"Black Mountain People") are a South Slavic ethnic group that share a common Montenegrin culture, history, and language, identified with the country of Montenegro.

Demographic History Of Vojvodina
Vojvodina's demographic history reflects its rich history and its former location at the border of the Ottoman and Habsburg empires and at the confluence of various peoples, making it a hotbed of invasion, colonization, and assimilation processes. Currently there are more than 25 ethnic groups living in Vojvodina and six official languages. Demographic history The area of Vojvodina had been inhabited since the Paleolithic period.

Romani People In Serbia
Romani people, or Roma ( sr, Роми, Romi), are the third largest ethnic group in Serbia, numbering 147,604 (2.1%) according to the 2011 census. However, due to a legacy of poor birth registration and some other factors, this official number is likely underestimated. Estimates that correct for undercounting suggest that Serbia is one of countries with the most significant populations of Roma people in Europe at 250,000-500,000. Anywhere between 46,000 to 97,000 Roma are internally displaced from Kosovo after 1999. Another name used for the community is ''Cigani'' ( sr-Cyrl, Цигани). They are divided into numerous subgroups, with different, although related, Romani dialects and history. Subgroups Main sub-groups include "Turkish Gypsies" (''Turski Cigani''), "White Gypsies" (''Beli Cigani''), "Wallachian Gypsies" (''Vlaški Cigani'') and "Hungarian Gypsies" (''Mađarski Cigani''), as studied by scholar Tihomir Đorđević (1868–1944). *Wallachian Roma.
