[edit] Flag of SAR Kosovo

Did Socialist Autonomous Province of Kosovo have its own flag and emblem? --Camptown 11:23, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

No. Only republics of SFRY had flags and emblems, but not autonomous provinces. PANONIAN (talk) 17:12, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] S.A.P. Kosova (and Metohija)

The name of the souther province in Socialist Serbia was Socialist Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija.

Kosovo is just one part of it, and Metohija is another. There was no political division between two of them, just geographical. Even in present Serbia, official name for province is also Kosovo and Metohija. But, in UN documents after 1999, someone pushed name Kosovo, so it is now international. Anyway, I do not think that we can go in history and change all the names. --Iricigor 18:00, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Before 1974, it was Kosovo and Metohija, but in 1974 it was changed to just Kosovo (and changed back later). Nikola 03:43, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
