Everything from Kosovo
Kosovo is a landlocked country in the Balkans, bordered by Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, and North Macedonia. Its terrain includes the Sharr Mountains and two main plains. With a population of around 1.8 million, it is one of Europe’s youngest countries, declaring independence from Serbia in 2008. The capital and largest city is Pristina.
Kosovo’s history is central to medieval Serbian culture but has an ethnic Albanian majority. The late 1990s saw a brutal conflict, leading to NATO intervention. Its independence is recognised by over 100 countries but not by Serbia or Russia. Today, it is a potential candidate for EU membership, with a young population and a developing economy. It is one of the poorest countries in Europe, with challenges including unemployment and political instability.
Kosovo is a country in the region Sandalsand has defined as Southern Europe. There are introductions to this region and other regions in the Destinations menu.
