The Ustaše, officially the Ustaša – Croatian Revolutionary Movement, were a Nazi collaborator organization during the Second World War. They ruled Croatia from 1941 to 1945 with support of the Roman Catholic clergy. The Ustaše ran the Jasenovac death camp and killed 750,000 Serbs, 45,000 Jews, and at least 26,000 Roma. After the war, they escaped to Italy and Austria, bringing millions of stolen dollars with them. Their leaders, Ante Pavelić and Andrija Artuković, escaped to Argentina and the United States, respectively, after the war; however, Artuković was extradited to Yugoslavia in 1986 and died in prison.
