, the country became a kingdom. After World War I, it became part of Yugoslavia. Following the breakup of Yugoslavia, the republics of Serbia and Montenegro together proclaimed a federation.

(19 Nov 1996) Eng/Serbo-Croat/Nat
The tiny republic of Montenegro - part of former Yugoslavia - has declared itself an off- shore international business zone, with virtually no limits to foreign investment.
The declaration is being seen as a move towards gaining more economic freedom from neighbour and Yugoslav Federation partner, Serbia.
Montenegro's Prime Minister, Milo Djukanovic, says the republic wants to fully normalise its ties with the west.
This is the Adriatic resort of Budva in Montenegro.
This beautiful old seaside town is just one of the places in the tiny republic that stands to benefit from its declaration as an off-shore international business zone.
In the Montenegrin town of Milocer at the weekend, the Montenegrin Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic and other officials from the republic met to officially declare the business zone open.
Montenegro is deeply unhappy with Serbia's reluctance to privatise Yugoslavia's shattered state-run economy or allow the free flow of foreign capital into the country.
The republic stuck with Serbia through the break-up of the former Yugoslavia and has paid dearly through the trade embargo imposed against Yugoslavia in 1992.
Montenegro's aim is to attract more foreign investment through the formation of off-shore companies that would pay minimal taxes of 2.5 percent to the state.
The state won't demand to know the origin of the money invested, which critics say will make Montenegro one of the biggest money-laundering operations in Europe.
Montenegro is hoping foreigners will invest in re-building the republic's road network and modernising its two main airports.
The main area of potential foreign investment is likely to be in tourism and hotels along Montenegro's beautiful, 283 kilometre-long stretch of Adriatic coastline.
But the idea has so angered Serbia that its lawyers have started legal proceedings against Montenegro, arguing that off-shore companies are against Yugoslavia's constitution.
Montenegrin officials have dismissed Serbia's opposition to the project.
SOUNDBITE: (Serbo-Croat)
"The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia will change in the next four-year period in the framework of the existing constitution. We'll try to make a country more democratic and more free than it is now."
SUPER CAPTION: Momir Bulatovic, President of Montenegro
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"The Montenegrin government has provided the framework, I think, which quite a lot of Western countries will want to look at very closely. Tourism is a very obvious one for countries like my own, and they have already started to look at this quite seriously in the relatively short period since the lifting of sanctions."
SUPER CAPTION: Ivor Roberts, British Ambassador to Yugoslavia
One visiting official stressed the importance of Montenegro re-establishing full ties with important money lenders.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"We need to have a good and sophisticated banking system in this country, so we need to be a member of the World Bank and the I-M-F. Because of that we should speed up our efforts to become members of those institutions. I think it's a beautiful idea. We are going to make money."
SUPER CAPTION: Ratko Knezevic, Chief of Montenegrin Trade Mission in Washington
If all goes to plan, the Montenegrin resort of Budva could once again become a thriving seaside town.

Hello everyone Today I want to tell you about how, after the collapse of Socialist Yugoslavia, a new one appeared - little Yugoslavia and how the state of Serbia and Montenegro appeared after that.
00:00 - 00:30 Introduction
00:30 - 01:53 Creation of a new Yugoslavia
01:53 - 04:43 Time bomb
04:43 - 06:56 Serbia and Montenegro
In this video, I will try to touch on wars at least (because in my opinion this is already a very open topic) and try to tell you how, against the background of all the chaos in the Balkans, a new Slavic state was created. Let's talk about Milosevic, the President of Montenegro and the reasons for the collapse...

In June 2006, after almost 90 years, Montenegro split from neighbouring Serbia and regained its independence. However, few know the extraordinary story of what happened to the country in between. In this video, I explore Montenegro's journey from an independent kingdom to an independent sovereign republic through five different countries - including several different variants of Yugoslavia.

Montenegro is one of the smallest countries in Europe, and yet it has a truly fascinating history. Indeed, as I argue in this video, I am not aware of any other country that has undergone such a wide range of transformations over the course of the past century - if not over the entire history of its existence. This is a story of how this tiny, mountainous South East European state, a former part of Yugoslavia, went from being principality to becoming a kingdom and eventually achieving independence again as a sovereign state when, in 2006, it became the 192nd member of the United Nations.
By the way, one quick clarification: although the country declared independence as the 'Republic of Montenegro', since 2007 it has been formally and simply known as 'Montenegro'.

