The Montenegrins of Serbia are a national minority in the republic. Over 267,000 Serbs in Serbia have Montenegrin citizenship and the line between Montenegrin Serbs and Montenegrins is fluid, with members of the same family frequently opting for different identities. Most see no contradiction in being Montenegrin and Serb, with the former identity viewed by them as being a subset of the latter. According to the latest (2011) census in Serbia, there are 38,527 (0.54%)[1] ethnic Montenegrins in Serbia.
