Albanians and Serbs have deep historical origins and national feelings for Kosovo. The former regards it as a "cradle", while the latter regards it as a "holy land".
1. The earliest inhabitants of Kosovo were Albanians. (in ancient times)
The ancestors of Albanians, the indigenous Illyrians in the Balkans, lived in Kosovo in ancient times and later surrendered to the Roman Empire and believed in Christianity.
2. The Serbs were the first people to establish a state in Kosovo. (Early Middle Ages)
Serbs are a southern Slavic people who merged with the local people from Central and Eastern Europe to the Balkans at the end of the 6th century and the beginning of the 7th century. They believed in the Orthodox Church during the Byzantine Empire. In this process, Kosovo was occupied by more and more Yugoslavs and merged into the Byzantine Empire in 10 14.
During the period of 12 17- 1459, the Serbs established their own kingdom. At its peak, two-thirds of the Balkans belonged to them, and King Stephen Duchamp claimed to be "the emperor of Serbia, Greece, Bulgaria and Albania".
3. Kosovo is a "holy land" shared by both ethnic groups. (14th century)
/kloc-After the Ottoman Empire invaded the Balkans in the 4th century, both Serbs and Albanians fought bravely against the invaders in Kosovo. 1June 389 and1June 448 are good witnesses.
The first battle in Kosovo was the battle led by the Serbian Grand Duke against the Ottoman army in the Balkans. The second Kosovo campaign was Albania's resistance to the Ottoman army. So Kosovo is a sacred place for all of them.
4. Different attitudes towards Islam and Ottoman Empire led to the separation of these two peoples in Kosovo. (Late Middle Ages)
After the Ottoman Empire conquered the Balkans, it used taxes as a bargaining chip to force Kosovo residents to change their religious beliefs. Albanians converted to Islam and became Muslims in order not to pay taxes and improve their social status; Serbs who refused to change their religious beliefs and could not bear the heavy tax burden were forced to leave Kosovo and go to areas dominated by Christianity.
Turkish rulers distributed the land and houses left by exiles to Albanians who changed their religious beliefs, and moved Albanians living in neighboring areas into Kosovo. By the18th century, Kosovo had become a region with a majority of Albanians. Generally speaking, during the 500 years of Ottoman rule, Albanians were the beneficiaries and Serbs were the victims.
5. The ethnic policy of Serbs after the recovery of Kosovo led to deep hatred with Albanians. (modern)
Only after the two Balkan wars and World War I did the Serbs regain control of Kosovo with the support of the Russians. In the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, which was established in 19 19, the dominant Serbs took revenge against the Albanians in Kosovo and expelled many Albanians to Turkey.
All aspects are discriminated against, and Albanians are deprived of many basic civil rights. For this reason, during the Second World War, the Albanians in Kosovo did not fight against German and Italian fascism with the Yugoslav people, but tried to build a greater Albania with the support of Germany and Italy.
6. After the disintegration of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, a bitter war broke out between the two ethnic groups, and the Albanians in Kosovo finally became independent with the support of international forces.
On February 1998, Albanian separatists launched an attack on patrol, causing casualties on both sides and the Kosovo war broke out. NATO announced the dispatch of warships to the Adriatic Sea, and the Six-Party Contact Group asked Yugoslavia and the Kosovo Liberation Army to start peace talks. Both negotiations failed. Yugoslavia not only refused to accept the agreement, but also stepped up its fierce attack on the Kosovo Liberation Army.
65438+1At 8: 00 pm on March 24, 1998, NATO launched a large-scale air strike against Yugoslavia that lasted for more than 70 days. Under the great pressure of air strikes and the mediation of Russia, Finland and other countries, representatives of Serbia and NATO signed an agreement on June 9, 1999. After several rounds of negotiations, Kosovo finally declared its independence on February 6, 2007.
