Çabër or Čabra is a village located in the municipality of Zubin Potok, in Kosovo.[a] The river Ibar runs through Çabër.

History[]

According to legend, there were two brothers and their nephew who came to Çabër first and gave it its name. Eventually a village was formed and grew to have a large population. The brothers and their nephew allegedly came from Qafë Prush, which is located on the border of Kosovo (Gjakova) and Albania. The most common surnames in the village are Uka, Kurti, and Mehmeti.

Notes[]

  1. ^ Kosovo is the subject of a territorial dispute between the Republic of Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia. The Republic of Kosovo unilaterally declared independence on 17 February 2008. Serbia continues to claim it as a part of its own sovereign territory. The two governments began to normalise relations in 2013, as part of the 2013 Brussels Agreement. Kosovo is currently recognised as an independent state by 97 out of the 193 United Nations member states. In total, 112 UN member states have recognised Kosovo at some point, of which 15 states later withdrew their recognition.
