Wikipedia, 11 Feb. 2015: under Kneževo (Kneževo is a town and municipality in central Bosnia and Herzegovina; it lies about 40 kilometres south-east of Banja Luka and is part of the Republika Srpska entity; the name of the town prior to the Yugoslav Wars was Skender Vakuf; on 14 September 1992, the Assembly of Republika Srpska renamed it Kneževo as part of the "language war" or "linguistic cleansing"; the old name remains in use in some circles, but is not mentioned once on the municipality's home page)
