Montenegro formed part of the Sclavonic empire of Servia, which, having attained during the fourteenth century « Momentary grandeur under the reign of Taar Dushan, was overthrown by the Turks in 1389, when the Servian mou- arch, Lazar, was defeated and perished at the battle of Kopovepole, From that time, Montenegro, with a part of the adjacent coumtry, waa ruled by princes of the family Chernoyevieh, descendants of a sou in lav of the unfortu- nate Servian monarch whose tragical exd we have noticed, ‘The inbabitants of Montencgro lived alternately in bos- tility and temporary submission to the Turks; their his tory, contained in tradition and popular songs, ia full of romaxce, by which the truth is somewhat obscured.
