Nicholas I of Montenegro
(redirected from Nicholas of Montenegro)

    Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Nicholas I of Montenegro (1841–1921)

King of Montenegro 1910–1918. He was proclaimed prince after the assassination of his uncle, Prince Danilo I, in 1860. Montenegrin independence was recognized in 1878, and in 1900 Nicholas took the title of ‘royal highness’. Ten years later he styled himself king. He joined in World War I on the side of Serbia, but by 1916 he had capitulated. He retired to France, where he died.

The Montenegrin Grand Assembly in April 1919 affirmed his dethronement and that of his dynasty, and proclaimed the union of Montenegro with the Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, headed by Serbian Peter Karageorgevic (Peter I).
