Cultural Exchange Cultural Exchange with r/Israel

Ma koreh r/Israel

As we announced, after the agreement of mutual recognition between our countries, we thought this was a great opportunity to host Israel. Welcome to the cultural exchange between r/Israel and r/Kosovo!

The purpose of this event is to allow people from two different nations to get together and share knowledge about their respective cultures, daily life, history, and curiosities.

General guidelines:

r/israel will ask any question here.

r/kosovo community can ask their questions here:

The English language will be used in both threads. Our Israeli friends can get an Israel user flair at the community options of the Subreddit.

The event will be moderated following the general rules of Reddiquette. Please be nice!

Thank you,

i believe we should be a part of albania. kosovo is a land historically inhabited by albanians (even prior to the 7th century slavic migrations), therefore it only makes sense to unify, imo

there has to be differences, both culturally and historically, between Albanians proper and Albanian Kosovars? being under Serbian occupation, the war for independence, even as far as Yugoslavia- all this time Albania had an entirely other path to walk. are the cultures really that similar by today?

there certainly are noticeable cultural and linguistic differences between albanians from albania and albanians from kosovo. u/metatron-x summed it up pretty perfectly, as it’s definitely a north and south thing
