Bosniak Political Parties
The Bosniaks ( bs, Bošnjaci, Cyrillic: Бошњаци, ; , ) are a South Slavic ethnic group native to the Southeast European historical region of Bosnia, which is today part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, who share a common Bosnian ancestry, culture, history and language. They primarily live in Bosnia, Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia, Kosovo as well as in Austria, Germany, Turkey and Sweden.

Because this census was boycotted by most Kosovo Serbs, leaving the Serb population underrepresented, Bosniaks were recorded as being the second-largest ethnic group in Kosovo, after the Kosovo Albanians. The vast majority of Bosniaks are adherents of Sunni Islam. Demographics The 2011 census states the number of Bosniaks in Kosovo are 27,553, with around 21,000 of them living in the municipalities of Prizren and Dragaš. Bosniaks make up 1.6% of the whole population. History Persons with the attribute ''"Boşnak"'' or ''"from Bosnia"'' are seldom mentioned among 15th century Ottoman defters.
