Bojana River and Skadar Lake were regarded as an important places at each period of the history. That region,was occupied by the Ottoman Empire in XIVth century. The lake and The river were dominated by the Ottoman Empire until the treaty of Berlin which was signed after The War Russian-Ottoman in 1877-1878. The Bojana River and The Skadar Lake became border between Ottoman and Montenegro where became independent after the treaty of Berlin. After that ,lots of competition started between Ottoman and Montenegro.. These problems were the border, smuggling, trading etc. which were attempted to resolve. The cleaning of the Bojana River was one of the most important problem between The Ottoman Empire and The Montenegro .Water of The Bojana River flowed into The Skadar Lake and around The Lake flooded when it was rain.After the rain, it was swamp around the lake so it was necessary to clen-up. The Skadar Lake would became farmland with cleaning the environment of the lake . Because Montenegro had a large part of The Lake, it had been given importance to clean-up these areas.The Ottoman didn‟t lean towards this issue. Cleaning the environment of Skadar Lake had been subject to a lot of correspondence but it could not have a conclusion in many years. Also, The Ottoman Empire and The Montenegro State had been competition in the trade around The Skadar Lake and Bojana River.Montenegrin State h aimed to be more effective on The Lake and The River so, it cooperated with the governments of Austria,Italy etc.The Ottoman Empire was suffering from this collaboration because it did not want to see The Strong Europen States on this region. That thesis is about the Otttoman Empire‟s economic,social and political activities in The Bojana River and Skadar Lake . I hope this thesis will contribute to a better understanding of the region‟s history.
