Why this record matters
The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as montenegrin politician (1867–1936). Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The entry’s evidential value lies in the named roles, institutions and publications that can be tested against primary documentation. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 27, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q4298572. VIAF identifies the subject as 309662229. The Library of Congress control number is nb2017001763. 2 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1867, 1936, 1903 and 1905.
Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
