The history of Kosovo and Serbia is a very complex one. Kosovo is a former state of Serbia with a large Muslim population. Most of the Balkan nations recognize Kosovo's existance while Serbia refuses to let go. For the most part Serbia has been a insecure nation since the collapse of Yugoslavia in 1991 and the Yugoslav Wars which followed. Serbia was a powerhouse in Yugoslav descions and with its dissolution lost quite a swath of territory. The loss of Kosovo would mean even less territory and therefore does not appeal to Serbia.
