In 1904, Montenegro declared war on Japan, the country that was nine thousand kilometers away from Cetina, the Montenegrin capital. Unbelievable, but true! The Montenegrins declared war on Japan to support the Slavic brotherhood, namely Russia, which had entered the war with the Japanese. In this war Japan defeated Russia spectacularly and the Russians signed the capitulation and the war ended.
But Japan did not sign a peace agreement with Montenegro until 2008. So, since then, for 104 consecutive years, these two countries have been at war. This has been the most interesting fight in history. It has lasted so long and there has been no military confrontation. As a result, no fatality was recorded. So it was a war that existed only on paper.
This war was not like this because Japan could not find Montenegro on the map to bomb it (as Barsoleta says), but also because it was not a serious business. But when Montenegro declared independence and sought to establish relations with Japan, Japanese jurists said there was a problem: Japan was at war with Montenegro. Therefore, in 2008, the peace agreement between these two countries was signed in Podgorica.
There is another wonder. In Montenegro there is a village named Japan, located in the municipality of Andrijevica. There are many theories that explain how this mountain village got its name, but none seem to be correct. A variant has to do with the case when King Nikola decorated Samilo Fatiq, the chieftain of this village, for bravery. Bajraktari had asked the county to build a water supply system for the village because it was suffering from water.
'Where is this village?' - the king had asked him.
'It is very far, like here in Japan' - answered the captain Fatiq.
However, the village of Japan has recently attracted interest. It is said that some Japanese have visited it, even journalists from this country.
Even so, it is not bad to popularize the country.
