When the Serbian forces were annihilated in the ''Battle of Kosovo'' by the [[Directory:Turkey|Ottoman Empire]] in '''1389''' a large group of peoples stated to migrate westward. The Western Balkans started to acquire new people in its region (i.e., Croatians, Serbs, Albanians, Greeks, Turks & others), thus creating new ethnic mixes. The Ottomans themselves got to Vienna itself. During the 15th and 16 centuries the old Slavic tribal borders changed forever. In the 19th century language standardisation entered in the mix (lets not forget Latin, Romance Dalmatian Old Venetian, [Hungary|Hungarians (Magyars)]]  & Turkish).
