Kosovo's population before 1999 was about 80% Albanian; ethnic Albanians now make up about 88% of the inhabitants. Serbs are the largest minority, concentrated especially in the north along the Ibar River. The Albanian, Serbian, Bosniak, and Turkish languages are spoken. The main religions are Islam (largely Albanians), the Serbian Orthodox church (largely Serbs), and the Roman Catholic church.
