Count Diebitsch

Count Diebitsch (1785-1831), also Hans Karl von Diebitsch, was a Russian general, born in Silesia. He was commander-in-chief in 1829 of the Russian army against Turkey, over the forces of which he gained a victory in the Balkans. Commissioned to suppress a Polish insurrection, he was baffled in his efforts, and fell a victim to cholera in 1831.
