The article is devoted to a dif cult period in the history of Montenegro after the Congress of Berlin of 1878, when the young Balkan state was of cially recognised an independent from the Ottoman Empire. Montenegro sought, rst of all with the help of its faithful patron Russia, the implementation of the peace treaty articles concerning border demarcation between the Principality and Turkey. Due to the Turkish unwillingness to transfer the territories established by the agreement to Montenegro, this process turned out to be rather complicated, and eventually it дштпукув on for several years and was accompanied by recurrent military clashes. All these plots were described in detail in «Niva», an illustrated magazine published in Saint Petersburg, very popular in Russia at the time.
