My least favourite leaders in this group out in the same round!
Nikola Spiric - he is not the real leader of Bosnia
And his name is spelled wrongly - it should be either Špirić or Shpirich.

Or you can understand that using a basic Australian keyboard and knowledge of slavic pronunciations, 'Spiric' is pronounced as 'Shpirich' Smiley

(my boyfriend (?) is the Serbian 'Nedeljkovic' Smiley)

No, when transliterating Slavic languages it's incorrect to use s for š, because there is a phoneme s. You are confusing it with Hungarian.

While I know you are a Slavic expert in forum terms, I can assure you that the Australian standard is as I stated (and also that Nedeljkovic is a Serbian surname, even if it doesn't make the list on wikipedia Smiley Here is the Cyrillic version of a famous person with the same surname: Силвија Недељковић)

The de facto standard is the official standard minus the diacritics. (shrugs)

It doesn't. Which is of course a little annoying.

I used to read a friend's name as Skvorć for years until I was made to understand it's actually
Škvorc.

Sali Berisha, I guess. This will be the first one where we need to sacrifice OK-to-good leaders.

In my world, Berisha was such a bad leader, he got overthrown in an armed revolution. How did he do in your world?

I'll vote for Bartemeu just to keep things remotely interesting. And also Berisha doesn't seem THAT bad.

Berisha is more pathetic than evil and insidious. His country got so deep in pyramid schemes that after they all collapsed there was a massive rebellion against his group. And the rebels basically won too and ousted his government. They needed UN peacekeepers to come in. Which is even more pathetic considering they weren't a unified group and had no real goal. That's the equivalent of some city's mayor and municipal government getting ousted by a bunch of drunk rioting college kids or sports fans or whatever and requiring the national guard to restore order.
