Serbia and Montenegro (Serbian: Србија и Црна Гора, Srbija i Crna Gora, abbreviated as "SCG") was the name of the state union of Serbia and Montenegro. They used to be two separate Yugoslav republics, and since 2006, have been separate countries.
It was on the west-central Balkan Peninsula, bordering Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia on the western sides, Hungary to the north, Romania and Bulgaria to the east, the Republic of Macedonia to the south and Albania to the southwest, with just over 200 km of access to the Adriatic.
Serbia and Montenegro cooperated in only some political areas. The states had separate economic policies and currencies.
