The family tree can be reached back to 1536.[2] According to tradition, the family descended from Vojin, the grandson of Serbian king Stefan Dečanski (r. 1321–32).[3] The family moved to the Bay of Kotor from Herzegovina in 1692, fleeing Ottoman terror,[3] settling in Herceg Novi, which was taken over by the Republic of Venice after the 1689–92 battles of the Morean War.[4] The Republic of Venice recognized their nobility status and coat of arms after 1771, Austria in 1815 (along with other para-nobility of Dalmatia and the Bay of Kotor).[3] Upon receiving noble status, the family adopted the coat of arms of Serbian magnate Nikola Altomanović (fl. 1359–76) as displayed in the Il regno di Slavi of Mavro Orbini (1563–1614).[3]

From the end of the 17th- to the 19th-century members of the family emigrated to Austria, Italy, Hungary and Russia.[4] Marko Vojnović (1732–1807) founded the Black Sea Fleet of the Imperial Russian Navy.[5] Jovan V. Vojnović (fl. 1772–82) was a Russian admiral and general consul in the Greek archipelago.[4] Aleksandar V. Vojnović was a Russian cavalry general.[2]

gollark: As in, what caused me to make that inference or what do I think the cause of the issue was?
gollark: Good news: the IP is right. Bad news: either I am now behind CGNAT or the router thing is wrong.
gollark: The cursor is slightly jittery and it may be taking as much as 100ms to do things.
gollark: A hilariously slow one, admittedly.
gollark: HA. My incredibly janky method worked and I have a terminal open on the server.
