Summary/Abstract: This article concerns the Serbian interests in Kosovo in the late 19th century and discusses two Serbian-Turkish Wars in 1876-1878. As a result, the vast majority of the Albanians, who lived in what is now southern Serbia, were forced to leave their homes. Although the Albanians posted petitions to consulates in the Ottoman Empire, which tried to negotiate with Serbia the possibility of returning Albanian refugees, their property rights enshrined in the Treaty of Berlin were ignored. The article is focused also on the consequences of the Albanian exodus.
