Kosovo is a landlocked country situated in Southeastern Europe, in the center of Balkan Peninsula.
With an area of 10.908km2 (4sqmi), it is one of the smallest countries in Europe by area, but one of the most densely populated, with a population of 1,859,203 (2014 estimate) inhabitants (159/km2).
Considering its small size, Kosovo has a great variety of topographical features. It is surrounded by mountains: the Sharr Mountains are located in the south and southeast, bordering Macedonia, while the Kopaonik Mountains rise in the north. The southwest borders with Montenegro and Albania are also mountainous, and are home to the country's highest peak, Gjeravica, 2,656m (8,714ft) high. The central region is mainly hilly, but two large plains spread over Kosovo's west and east, respectively, Metohija plain and Kosovo plain.
In the terms of hydrography, Kosovo has limited water resources. The main rivers in the country are the White Drin, running towards the Adriatic Sea, the South Morava in the Goljak area, and Ibar in the north. Sitnica, a tributary of Ibar, is the longest river lying completely within Kosovo. There are several small natural lakes but the country's most important lakes are artificial. The biggest lakes are Gazivoda, Radonjić, Batlava and Badovac. Kosovo also does have a large number of karst springs, thermal and mineral water springs.
The name Kosovo (as referred to in this spelling) is the most frequently used form in English when discussing the region in question. The Albanian spelling Kosova has lesser currency. The alternative spellings Cossovo and Kossovo were frequently used until the early 20th century
Kosovo
Albanian usage may contain the definite article, as such it varies (Kosova vs. Kosovë). The question does not arise in Serbian, which has no definite article.
Kosovo (Serbian Cyrillic: Косово, pronounced [kosoʋo]) is the Serbian neuter possessive adjective of kos (кос) "blackbird", an ellipsis for Kosovo Polje "field of the blackbirds", the site of the 1389 Battle of Kosovo Field. The name of the field was applied to an Ottoman province created in 1864. In Greek the full name of the historical region is Kossyfopèdio meaning field (-pèdio) of the blackbirds (Kossyfi-).
The use of these spelling variants is a highly sensitive political issue for both Serbs and Albanians, who regard the use of the other side's name as being a denial of their own side's territorial rights.
According to Rivers, "...the intent of the song was to mock my own country for its bullying ways around the world. The idea was to point out how casually the U.S. plays World Police. The song takes on the persona of the U.S. government, ridiculing the fact that we push others around without much concern."
In May, 2005, a group of Norwegian peacekeepers in Kosovo (calling themselves the "Shiptare Boys") parodied the music video for "Kokomo," using Rivers' song with their own hand-held video camera footage. In the parody, the soldiers imitate dance moves and scenes from the original music video in desolate war-torn areas around Kosovo. It was widely broadcast in the Balkans, prompting the Norwegian ambassador to formally apologize.

Why is Kosovo's Situation so Controversial Nowadays?? 🧐
#shorts #geography
To understand the context of the situation, we have to go all the way back to the beginning of the year 2008, when Kosovo officially declared its independence from Serbia. The reasons for this separation had to do with the fact that Kosovar people are extremely different from Serbians
For starters, 93% people living in kosovo are actually Albanian, and only 1.5% are serbian. on top of that, more than 95 percent of the country is muslim, whereas serbia is majority eastern orthodox
But back to the question of why is it so controversial. Well, this is because Serbia continues to claim that Kosovo is just a rebellious territory of serbia, and isn't an independent country at all.
Currently, only a total of 117 countries recognize Kosovo as independent, with notable count...

In this video we travel to Kosovo*, the Schrodinger's country. Boasting a rich medieval history, Kosovo has been an epicenter of controversy as both Serbs and Albanians claim the territory as their own. Many wars have been fought over this land, such as the Battle of Kosovo 1389, The Balkan Wars, WWI, WWII, and the Kosovo War. Through this video we take you on the journey to explore 4 of Kosovo's most notable cities, Prishtina, Mitrovica, Peja/Pec, and Prizren, as we discuss the history that formed this land.

