Answer:
The Balkans was a region of geographical and
ethnic variations comprising modern day Romania,
Bulgaria, Albania, Greece, Macedonia, Croatia,
Slovenia, Serbia etc. whose inhabitants were broadly
known as the Slavs. A large part of the Balkans was
under the control of Ottoman Empire. The spread of
the ideas of romantic nationalism in the Balkans
together with the disintegration of the Ottoman
Empire made this region very explosive. One by one,
European Subject nationalities broke away and
declared their Independence. As the different Slavic
nationalities struggled to define their identity and
independence, the Balkan area became an area of
intense conflict. The Balkan states hope to gain more
territory at the expenses of the others. During this
period, there was intense rivalry among the
European powers for control over this area. This
further complicated the matter. This led to a series
of wars in the region and finally the First World War.
