yeah 
hey even the turks were christian before meeting the arabs.
As to what it is, I could try and explain but with care, don't take every word for granted.
The two heads on the eagle were the borders of west and east that needed guarding. that's why the eagle looks so pissed looking to both directions. the round ball with the cross on it signifies the authority of the church (it is actually a holy artifact in orthodoxc religion), the sword on the other hand signifies the power of the emperor. both signify the duality of authority in the empire (emperor/patriarch).
as for that monestary in Crete, the double headed eagle is one of the symbols of orthodoxy.

What constitutes the Montengrine ethnicity? They have no language of their own and by their religion should easily compare to their neighbours.
If they're muslims, they're Bosnians or Albanians. If they're Catholics, they're Croatians. If they're Orthodox, they're Serbs. Why make them a nation of their own?

Did Texas join the US voluntarily in face of the Mexican threat or were they simply annexed by the stronger nation?

An American national identity outside of the east coast in the 1830s? Un-possible.

Which cities were they produced in then? How could Mexico occupy their territory without declaring war to the US beforehand?

Albanian language is not the same as Bosnian, Serbian, and Croatian.
Anyway, they say that language is a dialect that has army.
If they think they have their own language (and perhaps they do, Croatian girls I've lived with were absolutely sure Croatian and Serbian are separate languages), if they have centuries of separate history... why force them?
Austria is something different, for its separation from Germany is a matter of XIX century. Until then, it was simply the leadning German state, imo

He's around 20 and studying, don't know about his Christian-ness though.
edit: he's even older than me so I have no clue what you're getting at. I know he acts like 14 though.
