Peter II of Yugoslavia
Peter II of Yugoslavia (September 6, 1923 — November 3, 1970), was the king of Yugoslavia from 1934–1945. From 1934–1941 his cousin Paul ruled as regent but when Yugoslavia joined the Axis powers, a pro Allied coup overthrew him and leaving the axis. The axis invaded Yugoslavia and the Yugoslav government went into exile. The government never returned to the country because a communist government, the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia, was formed after the country was liberated.
Peter died in exile in the United States in 1970.
