posted by aholic

Here tonight - february the 17th 2008 - did europa get a new country. Yes it is true. The province in Serbia, Kosovo, is now a country of it's own.

The albanian people in the province was tired of Serbia, and there has been a smaller conflict. The Serbians is not happy about it. They wonder if the albanians in the new country can handle it.

It has a population of just over two million people, predominantly ethnic Albanians, with smaller populations of Turks, Serbs, Romani people, Goranis, Bosniaks and other ethnic communities. Priština is the capital and largest city.

Ratdog Um, wow. Let's hope this doesn't end in war.

tvman Boy, this sounds bad. Serbia I think will not except this because it means another area has broken off ties with them. It was only 2 years ago that Montenegro separated and formed it's own country, offically cutting off any costal ties Serbia may have had. A seperation by Kosovo may lead to war, something the people in the area may not be able to take, with the memory of the Yugoslavian War, and the Kosovo War still fresh in their mind. I wish Kosovo good luck, for there independence, and there what may be fight to keep independence. As I am sure Surbia will not take this because after losing Montenegro, I am sure Serbia will not take the loss of another area of land lightly, as it mean the loss of bordering land with Albania, (a possable trading partner), and may symbolize the breaking apart of there country, but it is going to be rough for them, as now that Kosovo is a country (sort of) it has one of the most underdeveloped economies in Europe.

DrDevience Sweden is likely to support Kosovo, and feel the majority of the EU will also.

DrDevience TV Man - With the majority of the EU countries supporting them, it is felt that they will come under EU protection. Serbia would be on very thin ice if they attacked.

lusiana i am happy 4 kosovo!!!!hope they will be a great country!!

ALExXxRybakFaNn people where are ya from? i'm from croatia

cromulanfav You all support Kosovo, well nice, but just to know Kosovo is the most important part of Serbian culture and history so giving it away is problem for them. Ok, I simply wrote an article about what I think http://www.fanpop.com/spots/europe/articles/53330/title/kosovo-from-other-point

Tenkic How can you write article about something that you don't know a thing. I just don't wanna talk about it because it's really sad that someone who doesn't live there talks about it like it's nothing.
