The title is therefore usually compared and considered equivalent to other titles of ethno-political leadership used at the time such as Führer (used by Adolf Hitler and which was itself modeled after Benito Mussolini's title Duce)) and as a result "Poglavnik" is sometimes translated as "Fuhrer" in English-language sources.
The Medal of the Crown of King Zvonimir and the Medal of Poglavnik Ante Pavelić for bravery were made by the Croatian sculptor Ivo Kerdić.
