Background[]
The following is taken from Wikipedia which is licensed under CC-BY-SA 4.0. You can view the article it was taken from here.
The Princedom of Duklja, or plainly Duklja, was a medieval South Slavic state which roughly encompassed the territories of modern-day southeastern Montenegro, from the Bay of Kotor in the west to the Bojana river in the east, and to the sources of the Zeta and Morača rivers in the north.

First mentioned in 10th– and 11th century Byzantine chronicles, it was a vassal of the Byzantine Empire until it became independent in 1040 under Stefan Vojislav (fl. 1034–43) who rose up and managed to take over territories of the earlier Serbian Principality, founding the Vojislavljević dynasty. Between 1043 and 1080, under Mihailo Vojislavljević (r. 1050–81), and his son, Constantine Bodin (r. 1081–1101), Duklja saw its apogee. Mihailo was given the nominal title King of Slavs by the Pope after having left the Byzantine camp and supported an uprising in the Balkans, in which his son Bodin played a central part. Having incorporated the Serbian hinterland (the core of the earlier Serbian Principality, known as Raška) and installed vassal rulers there, this maritime principality emerged as the most powerful Serb polity, seen in the titles used by its rulers ("Prince of Serbia", "of Serbs"). However, its rise was short-lived, as Bodin was defeated by the Byzantines and imprisoned; pushed to the background, his relative and vassal Vukan became independent in Raška, which continued the fight against the Byzantines while Duklja was struck with civil wars. Between 1113 and 1149 Duklja was the centre of Serbian–Byzantine conflict, with members of the Vojislavljević as protégés of either fighting each other for power. Duklja was then incorporated as a crown land of the Grand Principality of Serbia ruled by the Vukanović dynasty, subsequently known as Zeta, remaining so until the fall of the Serbian Empire in the 14th century. |

Strategy[]
To form the Princedom of Duklja you will first need to select Montenegro to play as.
If Bosnia isn't a player
- Firstly justify on Bosnia.
- You will have around 50,000 manpower available which you will spend on making infantry.
- When the infantry and the justification is done you will declare on Bosnia.
- Send your troops to a city that isn't guarded by the AI guards. When you occupy the city the AI will send its troops to take over your infantry. When the AI troops die send your troops to occupy the capital of Bosnia (Sarajevo). Once you occupy Sarajevo you can split your troops and auto-capture the rest of Bosnia.
- Once all your troops occupied Bosnia you will send terms to the AI which will Annex cities.
- When you annex Bosnia you can finally form the Princedom of Duklja.
If Bosnia is a player
- Firstly make 1 electronic factory.
- While your Electronic factory is in the queue get Massed Attack and get Factory output 2.
- Once the electronics are done sell them to AI nations with high populations but only 5 each.
- The moment you have sold the Electronics make troops with your manpower queue and justify on Albania.
- When the justification is done you will declare on Albania and send your troops to occupy one city which isn't guarded by the country's Home guards. When the AI troops die you will occupy the capital of Albania first (Tirana). Once Tirana is occupied you can auto capture the rest of Albania.
- When you have Peace Albania u can start preparing to invade Bosnia. I would recommend going Socialism if you have enough political power.
- Because of the lack of square cities, you will need to spam infantry. I would also recommend getting a few units of artillery.
- While you are making infantry you should make generals and go down the infantry technology.
- When you have around 200,000 infantry you should be prepared to declare on Bosnia.
- if Bosnia has allies that are stronger than you I would recommend trying to make them break ties with Bosnia. If they don't accept your offer to break ties with Bosnia you can still try to fight Bosnia.
- Once the justification is prepared and you feel ready you can declare on Bosnia.
- If you manage to win against Bosnia you can peace them.
- Once you have annexed the whole of Bosnia you can form the Princedom of Duklja.
This is a strategy that isn't guaranteed to work all the time because we can't know what will happen in a game of Rise of Nations.
