Part of the medieval Serbia, it was then conquered by the Ottoman Empire, later incorporated into {{atp|Serbia}} after the First Balkan War and before the constitution of Yugoslavia, later still it became the '''Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija''' within Serbia. Following the Kosovo War, the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY) relinquished governance of this territory, whose governance was taken over by the United Nations, Kosovo remained legally the sovereign territory of the FRY after the transfer of authority. The partially recognised '''Republic of Kosovo''', a self-declared independent state, has ''de facto'' control over most of the territory, while North Kosovo, the largest Kosovo Serb enclave, is under the control of institutions of the Republic of Serbia. Serbia does not recognise the unilateral secession of Kosovo, and considers it a UN-governed entity within its sovereign territory.
