Milo Matanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Мило Матановић; 1871–1955)[1] was a Serbian brigadier who formed a new government in Montenegro at the behest of King Nicholas I of Montenegro during World War I,[2] but all to no avail.[3][vague] In Serbian historiography, Matanović is a patriotic figure.[2][4] He also served as Minister of Defence and Minister of Interior of Kingdom of Montenegro from 1915 to 1917 before becoming president in 1917, but ultimately through political pressure was forced to resign.[5]
