Yeah, I grew up in neighbouring Hungary, and I remember the Kosovo war was often mentioned at the time by the adults around me, but as a child it felt like a world away, so alien from the peaceful society I grew up in :(
It really struck me, while reading this article, how strongly it still affects the people living there. But of course it makes sense, it was only 25-30 years ago, barely a generation.
