Nikola Pašić (Serbian Cyrillic: Никола Пашић, Serbian pronunciation: [nǐkola pâʃit͡ɕ]; 18 December 1845 – 10 December 1926) was a Serbian and Yugoslav politician and diplomat who was the most important Serbian political figure for almost 40 years, the leader of the People's Radical Party who, among other posts, was twice a mayor of Belgrade (1890–91 and 1897) several times Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Serbia (1891–92, 1904–05, 1906–08, 1909–11, 1912–18) and Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia (1918, 1921–24, 1924–26.)
He was an important politician in the Balkans, who, together with his counterparts like Eleftherios Venizelos in Greece, managed to strengthen their small, still emerging national states against strong foreign influences, most notably those of Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire and the Russian Empire.
Pašić (Никола П. Пашић) was born in Zaječar, Principality of Serbia. According to Slovenian ethnologist Niko Zupančič, Pašić's ancestors migrated from the Tetovo region in the 16th century and founded the village of Zvezdan near Zaječar. Pašić himself said that his ancestors settled from the area of the Lešok Monastery in Tetovo.Jovan Dučić concluded that Pašić hailed from Izvor near Zaječar, and that Pašić's ancestry in Tetovo had been long lost; Bulgarians switched this, saying that he hailed from Teteven in Bulgaria.Ljubomir Miletić once claimed that Pašić's father or grandfather settled from Teteven, in Bulgaria (which was refuted), however, both of them were born in Zaječar.Carlo Sforza mentioned that Pašić "was lucky in another respect, he belonged to the Shopi community".
