The Church in Albania: From Ottoman Empire to Communism to? - The Irish Family

An old Albanian saw goes as follows: 'Where the sword is, there lies

religion' . Thus, under the long years of Ottoman rule, up to 70% of

second-class citizenship imposed on non-Muslims. Before then, Albania's

strategic location on the marches between western and eastern Christianity

saw its people divide into largely northern Catholics and southern

Orthodox.

Once Albania and Kosove become part of the EU than my advice to my Albanian readers is that they should get dual citizenships so that they can have a EU passport and can go anywhere in Europe with out any problems. I know you may be thinking that the US passport is the key to the world but the way our country is now with the gas and food prices rising its not bad to have a back up plan.
