Asked by Wiki User

Kosovo. Kosovo is its own country ! The capital of Kosovo is Phrishtina.

Kosovo is not its own country. It has yet to have enough recognition. Only 75/195 members of the UN recognize Kosovo's sovereignty, and you need at least half, which would be 97 or 98.

The peace agreement aigned on June 11 1999 empowered the kosovo liberation army to take power in kosovo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No. The Kosovo Liberation Army was disbanded after the Peace Agreement was implemented. However, many Kosovars who were members of KLA became part of the new Kosovo Protection Corps, which worked alongside NATO forces patrolling the province. The KLA legacy remains powerful within Kosovo. Its former members still play a major role in Kosovar politics.

Why is the Battle of Kosovo important?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Battle of Kosovo field has only importance for Serbian people and it is a folklore...During 14th century Otomanic empire was trying to conquer all Europe...Turks the leading nation in Otoman Empire had made its eye on Byzantia and wanted to take its tresure. On the 28th of June 1389 Serbian army and Turkish had fought, and the both sides lost their rulers...Only problem for Serbs was that the Empire created by Emperor Dushan who has died by sugested poissonig because he wanted to lead Crusade against the Turks with help of Pope, and Serbian nobleman with help of Ortodox church killed this great ruler thinking he wanted to make Serbia Catolic religion, and empire was dying...Dushan was killed before Kosovo battle. Afther Kosovo battle Serbian Empire slowly was conquered by Turks, and Serbian people was in bondage for five centuries as many Balkan people, the Greeks, the Bulgarians etc etc...Turkish Otoman empire was harsh to conquered people...In Serbina people there is story about it in a form of Epic poem.Serbs think that Kosovo battle is a form of Serbian Golgotha and a form of martyrdom due to great influence of Ortodox church...But if you don't look nationalistic or religion form of story, Kosovo battle was important for slowing down the Turks from conquering the rest of Europe and was one of major battles in war of christian Europe against Otomanic empire, and also was preface of Battle of Vienna when Turks was finally stoped...

What is the relationship with Serbia and Kosovo?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Kosovo is the province of Serbia,like Bavaria is the province of Germany.
Kosovo is still a part of Serbia, but Albanians from Kosovo want Kosovo to become a republic...This problem started during 80's and 90's of XX century...At begining there were equal Serbs and Albanians on Kosovo, but Albanians started buying land from Serbians, and gave them much more money than in reality the land costs...So many Serbs left Kosovo to live in capitol Belgrade...When Serbian population fell off Albanians started attacking some Serbs in minority, and they had support of US and NATO...Today tensions are big, since Kosovars, or Kosovo Albanians want etnic clean Kosovo from Serbs...Problem for Serbs is they don't look in reality, they think of Kosovo as Holy land or Serbian Jerusalem, becuse there was battle between Turks and Serbs in Middle ages, that was begining of destruction of Serbian Medevill state, while for Albanians Kosovo is strategic important...That tension did not existed during Yugoslavia, but started when Yugoslavia broke apart, with revision of nationalism in every state of former country...Problem that nobody looks is, for Serbians Kosovo should not be important as Holy land, but as a land where part of their people live, a living people, and Albanians should not be so agresive and secesionistic...They all should live normal lives...

What is kosovos most popular sport?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Kosovo's national sport is guxhas. It is played in team of 21 people where one is the guxha and others are players. The guxha's have to stand naked while the players hit him on genitals with a unshaped piece of wood. Guxha's are prefered to be from Albanian ethnic majority living in Kosovo. The Guxha must remember to say "Guxha" to win, or die to lose. The sport has a very high fatality rate, since the Guxha is usually too stupid to remember what he needs to say. Therefore the Olympics are never planning to host in Kosovo.
