From iwitnessdestinations.com/montenegro. Cetinje became the capital of Montenegro at the end of the 15th century and remained such until 1946. During the wars of liberation against the Turks it could not expand; it remained practically unchanged around the fortified monastery. The city developed in harmony with the consolidation of the new State of Montenegro: it reached considerable prosperity after the Congress of Berlin.
