'''The Balkan World According to Wikipedia''':
According to Wikipedia if a Commander happens to lose 100 000 POWs after WW2, it is not that important. Sixty years latter it was established that they were murdered and place in old mine shafts, caves and forrests. The information is not to be mention in his biography as it is irrelevant.

After the war ended POWs who did not surrender were slaughter on mass, estimates are about 100 000 victims in total.
*'''Encyclopaedia Britannica'''-The article is written post ''Berlin Wall'' but it's thin in terms of information, but does not hold back on economic realities: ''"At his death, the state treasury was '''empty.'''"''
The Wiki article has Encyclopaedia Britannica under its ''Notes'' section as it's source, it might be just cosmetic.
*'''BBC''' UK/History by Tim Judah: ''"The economy was built on the shaky foundations of massive western loans."'' The article is also written in the post '''Berlin Wall''' world. The Wiki article '''does not''' have the [[BBC]] as it's '''source'''.
*'''Tim Judah''' is a front line reporter for The Economist and author. A graduate of the London School of Economics and of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University he worked for the BBC before becoming the Balkans correspondent for The Times and The Economist. Judah is also the author of the prizewinning The Serbs: History, Myth and the Destruction of Yugoslavia, published in 1997 by Yale University Press.
