  • On the internet, when people outside the Balkans talk about the Balkans it has become almost customary to talk about the area as if it is a living meme where ultra-nationalism, corruption and poverty mean nothing "real" and consequential but are just props for the entertainment of the usually western audience which views the region in a highly exoticized way. Some will say that the memefication of the Balkans is just for laughs, but in reality it perpetuates an image which doesn't correspond to the reality of the people who live in the Balkans and reflects a hierarchical relation between the people of the Balkans and the countries which generate most memes about the "crazy Balkans".
    In this video we'll cover the complex history of the region of Sandzak, beyond the stereotypes, nationalist claims and exoticizing oversimplification. We hope that you find the end result interesting.

    Interestingly enough just like how bijelopavelic or Vasojevic tribes at that time were bilingual in albanian and slavic before being fully assimilated today, is kind of how Niksic and Drobnjaci tribes had been with slavic and vlach until the 16th century
    I mentioned those 2 since they are also pretty widespread in the region

      i am partially from sandzak(novi pazar) and it's quite obvious that a good portion of so called "bosniaks" from sandzak are albanians in origin, especially from the eastern part of sandzak/pester area(proven by genetics and historic documents)
      a lot of their paternal haplogroups are connected to albanian tribes from northern albania/eastern montenegro/malesija, especially from the kelmendi/klimenti tribe etc.

    To many wrong. There are living Boshnaks, not moslems. Boshnaks are mainly Ilirian origin, not slavic. Only the language is slavic.
    The main region of N. Sandzak was a part of the Bosnian kingdom much before the Ottoman Empire period.
    Why are you not telling that the population is mainly Boshnaks?

    Sandzak / Rashka was under serbian rule since the early 9th century with temporary bulgarian / byzantine overlords due to them having the serbs as vassals. The first known serbian dynasty called Vlastimirovic actually established their state in today´s rashka that lasted till about 960 AD. There is even a seal from one of their rulers: The seal of prince Strojimir, a descedant of this lineage.

    In the next video you should talk about the Sandzak Muslim Militia, a Muslim militia that collaborated with Italian and German occupation forces during WWII. They were mostly made up of ethnic Bosniaks and Albanians from the region and were allies with Croatian and Albanian fascists/collaborations. They fought against both the Communist Partisans and Chetniks however they were eventually defeated at the end of WWII as the region was absorbed into Yugoslavia.

      You have wrong information sir, i am from that region and i have family members who where member of that militia. Let me explain you Cetniks want to do etnic cleansing in Sanjak and Bosnia. In Sandjak Pave Djurisic u have that on peper collabred whit Italians for muntion and with Germans for strategy thats why hé was given a medial from the Hitler.
      When nazi's and the cetniks lose the war a lot of cetniks svipe to partisan and thats why Bosniaks of Sandjak militia didt trust them because they know them thats is olso the reason why they cilled Rifat Burdzevic later on the same cetniks in Partisans. That is the resion of fighting whit comunists and a lot of them like Osman Rastoder, Kadrovic didt want to go woth the comunist because they forbit rhe religion of any kind who dodt go with them they get killed later on after the war so get your information straight

But Serbian athorities today and during Yougoslavian time putted presure on those peopel and removed all theirs rights, so now Albanians with Orthodox religion called them selfs serbian and with Muslim religion call them selfs Bosnians.

    Merhaba,
    U have a really funny look on history.
    U forgot to mantion Iliricum and the land of Bassania or Bosna today wheree Sanjak in that time was part.
    Second U forgot to name when slavs came and later Namaja hé found out a nation with their own religion Bogu/mili. And the kingdom of Bosnia and their king Tvrtko.
    3. U forgot to mantion who found out Nemanja in that time catholic when hé came from Zeta to so called (later) named Raska. And why did hé cut the toung out od the tribes chiefs.
    4 u forgot to mention why did dobri Bosnjani accept Islam and why did Rome and Byzantain called Dobri Bosnjani non belivers?
    5. U forgot to mantion the same man who build Novi Pazar build Sarajevo.
    6 You forgot when Autougarain kingdom came they took by forse Bosnia and stopt until Sanjak they forbided the nation Bosniaks and teheir languege. Sanjak in that time was the last Ottoman province who stand. With the hulp or christians otodoks lands and Rome Serbs and Monetegirians took it by forse but still soulded rules even until this days in Sandjak.
    U forgot that with the Berlin congres Sandjak was free! U fogort to mention that in ww1 ww2 etnic cleanst. And still the haed centar was not ruled thats why they ( cetniks ) had to pick up their bones from our fighter Jusuf Mehonjic,Kadrovic,Rastoder,Hadziahametovic. Etc.
    7. You forgot to mention that Sandjak hade their autonomy ww2 thats why they ( cetniks) hade to kill Rifat Burdzevic. And Tito would give the autonomy of this region but the MNE and Serbs where agaist it. All of until 90's even the Serbs (cetniks) Montenegrians called it Sandjak, in 2008 with the hulp of the same Bosniaks Monenegro did get their country back and today they dont evene want to hear abbout the autonomy of Sanjak
    8. When u mentioned Albanians they are 2 a3 tribe who came and seatled Kelmendi and Klimenti who wheree here save because of the Islam you Christian Albanians togheter with Monenegrians and Serbs moved them out. Thats why u give to the Serbs Karadjordje ex Albanian who was whore that cetniks remeber Sjenica.
    9. When u make this kind of video's use at leest the footege of images from citys of Sandjak not cLitas of Montenegro of Serbian castles and churches from Serbia.
    10. The medieval castle what u show naar Pazar is Ilirian castle ( their is a difrence in Iliran tribes and languge as today albanians remeber that? Today serbian autoritys dont allow people to do reasersch abbout that.
    11. When u mention all of this in a + to Albanians and Serbs u should mentions when did nation being created and their borders!
    Its nice thatu tray to learn, but not wiht the fake stories who write pro serbian and pro albanian or pro monegrian poeple. But the trurth is on our side.

      Half truths and half fallacies. Yes Nemanja did came from Zeta to request the adaption of Raška, they were originally Catholic, but then converted to Orthodox Christianity due to Saint Sava or Rastko, however there is no evidence that he cut the “chiefs” tongue, no scholars supports this.
      Another thing is, since you know the truth about “Sandžak” and it’s not the original name of “Raška” or “Arsa” or “Ratka” which in other words means “Warrior” in Slavic terms.
      Just because Serbs and Montenegrins called “Sandžak” does not require them to know the truth. We all know the truth. It’s original name Is Raška or Ratka, or how Albanians called it “Arsa”
      It’s simple. I’m not serb, I am Slovak, but there is a lot of accuracy in this video that this individual made. Even though there are some I could critique on. But that’s a different story.
