Abner, Noone has answered a question that I raised here a few days ago: The Albanians- did they fight alongside the Serbians against the Fascist German invaders in WWII; did they stay neutral, or were they Nazi collaborators? Anyone with a knowledge of Balkans' politics in WWII-could you answer this? Forget my question_ I see that "goldsnow" answered it a few notes ago... see below. And I agree with "goldsnow". Don't make too much out of religion here. There are greater geopolitical forces at work ... goldsnow's answer: ET Reply # of 4309 Italy invaded Albania in April of 1939 and made it part of Italian Empire (World War II began later this year)when Italy surrended in 1943 Germans occupied Albania. Most were collaborators, but..During the war there were three resistance movement they did fight against Germans and even more against each other (nationalists, royalists and communists led by future dictator Enver Hoxha who took over in 1944 after Germans were driven-out) By the way as far as religion-Hoxha outlawed religion and demolished all mosques, so it is not about religion, but about nationalism... Sincerely, Doug F.
