| POI BRIEF DESCRIPTION | |
| Description of the POI | Eugen Kvaternik was a Croatian revolutionary, politician and one of the founders of the Party of Rights, alongside Ante Starčević. Kvaternik was the leader of the 1871 Rakovica Revolt which was an attempt to create an independent Croatian state, at the time when it was part of Austria-Hungary. A patriot who had long aspired to detach Croatia from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, found enough traction to give it a go during the late 19th century’s rise of swirling nationalist rivalries. In order to get foreign support for his cause Kvaternik visited the Russian Empire, France and the Kingdom of Sardinia. He was also well known for anti-Austro-Hungarian speeches that he made as a member of the Croatian Parliament. On October 11th 1871, Eugen Kvaternik, and a number of companions were killed as rebels. His Rakovica Revolt, named after the village where Kvaternik announced the Croatian People’s Republic on October 7, 1871, was speedily crushed. |