(10 Nov 2000) Serbo-Croat/Nat
Montenegro's president has threatens to hold a referendum on seceding from the Yugoslav federation unless his republic's union with Serbia is revamped - including international recognition of the two as independent states.
In an interview with APTN, pro-Western Milo Djukanovic said that "present-day Yugoslavia must be changed to the union of two internationally recognised states".
Djukanovic said that this loose union should only have partly common military command, foreign affairs and joint finances.
All other state structures - including two seats in the United Nations and international financial institutions - could be separate between the two current Yugoslav republics.
Djukanovic said the union should abandon its name Yugoslavia and could seek eventual membership in NATO.
Yugoslavia's new pro-democracy President Vojislav Kostunica, whose power base is in Serbia, has spoken against eventual membership in the Western military alliance which bombed his country last year to punish former President Slobodan Milosevic for his crackdown in Kosovo.
Montenegro, the much smaller of Yugoslavia's two republics, has long spoken of splitting from partner Serbia and escaping the autocratic rule of Milosevic.
But with Milosevic gone from Serbia's top job, Western states are urging Montenegro to give up its independence thoughts because they endanger Western plans for peace in Kosovo, the Balkan's powder keg.
Kostunica's camp is seeking to preserve the federation while Montenegro's reformist leadership is pushing for a union of two independent states.
Tensions between Yugoslavia's two republics peaked during Milosevic's autocratic rule when ties were almost severed.
Montenegro's leaders boycotted the federal elections as a protest against Milosevic.
Hoping to see the process of democratisation after the September vote continue in the region, the international community has urged Montenegrins to refrain from hasty decisions and referendum on independence, but to negotiate with Serbs instead.
Despite the change in Belgrade, there have been increasing calls in Montenegro to push ahead with full independence.
SOUNDBITE: (Serbo-Croat)
"I think that future Serbia and Montenegro should be cooperation within the Partnership for Peace and further integration with NATO alliance. That is very logical. You should look at our neighbourhood and you will see that there is no state in our neighbourhood which is either a member of NATO or is on the way to join the NATO. You should think whether it is possible for Serbia and Montenegro to lead any other policy."
SUPER CAPTION: Milo Djukanovic, President of Montenegro
SOUNDBITE: (Serbo-Croat)
"The issue of the legal status must be absolutely verified by the citizens at the referendum. Two models of the referendum are possible by the middle of the next year - the first model being the simultaneous referendum both in Serbia and Montenegro. The condition for that model is that the leaders of both republics reach an agreement on the possible relations between Serbia and Montenegro. If we reach an agreement, I think it is a correct way to offer to the citizens the possibility to verify simultaneously whether they accept the agreement their political leaderships have reached. If we don't reach an agreement, I think it is inevitable that we organize a separate referendum in Montenegro where our citizens would decide whether they want independent Montenegro or some other model of union with Serbia."

Montenegro has an upper middle-income economy and ranks very high in the Human Development Index. It is a member of the United Nations, NATO, the World Trade Organization, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, the Council of Europe, and the Central European Free Trade Agreement. Montenegro is also a founding member of the Union for the Mediterranean, and is currently in the process of joining the European Union.The country's English name derives from Venetian and translates as "Black Mountain", deriving from the appearance of Mount Lovćen when covered in dense evergreen forests. The first written mention of Montenegro in Cyrillic was in the Charter of King Milutin of 1276. In Italian sources, the name of Montenegro was mentioned for the first in its original form Crna Gora in 1348, and in 1379 it is mentioned as Cernagora in the sources from Dubrovnik.
The native name Crna Gora, also meaning "black mountain" or "black hill", was mentioned for the first time in a charter issued by Stefan Milutin. It came to denote the majority of contemporary Montenegro in the 15th century.Originally, it had referred to only a small strip of land under the rule of the Paštrovići tribe, but the name eventually came to be used for the wider mountainous region after the Crnojević noble family took power in Upper Zeta.The aforementioned region became known as Stara Crna Gora 'Old Montenegro' by the 19th century to distinguish the independent region from the neighbouring Ottoman-occupied Montenegrin territory of Brda '(The) Highlands'. Montenegro further increased its size several times by the 20th century, as the result of wars against the Ottoman Empire, which saw the annexation of Old Herzegovina and parts of Metohija and southern Raška. Its borders have changed little since then, losing Metohija and gaining the Bay of Kotor.
After the second session of the AVNOJ during World War II in Yugoslavia, the contemporary modern state of Montenegro was founded as the Federal State of Montenegro (Montenegrin: Савезна држава Црне Горе / Savezna država Crne Gore) on 15 November 1943 within the Yugoslav Federation by the ZAVNOCGB. After the war, Montenegro became a republic under its name, the People's Republic of Montenegro (Montenegrin: Народна Република Црна Гора / Narodna Republika Crna Gora) on 29 November 1945. In 1963, it was renamed to the Socialist Republic of Montenegro (Montenegrin: Социјалистичка Република Црна Гора / Socijalistička Republika Crna Gora). As the breakup of Yugoslavia occurred, the SRCG was renamed to the Republic of Montenegro (Montenegrin: Република Црна Гора / Republika Crna Gora) on 27 April 1992 within the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia by removing the adjective "socialist" from the republic's title. Since 22 October 2007, a year after its independence, the name of the country became simply known as Montenegro.
The state was founded on 27 April 1992 as the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, known as FR Yugoslavia or simply Yugoslavia which comprised the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Montenegro. In February 2003, FR Yugoslavia was transformed from a federal republic to a political union until Montenegro seceded from the union in June 2006, leading to the full independence of both Serbia and Montenegro.

