Danilo Petrovic-Njegos

    0.02 sec.
Danilo Petrović-Njegoš 

(Danilo 1). Born about 1670, in the village of Njegusi, Montenegro; died Jan. 11, 1735, in the monastery Podmajne, in Njegusi.

He became prince-bishop of Montenegro in 1697 and founded the Njegos dynasty. Trying to liquidate tribal separatism, he created in 1713 a legal body consisting of 12 tribal elders. During his administration, in 1711, Montenegro established relations with Russia for the first time. In 1711 it supported Russia militarily in the Russo-Turkish War of 1710–13. He made a trip to St. Petersburg that aided the strengthening of relations between Montenegro and Russia.