How did Kosovo become a country?
Kosovo, Europe's newest country, was formed 10 years ago this week. It is peaceful today, but the path to its creation lay in one of Europe's most brutal sectarian conflicts. Warning: this film contains graphic content.
Click here to subscribe to The Economist on YouTube: http://econ.st/2BZBGtD
In 2008, Kosovo became Europe’s newest country. This small, landlocked state of two million people emerged as a result of one of Europe’s most brutal sectarian conflicts since the second world war.
Today Kosovo is peaceful, but poor. Unemployment is high and the grey economy accounts for about 30% of the country’s economic activity. And Kosovans are the only citizens in Europe to not have visa free access to the rest of the continent.
The country is still divided along ethnic lines. 90% of it...

👩🏼🧔🏻 WHO ARE WE?
We are Nicole from Austria/Germany and Roberto from Switzerland/Italy. We believe that there's more to travel than just the typical tourist sights. We delve deeper into the culture, people, and way of life in each destination, rather than just focusing on the tourist attractions or surface-level experiences. Join us on this journey! We hope our travel videos inform & inspire you!

Have you heard of Kosovo? It's one of my favorite hidden gems in Europe, and I’m so excited to be back here for a 2nd visit! This time, I’m showing you what $10 USD can get you in this super affordable, yet incredibly unique country. From delicious local food to cultural experiences and even some unexpected surprises, I managed to stretch my money way further than you'd expect -- seriously, the value for your money here is insane!
In this video, I explore the vibrant streets of Prizren, diving into the local culture and trying out some authentic Kosovar dishes that are packed with flavor but super cheap. You’ll see how far $10 goes when it comes to food, transportation, and even a little souvenir shopping.
Kosovo isn’t just about affordability, though. The culture, the people, and the unique blend of history and modernity make it one of the coolest places to visit in the Balkans. I loved connecting with locals, learning more about their traditions, and experiencing the warm hospitality that makes this place feel so special. You won’t believe how much fun I had on this $10 adventure!

In this video we travel to Kosovo*, the Schrodinger's country. Boasting a rich medieval history, Kosovo has been an epicenter of controversy as both Serbs and Albanians claim the territory as their own. Many wars have been fought over this land, such as the Battle of Kosovo 1389, The Balkan Wars, WWI, WWII, and the Kosovo War. Through this video we take you on the journey to explore 4 of Kosovo's most notable cities, Prishtina, Mitrovica, Peja/Pec, and Prizren, as we discuss the history that formed this land.

বন্ধুরা আজকে আমরা ইউরোপ মহাদেশের একটি দেশ কসোভো সম্পর্কে জানবো। এইরকম আরো ভিডিও দেখতে আমাদের চ্যানেলটি ঘুরে আসতে পারেনঃ https://www.youtube.com/worldinbengali
কসোভো বিশ্বের সর্বশেষ স্বাধীন মুসলিম রাষ্ট্র। নানান অত্যাচার নির্যাতনের পরও দেশটি ইউরোপের মাটিতে ইসলামের স্মারক বুকে নিয়ে টিকে আছে। যুদ্ধবিধ্বস্ত এই দেশটি এখন নিজেদের নতুন করে গুছিয়ে নেওয়ার চেষ্টা করছে। অর্থনৈতিকভাবেও ধিরে ধিরে উন্নতি করছে এই ছোট্ট দেশটি। প্রাকৃতিকভাবে বলকানের অন্যান্য দেশের মতোই অত্যন্ত সমৃদ্ধ দেশ এটি। মুসলিম সংখ্যাগরিষ্ঠ হওয়ার কারনে কসোভোতে রয়েছে অনেক চমৎকার মসজিদ, যা পর্যটকদের হাতছানি দিয়ে ডাকে। এখানকার মানুষজনও অত্যন্ত সদয় প্রকৃতির।
তাহলে বন্ধুরা চলুন, আজকে কসোভো দেশ সম্পর্কে আরো কিছু জানা-অজানা এবং প্রয়োজনীয় তথ্য জেনে নেওয়া যাক।
Kosovo, officially the Republic of Kosovo, is a partially-recognized state in Southeast Europe, subject to a territorial dispute with the Republic of Serbia. In this video, today, we'll know all about Kosovo. Enjoy the video! :)

Kosovo, Europe's newest country, was formed 10 years ago this week. It is peaceful today, but the path to its creation lay in one of Europe's most brutal sectarian conflicts. Warning: this film contains graphic content.

