Aristotel Petrović (1881–1920) was a Bosnian politician who served as the 6th Mayor of Sarajevo from 1918 to 1920. He was Sarajevo's first mayor post-World War I and in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes.
Early life and family
Petrović was born to a family of Bosnian Serb merchants in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. His father Petar Petrović was a Serb from Korçë, Albania who self-identified as ethnically Greek and gave his three sons (Aristotel, Diogen and Sokrat) Greek names.[1]
Politics
After the First World War ended in 1918, Petrović was elected as Sarajevo's 6th mayor on 2 December of that year,[2] and served until Ljudevit Novat was elected in the November 1920 elections, although he had attempted to resign in May 1920.[3] He was the city's first mayor in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes.[4]
