Црна Гора и Србија у првих годину дана Великог рата
Montenegro and Serbia in the First Year of the Great War

Summary/Abstract: The paper, with an introduction to the pre-war unification talks, traces the relations between Montenegro and Serbia from the July crisis to the autumn offensive of the Central Powers in the Balkans in October 1915. The mutual ties of the two countries during this period were burdened by the rivalry of the Petrović and Karadjordjević dynasties. Montenegrin King Nicholas often resorted to alternative solutions, behind the back of the Serbian side, with which his country was on a common front. Such a policy in time of war, which required the highest degree of unity, produced serious difficulties for mutual cooperation and distrust of the Great allies towards the old sovereign. The events of the first war year had consequences in the latter events, the way of unification and the dethronement of the Montenegrin ruling family.
