Info on Kosovo

Kosovo is the newest and youngest country in the world. It was once a part of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. In 2008 they declared their independence. The people of Kosovo have suffered a lot of turmoil and pain from the war between
the Albanians and Serbians that carried on for many years. It is estimated that 13,000 died and 300,000 were displaced. Over 90% of the country is Muslim (but a much smaller percentage of actual followers) and 3% Roman Catholic. The unemployment rate is roughly 40-45%. The main language is Albanian. The average annual income per captia is $3,300 (U.S. dollars).
