The Restored Serbian State and the Albanians, part I

The Restored Serbian State and the Albanians 1804-1876 Relations between the Serbs and Albanians during the 19th century were historically determined, yet contradictory in their reality. These relations were diverse and the resulting friction manifested in bitter conflicts, extreme hostility and spontaneous rapprochement.
