Janko Drašković
Janko Drašković ( Hungarian: ''Draskovich János''; 20 October 1770 – 14 January 1856) was a Croatian politician associated with the beginnings of the 19th-century national revival, the Illyrian movement. He studied law and philosophy before joining the military until he was discharged on medical grounds.

He became a leading figure in the Croatian national revival following the 1832 publication of the ''Dissertation'', a manifesto outlining the main problems Croatia faced in terms of political, cultural, economic, and social development and cohesion. The ''Dissertation'' became largely regarded as the programme of the Croatian national revival ...

Drašković Family
The Drašković, also spelled Draskovich in English, is a prominent Croatian noble family, supposedly descended from an old Croatian noble tribe of Kršelac, Stupić or Poletčić, while others considered the Mogorović family but it is less likely because they had a different coat of arms. History There is no reliable data on the family before the 15th century. The first reliable information is provided by three documents written in Glagolitic alphabet in 1490 (mentioning "35 noblemen of the Drašković family" from 18 families), kept at the Budapest National Archives. In the 15th century, they owned an estate in Donje Zazično (today's Donje Pazarište) in the Buška parish and around Knin in Dalmatia, which is why Bartol, who started the family's noble line, was in a document from 1520, referred to as ''"Kninjanin"'' ("from Knin"). In the first half of the 16th century, due to the Turkish threat, Bartol left Zazično and moved to the Kolpa river valley in Croatia proper. ...
