At Markos Botsaris’s reburial, King Otto hears Greek clerics call the heroes of 1821 “Arvanite leaders”. Not knowing what this meant, he asks and is then told bluntly, “Albania gave birth to the heroes of your nation”, by Greek Metropolitan Porphyrios.
I have read extensively on Ottoman Albania, primarily international historians. There was NO single century, in which there wasn't a rebellion somewhere in Albanian lands. Parts of Albania were NEVER under Ottoman rule. The Ottomans saw Albanians in mountains as 'unruleable'.
When I post about the Ottoman Empire I sometimes see people from other Balkan countries making fun of Albania. Mainly for converting to Islam and being more aligned with their Turkish conquerors. In contrast to Alabania, Serbia and Greece (to take two examples) retained a…
x.com/i/status/20021… Arvanite Y-DNA (allegedly) has little to no cladality with that of Albanians, thus supposedly cementing the idea that they must overwhelmingly come from a Non-Albanian context. Even if true, the same person corroborating this has also said that ancestry…
🧵 I’ve explored the background of Arvanites extensively here on X. This time, I compiled their patrilineages from the Greek DNA project, and the overall picture aligns with my earlier assessments about their origins.
The Souliotes in a letter to the Russian tsar made it absolutely clear that they had ‘nothing in common with other Greeks’, and Mazower states they felt more kinship to Muslim Albanians than to Greeks of the same faith. You people are retarded & need to be sent back to Anatolia
The Albanian version is EXpresso instead of Espresso.
Albanian is probably the only language that has all 7 days of the week named after astronomical bodies: E hënë - after Moon E martë - after Mars E mërkurë - after Mercury E enjte - after Jupiter E premte - after Venus E shtunë - after Saturn E diel - after Sun.
Mazower notes the Greek president used Albanian to avoid being understood by his allies. However, Georgios Kountouriotis, his vice president, and many "Greek" leaders of Arvanite descent could not speak much Greek and usually conversed exclusively in Albanian.
This you? x.com/qendresaa20/st… Reminder your children won’t be able to post that due to your choices.
filipino priest is insane 😵💫😵💫😵💫 ku jeni o shqiptar
🇦🇱 Kurbin, Albania - a Muslim village celebrates Saint Michael, a Catholic feast. God bless you all. Only in Albania can you see Christians and Muslims celebrating together. Most Albanians aren’t very religious the majority identify as irreligious or simply Albanian above all.
🚨 KARABURUN OFFICIALLY SOLD Albania's government has bestowed 'strategic investor' status to an Italian hotelier who wants to build a tourist resort in a nature reserve in southern Albania, in Kepi i Shëngjergjit, next to Haxhi Aliu’s cave The peninsula is home to the heavily…
According to Mazower, the Souliots felt no nationalistic or patriotic ties to Greece or the Greek cause. Instead, they felt more kinship with the Albanian Muslims under Ali Pasha Tepelena, despite having quarreled with them constantly for decades since his rise to power.
Im sure inviting “doctors” who work for 600 euro a month will help everyone. The medical system was already a joke, but this move will legitimately kill more people.
Italy's public broadcaster launches its first Arbëresh radio and TV programs tomorrow. The programs aim to celebrate and preserve the identity and culture of the Arbëresh community.
That’s a beautiful, smart, and patriotic Albanian right there that I respect. Kosovo is Albania, and in her confidence you can see the strength of an entire nation. The flag she talks about carries centuries of struggle, strength, & unity that no Albanian should ever forget. 🇦🇱
Nose absolutely different here 😂 Leave our med noses alone
