Vladimir Karić

He greatly influenced the scientific orientations of his student from the Sabac high school – the future scientist and academician Jovan Cvijić.

In 1882, he published the book "Serbian Land", where he described in geological, geographical and statistical terms the territories inhabited by Serbs at that time.

[2] Under the pseudonym "V. Crnojević", Karić published a valuable historical-travel study in 1889 entitled "Constantinople, Mount Athos, Thessaloniki".

That department was formed precisely because of the spread of Serbian influence and education in Old Serbia and Macedonia, which were endangered by the activities of the Bulgarian Exarchate.

He sought to increase the number of Serbian schools, churches, priests and teachers, bookstores and connect the national workers there.

He remained in the consular position until 1892, where he showed significant success in the affairs of Serbian national policy.

Due to impaired health (tuberculosis), he went to the Baden air spa in Tyrol, where he died on 8 January 1894.

His follower Jovan Cvijić spoke at the service in the Serbian Orthodox Church Cathedral in Belgrade.
