Region
Central Montenegro is one of the three statistical regions of the country. It includes the capital Podgorica and the historic capital Cetinje, and lies between the northern and coastal regions.
Its main lake is Lake Skadar, the largest in the Balkans. Around Nikšić lie the connected reservoirs Slano, Krupac and Vrtac, built for the Perućica power plant, and, on the border with Bosnia, Bileća Lake.
