| Wikipedia: Duklja (358 words) |
 | Duklja (Latin: Doclea or Dioclea, after the town of Dioclea) was a small medieval state located in today's Montenegro and northern Albania including the city of Skadar. |
| One of the famous mentions of Duklja is the historical document known as Presbyter Diocleas: Libellus Gothorum or Ljetopis popa Dukljanina or Barski rodoslov which was written by a priest from Dioclea (Bar) around 1180-1196 and which includes valuable information about these and related territories. |
| Duklja was populated by Christians of the Latin Rite and was initially usually under the suzerainty of the Byzantium or of Bulgaria up to the 11th century when the dukes of Duklja started having noticable success in their struggle for independence. |
