The article recently claimed his family was of Slovenian origin, from Koprivnik in Kocevski Rog, as do the Slovenian and German wiki. Now it claims he was of Italian origin. Which is correct?
Caprivi de Caprara de Montecuccoli- What about this name would give you the idea that he was ethnically Slovenian? Find me a full blooded Slovenian with the name Caprivi de Caprara de Montecuccoli or any parts of this name. He was an ethnic Italian from Slovenia, we don't call Oskar Schindler a Czech or Stalin a Russian. Even if his true family name is Kapriva how does that account for all the clearly Italian names after that?
I tried to expand the history of his chancellorship from some slightly more up-to-date sources. But I'm sure much more could be done here. I hope it helps! — Preceding unsigned comment added by GreatBalfoursGhost (talk • contribs) 00:05, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
