North Kosovo or Northren Kosovo (Serbie: Северно Косово, Severno Kosovo; Albanie: Kosova Veriore) refers tae a territory in the northren pairt o the disputit region o Kosovo, wi an ethnic Serb majority that functions independently frae the remainder o the region, which haes an ethnic Albanie majority.[1][2] Ibarski Kolašin (Serbie Cyrillic: Ибарски Колашин; Albanie: Kollashini i Ibrit), a toponym that pre-dates the poleetical pairtition, is uised tae refer tae the aurie an aw. Neither the name nor the boondary haes ony offeecial status in either Kosovar Albanie or Serbie designation: tae Pristina, the borders mark a laund which is left alane tae function autonomously; tae Belgrade, the entire region remains subject tae the terms o the Kumanovo Treaty.
