Johann Freiherr[1] von Appel (also Baron Johann von Appel), (b. 11 November 1826, Sikirevci, Slavonski Brod; 7. September 1906, Gradisca d'Isonzo) was an Austro-Hungarian general and administrator. He was the Austrian governor of Bosnia and Herzegovina between 1882 and 1903.
Notes
edit- ^ Regarding personal names: Freiherr was a title before 1919, but now is regarded as part of the surname. It is translated as Baron. Before the August 1919 abolition of nobility as a legal class, titles preceded the full name when given (Graf Helmuth James von Moltke). Since 1919, these titles, along with any nobiliary prefix (von, zu, etc.), can be used, but are regarded as a dependent part of the surname, and thus come after any given names (Helmuth James Graf von Moltke). Titles and all dependent parts of surnames are ignored in alphabetical sorting. The feminine forms are Freifrau and Freiin.
