Countries in my Mission: Montenegro; Part 3.

Montenegro.





There isn't much to tell about Montenegro. They split off from Serbia in 2006, like I said in my last blog. Right now the biggest income for the country is tourism. It was declared as the fastest growing tourism attraction in 2004.




The government in a Parliamentary Republic. For those that don't know what a Parliamentary Republic is, it is basically what England has. You have a parliament and then a prime minister.




Sports, the biggest sports are waterpolo and soccer. Since their soccer teams are now Serbian teams, they don't have any soccer teams. They are trying to create new one but so far not much luck. So there you have it.




It looks like it is really beautiful over there. Just look for yourself.

I am actually jealous of you and your mission. It looks really neat! The language will be a struggle, and you'll do fine with that if you study. And you'll get to love the people. It is a beautiful mission that not many people in the US get to see. You'll come back a man, a cultured man!
