The only institutions that gave some confidence to Serbs were the Church and the
Army. The largest number of Serbian churches and monasteries are on Kosovo. Some of
these sanctuaries are from the 12 th and 13 th centuries. 32 Albanian separatists did not have
to make special effort to suppress Church because the communist party was more than
sufficient at doing that job. After WWII communists usurped thousands of hectares of
churches land and gave it to Albanians. Different than in other post-communist regimes,
Church never received this land back. However, Serbs priests are still in Kosovo as the
last representatives of Serbian continuity in this province/independent country (depends
from which perspective).