In 2008, Kosovo became Europe’s newest country. This small, landlocked state of two million people emerged as a result of one of Europe’s most brutal sectarian conflicts since the second world war.
Today Kosovo is peaceful, but poor. Unemployment is high and the grey economy accounts for about 30% of the country’s economic activity. And Kosovans are the only citizens in Europe to not have visa free access to the rest of the continent.
The country is still divided along ethnic lines. 90% of its people are Albanian speakers and mostly Muslim. About 10% are ethnic Serbs, who are Orthodox Christians and live mostly in the north.
Why did such a small corner of the Balkans come to the world’s attention in 1999?
The origins of modern Kosovo date back over a century. When the new state of Albania was formed in 1912, Kosovo was not included within its borders. Instead, Kosovars found themselves ruled by Serbia. As a Serbian province, Kosovo later became part of a new country: Yugoslavia.
With the fall of communism across central and eastern Europe, Yugoslavia began to disintegrate in the early 1990s. As Croatia and Bosnia & Hercegovina declared independence local Serbs who wanted to remain in the same state as Serbia went to war. They were fully backed by Serbia and the Serbian-controlled Yugoslav armies.
When those wars ended in 1995 Kosovo remained part of Serbia. Ethnic Albanians in Kosovo sensed that they too could gain their own independence.
But Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic, wanting to keep what was left of Yugoslavia together, did not want to let Kosovo go. He’d made his intentions clear in a speech some years earlier.

On 24 March 1999, the US and its Western allies began a bombing campaign over Serbia that ended the Kosovo war.
But for many Kosovo Albanians and Serbs, the conflict has never been resolved.
The BBC's Jeremy Bowen, Albana Kasapi and Dejan Anastasijevic reported on the war and its aftermath. They explain why it can't be put to bed.

The Meaning of Name "KOSOVO"
History knew the part of the territory where Kosovo is today, called Dardani, as part of a larger concept, called "Illyria".
The etymology of the name Dardania has been associated with the Albanian word "dardha" meaning pear. Bardyllis was a king of Dardania whose name in Albanian literally means "White-Star" from Bardh(White) and Yll(Star)
Much wider than the part where Kosovo now lies, the former Dardania reached as far as Nis in the north, coming as far as Skopje, in the east there were the rivers Morava and Varadari and in the west the mountains of the Autoratories.
However, in the first century BCE, this geographical area fell under Roman rule, making Dardania a Roman province.
Could this name have Illyrian origins?
An interpretation about the Illyrian origin is given by th...

History knew the part of the territory where Kosovo is today, called Dardani, as part of a larger concept, called "Illyria".
The etymology of the name Dardani...
History knew the part of the territory where Kosovo is today, called Dardani, as part of a larger concept, called "Illyria".
The etymology of the name Dardania has been associated with the Albanian word "dardha" meaning pear. Bardyllis was a king of Dardania whose name in Albanian literally means "White-Star" from Bardh(White) and Yll(Star)
Much wider than the part where Kosovo now lies, the former Dardania reached as far as Nis in the north, coming as far as Skopje, in the east there were the rivers Morava and Varadari and in the west the mountains of the Autoratories.
However, in the first century BCE, this geographical area fell under Roman rule, making Dardania a Roman province.
Could this name have Illyrian origins?
An interpretation about the Illyrian origin is given by the Croatian academic Josip Roglic, who in his writings mentions that the geographical names of the Illyrian Peninsula belong to the Illyrian language, thus the geographical term "Kosovo" belongs to the old Illyrian language.
Its basis is based on the fact that the name "Kosovo" is also found in some countries such as Dalmatia, Bosnia and Northern Macedonia.
"I must say that the name Kosovo we as an indigenous people do not encounter in the time of Illyria and Dardania",
In this regard, some other authors call this attempt of Serbia for Slavic etymology constructed.
Another theory is that throughout the territory of present-day Kosovo since antiquity we encounter a large number of Dardanian castles, which were later fortified by the Romans.
So the theory says that "Kos" is a continuation of the ancient word "Kas" which refers to huts or castles.
"I share a different opinion that the name of Kosovo derives from Kas-Kast-Kastle that falls to the castle. So the place of Castles because from Zvecan to Lipjan there were many castles ", says the historian Izet Miftari.
The name Kosovo is based on the complaint "kas". Kasovo, Kasua, Kasovia from written sources and geographical maps of the XVII century. Kasa, from Old Latin means house. So we are dealing with an urbanized place where there are houses ", says for RTV Dukagjini, Enver Rexha.
The name of a mining town, "Kasovo", is mentioned by various European roadmaps, as is the case of an English roadmap during 1601.
Also quoted is another author, the albanologist Johann Georg von Hahn who describes the location of that city
Among other things, this is evidenced by maps of the Ottoman period of 1854.
Even French authors of that time describe the road to that city with the phrase "Boschi Cossova" or the mountains of Kosovo.
This town is thought to be the village of Bellasica, in the northwest of the Prishtina region. During the field research, materials of a medieval fortification were found there.
Research has also been done along the road line that has crossed that area of that potential metallurgical city.
the Bellasica area does not seem to be the only research to uncover the truth. Research has also been done in the northeast of Prishtina, respectively in the village of Siqevë.
At that time Bellasica Castle is also thought to have been under the jurisdiction of Kassova Castle.
Even on Italian and German maps of the time, our country is written under the name "Kasova" - citing a piece of advice that existed northeast of Pristina.
Even from the writings of the Ottoman Empire of the time, on the eve of the battle of Kosovo in the XV century.
"There are some Italian and German maps, the name Kosovo is not mentioned but Kasova. The map clearly shows that in the northeast of Prishtina there was a castle Kosova…
This is also supported by the writings of Evliya Qelebi, in the 17th century, who was an Ottoman explorer who traveled to the territories of the former Ottoman Empire for 40 years.
That the origin of the name Kosovo is based on Latin, says the British Encyclopedia.
"An interesting information is given by the British Encyclopedia which says that the name Kosovo has a Latinized basis", says Enver Rexha, Director of Archeology of Kosovo.

