Desovo, North Macedonia. A town in the south of North Macedonia near Prilep where almost everyone speaks 3 languages: Macedonian, Albanian and Bosnian/Serbian. The reasons why involve geopolitics ranging from the Ottoman era of the 1500s right up through the Turkish-Yugoslav relations of the 1950s.

This is a story of shifting empires, demographic changes, and mass migration. But as always, it's a human story with real people on the ground, many of whom have a hilarious sense of humor. Join me as I visit Desovo and meet some of its awesome people!
