[info]iive: no intervijas ar Dusanu Makavejevu

This is King Milutin Street, named after one of the famous kings of Old Serbia from the 12th century or something. They say that he built forty monasteries for his forty years being in power, trying to repent for all the sins and murders he committed. He must have done a lot of bad things because forty churches is a lot. Just yesterday on the internet I found something about him being one of the first kings who coined his own money, from some silver mines he had in Kosovo. Dante put him in the 9th Circle of Hell in The Inferno because he was the first one to put his own face on the money he produced. Another story that I have found says that in fact the money was partially counterfeit. It did not have as much silver as promised. So he was one of the first known counterfeiters in history. It seems the pope accused him, and wanted to put him in court. He cheated his own population and the world population as well.
