Serbia and Montenegro is situated in South-East Europe with the capital city of Blegrade, on the Balkan peninsula with access to the nice beaches on the Adriatic Sea . Serbia and Montenegro covers a territory of 102,173 sq. km altogether.
Serbia and Montenegro is a nice place to vist if you want to see lots of history and culture (despite the ongoing tension between the minority Serbs and Albanian Kosovars in Kosovo).
