'''Lovćen''' ({{lang-cyrlcnr-Cyrl| Ловћен}}, {{IPA-|sh|lôːʋtɕenlôːftɕen|pron}}) is a mountain and [[national park]] in southwestern [[Montenegro]]. It is the inspiration behind the names ''Montenegro'' and ''Crna Gora'', both of which mean "'Black Mountain"' and refer to the appearance of Mount Lovćen when covered in dense forests.<ref name="visit-montenegro">{{cite web |title=Montenegro History – Part I |url=https://www.visit-montenegro.com/montenegro/history/ |website=visit-montenegro.com |access-date=27 June 2018}}</ref>
