Two years ago, the Gen Z-led movement didn’t even exist, but it has now torn up more than a decade of political dominance; Aleksandar Vucic conceded defeat, ending his 14-year grip on power.
None of the students actually stood as candidates in the election - and the movement doesn’t have a recognised leader.

Watch the full episode of the breakdown on Channel 4 News' YouTube channel.
