Marko Čarapić Explained

Marko Čarapić (Serbian: Марко Чарапић; 1775–1826) was a voivode in the First and Second Serbian Uprising. He is a member of the famed Čarapić family, memorialized in epic folk songs.^{[1] [2]}

In 1826 another rebellion flared up in the Principality of Serbia aimed at Miloš Obrenović who took upon himself too many privileges. That rebellion became known as the Čarapić-Belisavljević Rebellion.^[3] since it was also led by Mihailo (Mija) Belisavljević.^[4] Marko Čarapić and his brother Đorđe, the nephews of the hero of the First Serbian Uprising, Vasa Čarapić, were both executed by the Turks after the failed rebellion.^{[3] [5]} Just like his uncle by the same name who was beheaded by the Turks, thus triggering the First Serbian Uprising.^[6]
