Sava II Petrović-Njegoš
Sava II Petrović Njegoš (18 January 1702 - 9 March 1782) (Serbian Cyrillic: Сава II Петровић Његош, "Sava Petrović Njegoš") was the Vladika (Prince-Bishop) of Montenegro, of the Petrović-Njegoš Dynasty. He succeeded Danilo I as Vladika (prince-bishop) in 1735.
In 1766 the Serb Patriarchate of Peć was banned by the Turks (the Greek clergy also applied pressure in this matter). Sava II then responded by writing to the Moscow Metropolitan that "the Serb Nation is under hard slavery" and so asked the Holy Synod of Russia to help the Serbian Patriarch. Sava also wrote a letter to the Russian empress asking "Protect the Serbs from the Greek and Turkish intruding..." "...We are ready to pay Russia in blood". He was succeeded as Vladika by Petar I Petrović-Njegoš.
