In 1657, the Doge of Venice, Bertuccio Valiero, decided to resettled the town Peroj with five families( Brcela, Draković, Brajić, Vučeta, and Ljubotina) from the Cernizza region in Montenegro. Following the Cretan War of 1645–1669, twenty other families originally from Montenegro migrated to Peroj. Today is Peroj a center of the Montenegrins in Istria County.