To understand the context of the situation, we have to go all the way back to the beginning of the year 2008, when Kosovo officially declared its independence from Serbia. The reasons for this separation had to do with the fact that Kosovar people are extremely different from Serbians
For starters, 93% people living in kosovo are actually Albanian, and only 1.5% are serbian. on top of that, more than 95 percent of the country is muslim, whereas serbia is majority eastern orthodox
But back to the question of why is it so controversial. Well, this is because Serbia continues to claim that Kosovo is just a rebellious territory of serbia, and isn't an independent country at all.
Currently, only a total of 117 countries recognize Kosovo as independent, with notable countries like Serbia, Bosnia, and Russia denying Kosovo’s claim as an independent country.

Kosovo is a country located in the western Balkans region of Europe that declared its independence from Serbia in 2008. It has a population of about 1.8 million people, with the majority speaking Albanian and practicing Islam.
Kosovo is a candidate for EU membership and has a Stabilization and Association Agreement with the EU, and it is a member of organizations such as the World Bank and the Council of Europe. However, Kosovo's independence is not recognized by Serbia or a number of other countries, and it has a history of conflict and unrest, including the Kosovo War in the late 1990s and ongoing tensions with Serbia.
Kosovo has significant natural resources and the potential to be an economic hub in the region, but it has struggled to realize this due to its political and economic challenges.

Kosovo is a landlocked country situated in Southeastern Europe, in the center of Balkan Peninsula.
With an area of 10.908km2 (4sqmi), it is one of the smallest countries in Europe by area, but one of the most densely populated, with a population of 1,859,203 (2014 estimate) inhabitants (159/km2).
Considering its small size, Kosovo has a great variety of topographical features. It is surrounded by mountains: the Sharr Mountains are located in the south and southeast, bordering Macedonia, while the Kopaonik Mountains rise in the north. The southwest borders with Montenegro and Albania are also mountainous, and are home to the country's highest peak, Gjeravica, 2,656m (8,714ft) high. The central region is mainly hilly, but two large plains spread over Kosovo's west and east, respectively, Metohija plain and Kosovo plain.
In the terms of hydrography, Kosovo has limited water resources. The main rivers in the country are the White Drin, running towards the Adriatic Sea, the South Morava in the Goljak area, and Ibar in the north. Sitnica, a tributary of Ibar, is the longest river lying completely within Kosovo. There are several small natural lakes but the country's most important lakes are artificial. The biggest lakes are Gazivoda, Radonjić, Batlava and Badovac. Kosovo also does have a large number of karst springs, thermal and mineral water springs.
Travel Documentary Kosovo, Part 1. 🇽🇰 Is Kosovo still a war zone? Would we recommend you to travel there? Is it safe? We share with you our first-hand experience of Kosovo country in 2022.
Currently, the media are constantly reporting conflicts between ethnic Albanians and ethnic Serbs …
Yet, apart from these inherent tensions, there is also a very normal life in a very captivating country, which is worth discovering. Dua Lipa and Rita Ora, to name just a few examples, are proud representatives of their birth country Kosovo.
In our travel video, we shed light on this very young country that declared itself independent from Serbia in 2008, even though Serbia still considers Kosovo part of its territory. Most European countries, the United States, Australia, etc. recognize Kosovo’s independence, but a significant number of others do not (such as Serbia, China, Russia etc.).
Join us for a deep dive into Kosovo’s capital Pristina and the surrounding area. We bring in the shadows of the past (Kosovo War, Kosovo Liberation Army UÇK etc.) and throw light on present day life. Explore with us interesting (majority Albanian and Serb) villages, beautiful landscapes, unique people – and gain many insights.
We take you on a journey to a land that is still unknown to many! You will be intrigued.

