Rasovi (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Rasovi (poglavice, knezovi) was the unofficial name given originally to five extremely influential Usta e who returned from exile to Zagreb in April 1941 with their leader Ante Paveli . They were Eugen Kvaternik, Ante Moskov, Vilko Pe nikar, Ivo Heren i and Erih Lisak. When Paveli became leader (Poglavnik) of the Independent State of Croatia (Croatian: Nezavisna Dr ava Hrvatska, NDH) they retained his respect and trust as fellow migr s, and he appointed them to senior government positions in which they were able to operate with extensive autonomy. Later Eugen Kvaternik sided with his father Slavko Kvaternik in a conflict with Paveli and fell into disfavour. The "Rasovi" were thus reduced to four, who were then joined by three powerful Usta a colonels - Vjekoslav "Maks" Luburi, Vjekoslav Servatzy and Rafael Boban.
