The GDP data does not include Kosovo. It is not stated why in the documentation, I assume because of the fact it's not recognised by a large number of countries

Probably because the Kosovo was a part of Serbia, instead of being a Yugoslav republic.

... not really. Only slightly above 50 percent of world countries recognize kosovar independence. Not even all of the eu countries recognize it...

The Kosovo is recognized by 115 of 193 UN member states. It became part of Serbia 1912, before that it was part of the Ottoman Empire for centuries.

Maybe you can call it that way. But the Kosovo is not inhabited by Serbs, so as part of Serbia it was a colony of them. That´s why they gained independence.

Data wouldn't exist as it's obviously taken from the constituent republics.
