Generally considered to be the greatest Yugoslav and Serbian player ever, Svetozar Gligoric was born on February 2, 1923 in Belgrade in what was then the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. He passed away in his home city over 89 years later, completing a life in which he was widely regarded as a key figure in the development of chess in his native country. Gligorić made far-ranging contributions to the theory and practice of the Nimzo-Indian Defense, the Ruy Lopez, and the King's Indian Defense, some of which were named after him, including such critical and commonly played opening variations as the Nimzo-Indian Gligoric System (E54).
