Hipi, the "Gora" article is NOT article about municipality, but about geographical region. The region is known under name Gora for very long time. Between 1992 and 1999 the region was also a municipality called Gora, and after 1999, the municipality was abolished and included into municipality of Dragaš, but Gora is still a name for that geographical region, which today include part of the Dragaš municipality.

This so caled "Gora region" it was a imagenedet region from Sllobodan Milosheviq. The sence it was to create a region in Kosovo after the albanians are deported in Albania. It has faled and now it is only in serbian teritoryal agresion politic agains Kosovo.

Actually, Gora has always existed - as a Zhupanate in the Roman/Byzantine/Serbian Monarchies and the Ottoman Empire. This "Dragas" is the UN "invention" from 1999. ;) --PaxEquilibrium 16:07, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

01:57, 20 February 2008 (UTC) Bulgaria and the Gorani

Slavic Torlaks live also in North-western Bulgaria in and around the towns of Chiprovtsi, Archar, Lom and Godech. They identify themselves as Bulgarians and are Eastern Orthodox Christians by religion. They are called also Zadgorski Shopi (Shopi being the peasants from the surroundings of Bulgarian capital Sofia and 'Zadgorski' meaning 'from the other side of the mountain'. Sofia and the Torlak region are divided by the western slopes of the Stara Planina mountain). So, if the Gorani are Torlaks too, they are maybe closely related to Bulgarians? There are Christian Slavs in Eastern Albania (nearly 50 000 in Golo Brdo) who speak for themselves as for "Nashintsi" and identify themselves as Bulgarians. As the Gorani also use a Slavic dialect named "Nashinski", it is possible that some claim for Bulgarian ethnic identity isn't false. Bulgarian anthropologists insist that some Slavic dialects from western Bulgaria, eastern Serbia, Kosovo, Albania and Gora are transitory and not purely Serbian or Bulgarian. It is a matter of discussion among Bulgarian intellectuals about what should be the position of Bulgaria towards the Gorani. The government doesn't demonstrate any concern for this small group of Muslim Slavs, though. A certain number of Gorani people from Prizren have already declared themselves Bulgarians and have asked the support of Bugaria for their cause which they define as cantonal autonomy within the newly declared Republic of Kosovo.
