Pristina is nicer than you might expect and yes, Kosovars are very welcoming and friendly people, unlike some of their neighbors. Wouldn't put it at the top of a list of European countries worth visiting, but I'm happy I got to go there.

I wish this question had been on this quiz: A 10-foot high statue of this U.S. president stands in the capital. Well, if you ever reset this quiz...

It's still relatively new and it just hit the front page for the first time today, so there's still plenty of time for someone to throw the first punch.

The last question is inaccurate, at least. I mean that the widely known name for that region in preRoman times usually is Illyria (Illyricum). Please accept that answer

quoting Wiki:

The Dardani became one of the most powerful Illyrian states of their time under their king Bardylis.[7] Under the leadership of Bardylis, the Dardani defeated the Macedonians and Molossians several times, reigning over upper Macedonia and Lynkestis. Bardylis also led raids against Epirus.[7]

The region of Illyria was conquered by Rome in 168 BC, and made into the Roman province of Illyricum in 59 BC. The Kosovo region probably became part of Moesia Superior in AD 87, although archaeological evidence suggests that it may have been divided between Dalmatia and Moesia.[3]

The quiz is incorrect and imprecise. Kosovo was never a part of Yugoslavia, nor the Ottoman Empire. It was not an independent country during those times, but part of Serbia. The only "empire" it was a part of technically in the past was the Serbian Empire.

Please stop spreading incorrect information!

That is a really stupid argument. Maybe it wasn’t an independent country at the time, but the region that is now Kosovo most certainly existed and it was was part of the Ottoman Empire and Yugoslavia.
