Montenegro, formerly a republic in Yugoslavia known as Crna Gora, became an independent country in 2006 after separating from a union with Serbia through a referendum vote. The culture of Montenegro is rich and complex with connections to Slavonic, Italian, and Albanian folk cultures and their vernacular architectural expressions.
The country has two pronounced landscapes (the rocky coast of the Adriatic Karst and the mountains of the Dinaric Alps) that are important factors in the development of the different types of vernacular architecture still found.
