Summary/Abstract: Montenegrins had raised the flag of rebellion against the political authority many times since they came under Ottoman rule. One of the most important of these was the rebellion led by Kucuk Istefan (Stefan Mali), whom they declared king before the 1768-1774 Ottoman-Russian War. This rebellion in Montenegro was suppressed with a successful expedition carried out by the Governor of Bosnia, Silahdar Mehmed Pasha, and the Governor of Rumelia, Nişli Mehmed Pasha. The focus of this study is on the Governor of Bosnia, Silahdar Mehmed Pasha, and the rebellion that broke outin 1768. In this study, the beginning and development of the rebellion, the logistical preparations of the Bosnian branch of the expedition organized, the Bosnian forces dispatched to the region, the expedition, and the developments that took place afterward are discussed in detail.
