What is the relationship between Kosovo and Serbia?

It is an autonomous province in southern Serbia. 1998 conflict broke out between local Albanian separatist forces and government forces, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization militarily intervened in bombing Yugoslavia.

Brief introduction of Kosovo

At that time, Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian empires divided and ruled the Balkans. The south was ruled by the Ottoman Empire, and Serbs, Bulgarians, Macedonians, Albanians and some Bosnians became vassals. The northern part is ruled by Austria-Hungary, and the ruling races include Slovenians, Croats and Vojvodinas.

Many Serbs fled to the north and west, while Albanians took the opportunity to move to Kosovo. The Ottoman Empire took measures to promote its rule. In this case, the remaining Serbs moved to the Hungarian region of the fortress empire or the Croatian region of the Adriatic Sea in the1718th century.
