The Serbian Orthodox Church in Kosovo[a] is the second largest religious denomination after Islam. It has 100,000-120,000 followers in Kosovo, predominantly made up of the Kosovo Serbs, who mostly live in the North Kosovo region and in some enclaves in the south (such as Štrpce).[1]

During 1999–2004, 140 Serbian Orthodox churches were destroyed. 30 of those were destroyed in the 2004 unrest in Kosovo, and many were destroyed in the 2008 unrest in Kosovo. The Republic of Kosovo decided to accept the Serbian Orthodox Church after the unrest and help Serbian families rebuild their homes and churches.Future Enterior, Harvard university[2]
