What do you know about... Kosovo?

This is the thirty-second part of our ongoing series about the countries of Europe. You can find an overview here.

Today's country:

Kosovo

Kosovo is a partially recognized state in the balkan. It belonged to the Ottoman empire from the 15th until the beginning of the 20th century. After being part of Yugoslavia for most of the 20th century, Kosovo unilaterally declared independence in 2008. It has been recognized as a country by 111 nations, but Serbia refuses to recognize it as a souverign state. Notable european countries refusing to recognize Kosovo include Spain (because of separatist movements in Spain), Greece and Russia (there are several more, you can check the list linked).

So, what do you know about Kosovo?


Major thanks to /u/our_best_friend, who took care of these threads during my absence.

You complain about us spewing propaganda yet here you doing even worse. I don´t the time to point out all you BS, though I will point out how you claim our orthodox influence comes from the Milošević era when the most important monuments of ours are medieval monasteries, built before you even set foot and Kosovo. And KLA had much success!? It got fucking rekt!

Don't cry be happy! Albanians were the first in the Balkans. Albanians are the descendants of Illyrian (the country you live in right now).

Don't worry Albanians have no interests settling into Serbia nor Africa. Albanians want to live in harmony with everyone including Serbs, Africans, Arabs, Turks and so on bro!
