What is the relationship with Serbia and Kosovo?
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?
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.

Why did the US become involved in the Kosovo crisis?
The term Kosovo War or Kosovo Conflict is used to describe two sequential, and at times parallel, armed conflicts in Kosovo. Just a couple of years ago very few people in the United States, Russia or Western Europe, beside experts on the Balkans, would have recognized the name Kosovo and still fewer would have known anything about this obscure Serbian province. Since early 1999 all the world?s attention has been concentrated on the events in this hot spot.
Clinton spoke in a public meeting about why we were getting involved. He said, trying to get public approval, that the reason the U.S. is getting involved is largely an economical reason. He said that this war would help the U.S. financially. By getting involved, we would become partners with Europe, thus increasing a trade relationship.

What is the meaning of the name Kosovo?
"Blackbird's" actually! It's possessive noun, abbreviation of Kosovo Polje, or "blackbird's field" in English. In Shqipe, or Albanian language if you liked, it goes somehow like " mulizezë-së fushe"... if you trust google translate, in their language Kosovo means nothing, they just replaced last letter "o" with "a", so that it sounds Shqipe. But generally it's Serbian noun, for Serbian part of their southern province, or whatever is it now, but... that's another issue! Dig it now?
How many people live in kosovo?
As an estimate in 2007, Kosovo had 1,804,838 people as a whole. Its capital had an estimation of 550,000 people in 2006.
The density of its capital city, Pristina, is 661 people for every squared kilometer. However, in Kosovo as a whole, has 220 people for every squared kilometer.
The claim of such is disputed. The Serbs say it is, most of the people there say not.
Yes, Kosovo how it is pronounced is in the southern part of Serbia, but due to the war in 1999, Serbia has no governing in Kosovo.
