Stefan Stefanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Стефан Стефановић; 1797–1865), known as Tenka (Тенка), was a Serbian politician who served as the Prime Minister of Serbia.[1] Stefanović was a leader of pro-Obrenović group that conspired against Prince Alexander Karađorđević.[2] As a result, in 1840, Tenka Stefanović was forced to join a group of Constitutionalists (Toma Vučić-Perišić, Avram Petronijević, Milutin Garašanin and his two sons Luka and Ilija Garašanin, Stojan Simić, Matija Nenadović, Lazar Teodorović) who were sent in exile to Constantinople.[3]
