 The Chapel of Petar II Petrovic Njegos
Petar II died in October 1851 and was buried firstly in the monastery of Cetinje because of fear that Turks could decapitate his body.
The Oath Chapel of Petar II was rebuilt in September 1925 by King Aleksandar Karadjordjevic, but after the victory of Yugoslav communists in WW2 and their political proclamation of separate "Montenegrin ethnicity" ("Montenegrin nation") in 1945, the main policy in Montenegro started to be the clash with Montenegrin glorious Serb past.
Therefore, the Chapel of Petar II Petrovic Njegos was razed to the ground and replaced in 1974 with the pagan building known as the Njegos Mausoleum.

Petar Petrovic Njegos (1813-1851), the Bishop and ruler of Montenegro, embraced the entire epoch in his poetic development - from folk poetry, through the aspirations of Classicism, up to Romanticism.
Njegos created a new poetic form, based on the folk song, combining it with the tradition of European poetry from Homer to Romanticism, and including the experience of contemporary Serbian poets, most notably that of his teacher, Milutinovic.
He was called the "Njegos of prose" because, similar to the great poet, he depicted national history and "the way of living, thinking, and conversing" of the people from his region, using forms of oral tradition and the style of "folk eloquence".

 Petar II Petrovic Njegos Biography / Biography of Petar II Petrovic Njegos Biography Biography
Petar II Petrovic Njegos stands in Serbian literature rather as William Shakespeare does in English.
Njegos grew up with the trochaic line of the folk epic that Vuk Karadzic had popularized in his collections as the natural line of the Serbian language, and he developed it into an artistic expression that could not be carried further, only imitated and parodied.
In this sense Njegos came close to what T. Eliot defined as a "classic." After Njegos, Serbian poetry gradually moved away from the folk decasyllabic line (the deseterac), for he had taken it to its maximum of expression.

 The Serbian Revolution and Albanians
Montenegro's ruler, Bishop Petar Petrovic-Njegos I was not enthusiastic about Milos' dealings with Bushatlija, for obvious reasons: the latter's claim to being a Crnojevic descendant would give him some title to Montenegrin lands as well.
Njegos had no love for his Muslimized Slav brothers and approved of the Christmas Eve massacre of the converted Montenegrins mentioned previously.
When asked what he would do if his dream was realized in his lifetime, the bishop said wistfully: "In that case I would go to my patriarchate in Pec and Serbian Prince Mihailo to Prizren" (the priest to the see of the Serbian spiritual leader, the secular ruler to the city of Dusan).
