I've only solved some of the clues, but I believe the answer is...

Former capitals of the world!

1. Lost consciousness's rate of return is Spanish valuables in Swedish valuables. (5)

Lost consciousness = KO
Rate of Return = ROR

Spanish valuable = Oro (Gold)
Swedish valuable = Kr (Krona, the national currency)
Oro in Kr = Koror.

Koror is the former capital of Palau.

4. Dear Masalas, a Russian gift with an Arab greeting. (11)

Dear Masalas is an anagram for Dar es Salaam

Dar is gift in Russian.
Salaam is an Arab greeting.

Dar es Salaam is the former capital of Tanzania.

5. Actor Martin messed up or actor Smith with no head. (4)

Dean Martin was an actor and singer. Aden is Dean scrambled.

Jaden Smith is an actor and rapper. Aden is Jaden without the head (the letter J).

Aden is the former capital of Yemen.

6. Returning in noble elongated French good stuff. (4)

Bonn is in the phrase "returning in noble" backwards

Bon is good in French.
Bonn is "bon" elongated.

Bonn is the former capital of Germany.

8. Polish colony is a universal donor and a poker commentator in a Korean automobile (7)

Colony in Polish = Kolonia

Universal Donor = O-
Korean automobile = Kia
Poker commentator = Lon (McEachern)
Universal Donor and Lon in Kia = Kolonia

Kolonia is the former capital of Micronesia

9. A rabid janitor shows muscle and passport to a Czech revolutionary. (7)

Rabid janitor has Abidjan in it

Abs are muscles
Your passport is an ID
Jan (Palach) was a Czech political protester who set himself on fire

Abidjan is the former capital of Cote d'Ivoire.

10. New York crime lord or Latin country meets a gaseous end. (7)

Colombo is a prominent NY crime family

Colombia + gaseous end (O = Oxygen) = Colombo.

Colombo is the former capital of Sri Lanka.

I'll try to come up with the others.

Number 5 is

Aden

Actor Martin messed up or actor Smith with no head

Dean (Martin) messed up is Aden; Jaden (Smith) with no head is Aden

Number 7 is

East Berlin (former capital of East Germany)

Let Serbian mixologists have Oriental doughnut parts. (10)

Anagram of 'Let Serbian'. Struggling with the second half though. Although a Berliner is a doughnut like cake, so an Oriental doughnut could be an E Berliner.
