Abstract
This paper deals with the demographic and historical development of Montenegro population from the first Ottoman census in 1497 to the census statistics in 2003. For the reconstruction of these demographic processes the following scientific methods were used: applied (progressive) method, descriptive method, classification method, historical method, induction and deduction, statistical method, the method of analysis, synthesis and generalizations. The analyzed demographic statistical data are correlated with physical reality and provide a causal explanation of certain historical events. Also, special emphasis is laid on the influence of past events and contemporary demographic trends on the transformation of this area. Unfavourable socio-economic developments and frequent wars on the Montenegrin territory have had a strong impact on the demographic development. The paper is accompanied by a graphic attachments (graphs, thematic maps, photos) and tables which greatly facilitate the understanding of the presented research results and further explicate the diversity of the demographic development of certain areas. The conclusions are based on the analysis and interpretation of various demographic statistical data and research results.
