Pera Segedinac
Petar Jovanović (, , 1655 – 4 April 1736), known as Pera Segedinac (, ), was a Habsburg Serb military officer, a captain in Pomorišje. He led a Serb revolt in 1735. What is known about him is that he was a retired officer in the Serbian Militia stationed at Szeged, hence the name "Segedinac". At the age of 80, Captain Pero joined forces with Hungarian peasants revolting against insufferable conditions in Bekes, Csongrád and Zarand counties in 1735. After the revolt, Pero and several Hungarian rebels were captured, tortured, and executed in Buda the following year. Literature Laza Kostić (1841–1910) wrote the play ''Pera Segedinac'' in 1875.

Early life He was born in Vnorovy, Habsburg monarchy, at the beginning of the 17th century. He had a brother, Strahinja. Great Turkish War Background During the Great Turkish War Serbs gave big support to Austrian side. The Ottoman Empire had suffered partial military collapse against the Austrians in the 1680s, most notably at the Battle of Vienna in 1683, and the loss of Belgrade to Maximilian II of Bavaria in 1688 and Bosnia in 1689. However, with the beginning of the Nine Years War in the west, the early 1690s were to see an end to Habsburg conquests in the Balkans and a partial Ottoman recovery.McKay & Scott. ''The Rise of the Great Powers 1648–1815,'' p.75 Despite the Ottoman recovery and weakening of the Habsburg military presence on the Danube (most Hab ...

Austro-Turkish War (1716–1718)
The Austro-Turkish War (1716–1718) was fought between Habsburg monarchy and the Ottoman Empire. The 1699 Treaty of Karlowitz was not an acceptable permanent agreement for the Ottoman Empire. Twelve years after Karlowitz, it began the long-term prospect of taking revenge for its defeat at the Battle of Vienna in 1683. First, the army of Turkish Grand Vizier Baltacı Mehmet defeated Peter the Great's Russian Army in the Russo-Turkish War (1710–1711). Then, during the Ottoman–Venetian War (1714–1718), Ottoman Grand Vizier Damat Ali reconquered the Morea from the Venetians. As the guarantor of the Treaty of Karlowitz, the Austrians threatened the Ottoman Empire, which caused it to declare war in April 1716. On 2 August 1716, the first engagement of the war took place at the Battle of Karlowitz, which resulted in an Ottoman victory. Three days later, Prince Eugene of Savoy defeated the Turks at the Battle of Petrovaradin. The Banat and its capital, Temesvár, ...

People Of The Great Turkish War
The term "the people" refers to the public or common mass of people of a polity. As such it is a concept of human rights law, international law as well as constitutional law, particularly used for claims of popular sovereignty. In contrast, a people is any plurality of persons considered as a whole. Used in politics and law, the term "a people" refers to the collective or community of an ethnic group or nation. Concepts Legal Chapter One, Article One of the Charter of the United Nations states that "peoples" have the right to self-determination. Though the mere status as peoples and the right to self-determination, as for example in the case of Indigenous peoples (''peoples'', as in all groups of indigenous people, not merely all indigenous persons as in ''indigenous people''), does not automatically provide for independent sovereignty and therefore secession. Indeed, judge Ivor Jennings identified the inherent problems in the right of "peoples" to self-determination, as i ...