👩🏼🧔🏻 WHO ARE WE?
We are Nicole from Austria/Germany and Roberto from Switzerland/Italy. We believe that there's more to travel than just the typical tourist sights. We delve deeper into the culture, people, and way of life in each destination, rather than just focusing on the tourist attractions or surface-level experiences. Join us on this journey! We hope our travel videos inform & inspire you!
Have you heard of Kosovo? It's one of my favorite hidden gems in Europe, and I’m so excited to be back here for a 2nd visit! This time, I’m showing you what $10 USD can get you in this super affordable, yet incredibly unique country. From delicious local food to cultural experiences and even some unexpected surprises, I managed to stretch my money way further than you'd expect -- seriously, the value for your money here is insane!
In this video, I explore the vibrant streets of Prizren, diving into the local culture and trying out some authentic Kosovar dishes that are packed with flavor but super cheap. You’ll see how far $10 goes when it comes to food, transportation, and even a little souvenir shopping.
Kosovo isn’t just about affordability, though. The culture, the people, and the unique blend of history and modernity make it one of the coolest places to visit in the Balkans. I loved connecting with locals, learning more about their traditions, and experiencing the warm hospitality that makes this place feel so special. You won’t believe how much fun I had on this $10 adventure!

In this video we travel to Kosovo*, the Schrodinger's country. Boasting a rich medieval history, Kosovo has been an epicenter of controversy as both Serbs and Albanians claim the territory as their own. Many wars have been fought over this land, such as the Battle of Kosovo 1389, The Balkan Wars, WWI, WWII, and the Kosovo War. Through this video we take you on the journey to explore 4 of Kosovo's most notable cities, Prishtina, Mitrovica, Peja/Pec, and Prizren, as we discuss the history that formed this land.

Kosovo
Kosovo, officially the Republic of Kosovo, is a partially recognised state in Southeastern Europe. It lies at the centre of the Balkans, occupying an area of 10,887 km², with a population of c. 1.8 ... Wikipedia
Pristina
City
Pristina is the capital and largest city of Kosovo. Its population is predominantly Albanian-speaking, constituting the second-largest such city in Europe, after Tirana. The city is located in the northeastern section of Kosovo in a relatively flat plain close to the Gollak mountains. Wikipedia
Kosovo, Europe's newest country, was formed 10 years ago this week. It is peaceful today, but the path to its creation lay in one of Europe's most brutal sectarian conflicts. Warning: this film contains graphic content.

In 2008, Kosovo became Europe’s newest country. This small, landlocked state of two million people emerged as a result of one of Europe’s most brutal sectarian conflicts since the second world war.
Today Kosovo is peaceful, but poor. Unemployment is high and the grey economy accounts for about 30% of the country’s economic activity. And Kosovans are the only citizens in Europe to not have visa free access to the rest of the continent.
The country is still divided along ethnic lines. 90% of its people are Albanian speakers and mostly Muslim. About 10% are ethnic Serbs, who are Orthodox Christians and live mostly in the north.
Why did such a small corner of the Balkans come to the world’s attention in 1999?
The origins of modern Kosovo date back over a century. When the new state of Albania was formed in 1912, Kosovo was not included within its borders. Instead, Kosovars found themselves ruled by Serbia. As a Serbian province, Kosovo later became part of a new country: Yugoslavia.
With the fall of communism across central and eastern Europe, Yugoslavia began to disintegrate in the early 1990s. As Croatia and Bosnia & Hercegovina declared independence local Serbs who wanted to remain in the same state as Serbia went to war. They were fully backed by Serbia and the Serbian-controlled Yugoslav armies.
When those wars ended in 1995 Kosovo remained part of Serbia. Ethnic Albanians in Kosovo sensed that they too could gain their own independence.
But Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic, wanting to keep what was left of Yugoslavia together, did not want to let Kosovo go. He’d made his intentions clear in a speech some years earlier.

