1. The average IQ in Montenegro is 115, higher than anywhere else in Europe.
2. Montenegro means Black Mountain. In America, newspapers' automated editing often leads to the non-PC word Negro being replaced. The leads to strange football results such as recently seen in the Baltimore Sun where Poland played Monte African-American
3. Duelling is still legal in Montenegro but only under strict supervision which means there have only been four deaths since independence.
4. OK is a huge insult in Montenegro and often leads to misunderstandings especially with Americans. Colin Powell, the General not the winger turned groundsman, had to apologise to the Montenegrin president's wife on live TV after an incident in 1999.

In 1997, the country's first ever entry into the Eurovision Song Contest was made by a group calling themselves Mont Enegro after the hill. The group featured a pair of unusually fat men (some reported them to be twins) dressed in lederhosen. The corpulent couple spent the whole of the song time bending over with lighted torches sending plumes of scorching flatulence into the air to to the rhythmic throb of a Moog synthesiser. Perhaps unsurprisingly, they scored nul points.
