I don’t know what it is about Albania. When I was in the military in the early 60s, I was at a base in southern Italy, due west of Albania. When they planned on building the base, the Soviet Navy had planned to build their submarine pens there, but after that “shovel ready project” got underway, Albania split from the USSR and got in bed with China, whom we called “Red China.” I have some buds who went in there after the fall of the USSR and they told me they’d never been to such a primitive place. And now Albania is the sex trade capital of Europe, plus all kinds of other vices. And approximately 60% of the population have surnames with no vowels.
Enver Hoxha’s rule in Albania, made North Korea look tame by comparison.
The only good thing about it, was that he wiped out Islam for the most part in Albania (unfortunately along with Christianity as well). The only religion in Albania is Albanianism.
