Podgorica (/ˈpɒdɡəriːtsə/ POD-gorr-ee-tsə;Montenegrin/Serbian: Podgorica / Подгорица [pǒdgoritsa], lit. "under the small hill") is the capital and largest city of Montenegro.
Podgorica's favourable position at the confluence of the Ribnica and Morača rivers and the meeting point of the fertile Zeta Plain and Bjelopavlići Valley has encouraged settlement. The city is close to winter ski centres in the north and seaside resorts on the Adriatic Sea.
A census in 2011 put the city's population at 150,977. The Podgorica municipality contains 10.4% of Montenegro's territory and 29.9% of its population. It is the administrative centre of Montenegro and its economic, cultural and educational focus.
The name Podgorica means "under the Gorica" in Montenegrin language. Gorica (meaning "little hill" or hillock) is the name of the cypress-covered hill that overlooks the city centre.
Some three kilometres (1.9 miles) north-west of Podgorica lie the ruins of Doclea, a town known in Greek, pre-Roman and Roman times. The Roman Emperor Diocletian came from this region. In later centuries, Romans "corrected" the name to Dioclea, guessing wrongly that an "i" had been lost in vulgar speech. "Duklja" is the later (Slavic) version of that word.

"Perspektiva": Prva epizoda – Podgorica
My skin is naked, my skin is virgin
My skin is white, white lake the snow
Only some pimples and a big fat wart
Oh tattoed man I adore you so
You're passing by, an eagle on your back
Swords cross your chest and snakes around your arm
I'm afraid of blood and pain
My naked skin drives me insane
You're standing here, a dragon signed your calf
Hell what a shame! I'm a tattooed coward man
Fear! Fear! Fear of tattoos!
Fear! Fear! Fear of tattoos!
Fear! Fear! Fear of tattoos!
You are so cool, tongues of fire lick your leg
I want a skull and spiders on my neck
I'm afraid of blood and pain
My naked skin drives me insane
I love tattoos but I can't stand this hell
Needles of horror, I am a tattoo whimp
You're standing here, a dragon signed your calf
Hell what a shame! I'm a tattooed coward man
I'm afraid of blood and pain
My naked skin drives me insane
I love tattoos but I can't stand this hell
Needles of horror, I am a tattoo whimp
My skin is naked, my skin is virgin
My skin is white, white lake the snow
Only some pimples and a big fat wart