On 24 March 1999, the US and its Western allies began a bombing campaign over Serbia that ended the Kosovo war.
But for many Kosovo Albanians and Serbs, the conflict has never been resolved.
The BBC's Jeremy Bowen, Albana Kasapi and Dejan Anastasijevic reported on the war and its aftermath. They explain why it can't be put to bed.

History knew the part of the territory where Kosovo is today, called Dardani, as part of a larger concept, called "Illyria".
The etymology of the name Dardania has been associated with the Albanian word "dardha" meaning pear. Bardyllis was a king of Dardania whose name in Albanian literally means "White-Star" from Bardh(White) and Yll(Star)
Much wider than the part where Kosovo now lies, the former Dardania reached as far as Nis in the north, coming as far as Skopje, in the east there were the rivers Morava and Varadari and in the west the mountains of the Autoratories.
However, in the first century BCE, this geographical area fell under Roman rule, making Dardania a Roman province.
Could this name have Illyrian origins?
An interpretation about the Illyrian origin is given by the Croatian academic Josip Roglic, who in his writings mentions that the geographical names of the Illyrian Peninsula belong to the Illyrian language, thus the geographical term "Kosovo" belongs to the old Illyrian language.
Its basis is based on the fact that the name "Kosovo" is also found in some countries such as Dalmatia, Bosnia and Northern Macedonia.
"I must say that the name Kosovo we as an indigenous people do not encounter in the time of Illyria and Dardania",
In this regard, some other authors call this attempt of Serbia for Slavic etymology constructed.
Another theory is that throughout the territory of present-day Kosovo since antiquity we encounter a large number of Dardanian castles, which were later fortified by the Romans.
So the theory says that "Kos" is a continuation of the ancient word "Kas" which refers to huts or castles.
"I share a different opinion that the name of Kosovo derives from Kas-Kast-Kastle that falls to the castle. So the place of Castles because from Zvecan to Lipjan there were many castles ", says the historian Izet Miftari.
The name Kosovo is based on the complaint "kas". Kasovo, Kasua, Kasovia from written sources and geographical maps of the XVII century. Kasa, from Old Latin means house. So we are dealing with an urbanized place where there are houses ", says for RTV Dukagjini, Enver Rexha.
The name of a mining town, "Kasovo", is mentioned by various European roadmaps, as is the case of an English roadmap during 1601.
Also quoted is another author, the albanologist Johann Georg von Hahn who describes the location of that city
Among other things, this is evidenced by maps of the Ottoman period of 1854.
Even French authors of that time describe the road to that city with the phrase "Boschi Cossova" or the mountains of Kosovo.
This town is thought to be the village of Bellasica, in the northwest of the Prishtina region. During the field research, materials of a medieval fortification were found there.
Research has also been done along the road line that has crossed that area of that potential metallurgical city.
the Bellasica area does not seem to be the only research to uncover the truth. Research has also been done in the northeast of Prishtina, respectively in the village of Siqevë.
At that time Bellasica Castle is also thought to have been under the jurisdiction of Kassova Castle.
Even on Italian and German maps of the time, our country is written under the name "Kasova" - citing a piece of advice that existed northeast of Pristina.
Even from the writings of the Ottoman Empire of the time, on the eve of the battle of Kosovo in the XV century.
"There are some Italian and German maps, the name Kosovo is not mentioned but Kasova. The map clearly shows that in the northeast of Prishtina there was a castle Kosova…
This is also supported by the writings of Evliya Qelebi, in the 17th century, who was an Ottoman explorer who traveled to the territories of the former Ottoman Empire for 40 years.
That the origin of the name Kosovo is based on Latin, says the British Encyclopedia.
"An interesting information is given by the British Encyclopedia which says that the name Kosovo has a Latinized basis", says Enver Rexha, Director of Archeology of Kosovo.
