Rogami
Rogami ( cyrl, Рогами) was a historical Albanian tribe in the Middle Ages. They inhabited the Brda (Montenegro) area in central and eastern Montenegro, being centered around the region of Piperi. Toponyms related to them can be found in many parts of the region. The name ''Rogami'' is a compound of the Albanian words ''rogë'' (meaning 'clearing') and ''amë'' (meaning 'spring'). It appears in many locations throughout Brda and Malësia. ''Rogame'' is the name of a village of the Piperi, being mentioned since in 1455 (nominally divided into Gornji and Donji Rogami), while ''Rogami'' appears as the name of a mountain in Montenegro. The name ''Roge'' appears as one of the places where the Kuči would hold meetings and gatherings. The neighborhood's of ''Rogami'' in Podgorica, as well as ''Rogame'' in Tuzi Municipality are also linked to the tribe. In the 1416-17 Venetian cadaster of Shkodër the surname ''Rogami'' appears in a few different villages. The village of Martan is ...

Albanian Tribes
The Albanian tribes () form a historical mode of social organization (''farefisní'') in Albania and the southwestern Balkans characterized by a common culture, often common patrilineal kinship ties and shared social ties. The ''fis'' ( sq-definite, fisi; commonly translated as "tribe", also as "clan" or "kin" community) stands at the center of Albanian organization based on kinship relations, a concept that can be found among southern Albanians also with the term ''farë'' ( sq-definite, fara). Inherited from ancient Illyrian social structures, Albanian tribal society emerged in the early Middle Ages as the dominant form of social organization among Albanians. The development of feudalism came to both antagonize it, and slowly integrate aspects of it in Albanian feudal society, as most noble families themselves came from these tribes and depended on their support. This process stopped after the Ottoman conquest of Albania and the Balkans in the late 15th century and was follow ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Piperi (tribe)
Piperi ( cyrl, Пипери) is a historical tribe (''pleme'') of Albanian origin and a region in northeastern Montenegro. Piperi is located between the Morača and Zeta rivers up to the northern suburbs of the Montenegrin capital Podgorica. Origins Originally an Albanian tribe (), the Piperi underwent a process of gradual cultural integration into the neighbouring Slavic population. A Franciscan report of the 17th century illustrates the final stages of their acculturation. Its author writes that the Bratonožići, Piperi, Bjelopavlići and Kuči:"'' nulla di meno essegno quasi tutti del rito serviano, e di lingua Illrica ponno piu presto dirsi Schiavoni, ch' Albanesi ''" (since almost all of them use the Serbian rite and the Illyric (Slavic) language, soon they should be called Slavs, rather than Albanians). Historical research has shown that Piperi is not a tribe (''pleme'') of common patrilineal ancestry. It formed in the period between the mid 15th century and the 16 ...

Middle Ages
In the history of Europe, the Middle Ages or medieval period lasted approximately from the 5th to the late 15th centuries, similarly to the post-classical period of global history. It began with the fall of the Western Roman Empire and transitioned into the Renaissance and the Age of Discovery. The Middle Ages is the middle period of the three traditional divisions of Western history: classical antiquity, the medieval period, and the modern period. The medieval period is itself subdivided into the Early, High, and Late Middle Ages. Population decline, counterurbanisation, the collapse of centralised authority, invasions, and mass migrations of tribes, which had begun in late antiquity, continued into the Early Middle Ages. The large-scale movements of the Migration Period, including various Germanic peoples, formed new kingdoms in what remained of the Western Roman Empire. In the 7th century, North Africa and the Middle East—once part of the Byzantine Empire� ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Slavicisation
Slavicisation or Slavicization, is the acculturation of something non-Slavic into a Slavic culture, cuisine, region, or nation. The process can either be voluntary or applied through varying degrees of pressure. The term can also refer to the historical Slavic migrations to Southeastern Europe which gradually Slavicized large areas previously inhabited by other ethnic peoples. In northern Russia, there was also mass Slavicization of Finnic and Baltic population in the 9th-10th centuries. After historic ethnogenesis and distinct nationalisation, ten main subsets of the process apply in modern times: * Belarusization * Bosniakisation * Bulgarisation * Croatisation * Czechization * Macedonization * Polonization * Russification * Serbianisation * Slovakization * Ukrainization See also * Hellenization * Pan-Slavism Pan-Slavism, a movement that took shape in the mid-19th century, is the political ideology concerned with promoting integrity and unity for the Slavic peopl ...
