description A comprehensive survey of the countries and territories of this region, incorporating the latest economic and political developments. General Survey Essays by acknowledged experts in the region cover a variety of topical issues. "Kosovo’s history since the first century CE was that of a region, part of the Roman, Byzantine, Bulgarian, Serbian and Ottoman Empires, consecutively, with a mixed Albanian and Slavic population. The Ottomans spread Islam among parts of the population in Kosovo and governed for around 500 years as the absolute ruler. Between 1878 and 1912, the period of the Albanian national awakening, Kosovo, with a predominantly Albanian population, was one of the regions where some nationalist organizations originated, with the aim of establishing an independent Albania. During the Balkan wars of 1912, when the state of Albania was created, Kosovo was split between the kingdoms of Serbia, principally, and Montenegro."
