PrištinaCity (pop., 2003 est.: 165,844), capital of Kosovo. Priština was the capital of the Serbian state before the Turks defeated the Balkan Christian armies in 1389 at the Battle of Kosovo. It is also a cultural centre for Kosovar Albanians. It lost many of its ethnic Albanian inhabitants in 1999 when they were driven out by the Serbian campaign of “ethnic cleansing” (see Kosovo conflict). Many returned after a peace accord was signed in June 1999. How to thank TFD for its existence?
