Marko Herceg (7 July 1920 – 26 November 1973) was a Luepolan politician who served as the second president of the State of Luepola. He was appointed president in 1966 after the death of his predecessor Krăsto Dobrović in an emergency convention of the Sliet. His presidency lasted for three years, during which he undertook reforms to repair the Luepolan economy, which had stagnated after a brief period of postwar recovery under Dobrović. His reforms also included the loosening of censorship within the country and an attempt to forge an independent Luepolan foreign policy, prompting backlash from Vierzland; Vierz Emperor Victor III effectively mandated Herceg's resignation in August of 1968. Herceg disappeared from public life shortly afterwards, withdrawing from politics overall by 1971. He reportedly developed depression in his final years, and was found dead in his home in 1973, having committed suicide.