Transcript:
The country of Yugoslavia existed from 1929 until 2003. The capital city of Yugoslavia was Belgrade and it was dominated by Serbia. The most important reason for its collapse was the tension between the Serbs and Croats. Yugoslavia broke into six different nations. On 25 June 1991, Slovenia and Croatia became the first republics to declare independence from Yugoslavia, followed by Macedonia later that year. Bosnia declared it’s independence in 1992 while Montenegro and Serbia split up in 2006. The collapse was complete in 2008 when Kosovo declared it’s independence from Serbia.

The tiny republic of Montenegro - part of former Yugoslavia - has declared itself an off- shore international business zone, with virtually no limits to foreign investment.
The declaration is being seen as a move towards gaining more economic freedom from neighbour and Yugoslav Federation partner, Serbia.
Montenegro's Prime Minister, Milo Djukanovic, says the republic wants to fully normalise its ties with the west.
This is the Adriatic resort of Budva in Montenegro.
This beautiful old seaside town is just one of the places in the tiny republic that stands to benefit from its declaration as an off-shore international business zone.
In the Montenegrin town of Milocer at the weekend, the Montenegrin Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic and other officials from the republic met to officially declare the business zone open.
Montenegro is deeply unhappy with Serbia's reluctance to privatise Yugoslavia's shattered state-run economy or allow the free flow of foreign capital into the country.
The republic stuck with Serbia through the break-up of the former Yugoslavia and has paid dearly through the trade embargo imposed against Yugoslavia in 1992.
Montenegro's aim is to attract more foreign investment through the formation of off-shore companies that would pay minimal taxes of 2.5 percent to the state.
The state won't demand to know the origin of the money invested, which critics say will make Montenegro one of the biggest money-laundering operations in Europe.
Montenegro is hoping foreigners will invest in re-building the republic's road network and modernising its two main airports.
The main area of potential foreign investment is likely to be in tourism and hotels along Montenegro's beautiful, 283 kilometre-long stretch of Adriatic coastline.
But the idea has so angered Serbia that its lawyers have started legal proceedings against Montenegro, arguing that off-shore companies are against Yugoslavia's constitution.
Montenegrin officials have dismissed Serbia's opposition to the project.
SOUNDBITE: (Serbo-Croat)
"The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia will change in the next four-year period in the framework of the existing constitution. We'll try to make a country more democratic and more free than it is now."
SUPER CAPTION: Momir Bulatovic, President of Montenegro
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"The Montenegrin government has provided the framework, I think, which quite a lot of Western countries will want to look at very closely. Tourism is a very obvious one for countries like my own, and they have already started to look at this quite seriously in the relatively short period since the lifting of sanctions."
SUPER CAPTION: Ivor Roberts, British Ambassador to Yugoslavia
One visiting official stressed the importance of Montenegro re-establishing full ties with important money lenders.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"We need to have a good and sophisticated banking system in this country, so we need to be a member of the World Bank and the I-M-F. Because of that we should speed up our efforts to become members of those institutions. I think it's a beautiful idea. We are going to make money."
SUPER CAPTION: Ratko Knezevic, Chief of Montenegrin Trade Mission in Washington
If all goes to plan, the Montenegrin resort of Budva could once again become a thriving seaside town.

After the collapse of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY), the remaining republics of Montenegro and Serbia agreed to the formation of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY) which officially abandoned communism and endorsed democratic institutions. Montenegro was a constituent republic of the FRY until 2003, when the FRY was reconstituted as the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro, from which Montenegro separated in 2006 as an independent country.
