Duklja, poznata i kao Zeta, bila je prva srpska država na teritoriji današnje Crne Gore i imala je ključnu ulogu u oblikovanju istorijskog i kulturnog identiteta regiona.
Duklja se prvi put spominje u izvorima iz 10. veka, a njen uspon kao značajne kneževine vezuje se za vladavinu kneza Jovana Vladimira, koji je vladao krajem 10. i početkom 11. veka. Jovan Vladimir je postao poznat po svojoj hrabrosti i mudrosti, ali i po tragičnoj sudbini. Prema legendi, bio je zarobljen od strane bugarskog cara Samuila, ali se zaljubio u carevu ćerku Kosaru, koja ga je kasnije oslobodila. Nažalost, Jovan Vladimir je ubijen u zaveri, a njegov kult je nastavio da živi kroz vekove, te je kanonizovan kao svetac.
Nakon smrti Jovana Vladimira, Duklja je nastavila da se razvija pod vladavinom dinastije Vojislavljevića. Vojislavljevići su uspeli da konsoliduju vlast i prošire teritoriju kneževine, čime su Duklju učinili značajnim političkim i vojnim faktorom na Balkanu. Najistaknutiji vladar iz ove dinastije bio je knez Mihailo Vojislavljević, koji je vladao od 1046. do 1081. godine. Mihailo je uspeo da osigura nezavisnost Duklje od Vizantije i dobije priznanje od pape Grgura VII, što je dodatno učvrstilo međunarodni položaj kneževine.
Pod vladavinom Mihailovog sina, kralja Bodina, Duklja je dostigla svoj vrhunac. Bodin je proširio teritoriju kneževine, uključujući delove današnje Albanije i Srbije, i uspostavio jake veze sa susednim državama. Međutim, nakon Bodinove smrti, Duklja je počela da slabi zbog unutrašnjih sukoba i spoljnih pritisaka, što je dovelo do njenog postepenog opadanja.
U 12. veku, Duklja je pala pod vlast Raške, čime je izgubila svoju nezavisnost, ali je ostala važan deo srpske države. Iako je kneževina Duklja prestala da postoji kao samostalna politička jedinica, njeno nasleđe je nastavilo da živi kroz kulturne i istorijske tradicije Crne Gore. Duklja je bila kolijevka crnogorske državnosti i simbol borbe za slobodu i nezavisnost, što je ostavilo dubok trag u kolektivnom sećanju naroda.

Duklja, also known as Zeta, was the first Serbian state located in present-day Montenegro and played a crucial role in shaping the region's historical and cultural identity.
Duklja is first mentioned in sources from the 10th century, with its rise as a significant principality linked to the reign of Prince Jovan Vladimir, who governed during the late 10th and early 11th centuries. Jovan Vladimir became renowned for his bravery and wisdom, as well as for his tragic fate. According to legend, he was captured by the Bulgarian Tsar Samuil but fell in love with the tsar's daughter, Kosara, who later freed him. Unfortunately, Jovan Vladimir was ultimately killed in a conspiracy, but his legacy endured through the centuries, and he was eventually canonized as a saint.
After Jovan Vladimir's death, Duklja continued to flourish under the rule of the Vojislavljević dynasty. This family successfully consolidated power and expanded the principality's territory, establishing Duklja as a significant political and military force in the Balkans. The most notable ruler from this dynasty was Prince Mihailo Vojislavljević, who reigned from 1046 to 1081. Mihailo succeeded in securing Duklja's independence from Byzantium and gained recognition from Pope Gregory VII, further enhancing the principality's international standing.
Under the rule of Mihailo's son, King Bodin, Duklja reached its zenith. Bodin expanded the principality's territory to include parts of present-day Albania and Serbia and established strong ties with neighboring states. However, following Bodin's death, Duklja began to weaken due to internal conflicts and external pressures, leading to its gradual decline.
In the 12th century, Duklja fell under the control of Raška, losing its independence but remaining an important part of the Serbian state. Although the principality of Duklja ceased to exist as an independent political entity, its legacy continued through the cultural and historical traditions of Montenegro. Duklja was the cradle of Montenegrin statehood and a symbol of the struggle for freedom and independence, leaving a profound mark on the collective memory of the people.
