Fran Folnegović
Fran Folnegović (17 February 1848 – 18 July 1903) was a Croatian politician. He was a member of the Sabor of the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia elected on the Party of Rights ticket six times. Folnegović became one of the principal members of the party. He persuaded the Party of Rights founder Ante Starčević to end his political retirement and lead the party. Despite criticism from Starčević's nephew David Starčević, David who accused Folnegović of departures from Starčević's uncompromising pursuit of Croatian independence, Folnegović rose to the position of the vice-president of the party's central committee. In practice, he was leading the Party of Rights since Starčević, formally the president, was too ill to effectively lead the party.
