Pristina, Prishtina (KOSOVO) 4K UHD

In ancient history, the Vinča culture lived in the area. The city was part of the Roman Empire between 28 BC and 850 AD. After that, the Byzantine and Bulgarian Empires fought for control, taking Kosovo back and forth, between 850 and 1180. Then it became part of the Kingdom of Serbia. For most of that time, it was the capital of Serbia. When the Serbs lost the Battle of Kosovo, the Ottoman Empire took the city. They brought Islam to Kosovo. While Kosovo was part of the Ottoman Empire, most Albanians became Muslims. Some Slavs did too. In the 1680s, the Austrian Empire conquered Kosovo for a short time, but it was retaken by the Ottomans. In 1912, Albanian rebels led by Hasan Pristina took the city. A few months later, the Kingdom of Serbia captured Pristina. Then, in the Second Balkan War, the Bulgarian Empire took Pristina from Serbia. Then, in December 1918, French colonial troops took Pristina, and gave it to the Kingdom of Serbia, which was now known as the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes. In the next years, Serbs would take Turkish land and property by force. Most Turks left, and some Albanians did too. ______________________________________________________________ El nombre de la ciudad es una forma derivada del eslavo *Prišьčь, un adjetivo posesivo del nombre personal *Prišьkъ, (conservado en el apellido kajkaviano de Prišek, en el antiguo polaco como nombre personal Przyszek, y en el apellido polaco Przyszek) el sufijo derivativo —ina 'perteneciente a ... y su parentela'. Probablemente el nombre es un patronímico del nombre personal *Prišь, conservado como un apellido en el polaco Przysz y el sorbiano Priš, un hipocorístico del nombre personal eslavo Pribyslavъ. Una falsa etimología relaciona el nombre Priština con el serbocroata prišt (пришт), significando 'úlcera' o 'tumor', refiriéndose a su 'ebullición'.3​ Sin embargo, esta explicación no puede ser correcta, ya que los topónimos eslavos que terminan en —ina corresponden a un adjetivo y/o nombre de un habitante que carece de este sufijo se construyen de nombres personales o denotan a una persona y nunca se derivan, en estas condiciones, de nombres comunes . Los habitantes de esta ciudad se autodenominan Prishtinali, en el dialecto albanés guego o Prištevci (Приштевци) en el dialecto local serbio. #Prishtina #Приштина #Pristina FACEBOOK: INSTAGRAM: mestravel8things FOR CONTACT: mestravel8things@ #alldaytravel, #aroundtheworldpix, #instatravelling, #instavacation, #travelgram, #travel,#destinationearth, #eartspics, #earthgallery, #earthcapture, #traveler, #traveller, #instatraveller.
