Friend can you give me an argument/document/folder, whatever, that the name (Sqipetar) is mentioned in the balkan before the year 1043 AD you think that you are someone and something "Old people of the Balkans" but the truth is that you are nobody and nothing newcomers, and before 1043 you were not in the Balkans,

@@greatpower8147 First of all I open a parenthesis about the name of Albania or Albanians quoted by Strabo (around 58-21/25) in the 1st century BC and Claudius Ptolemy (around 100 - 170 AD) in the 2nd century AD. It derives from the name of an Illyrian tribe, the Albanoi, which was located around the city of Albanopolis (now Zgërdhesh located in the region of Krujë). Moreover, even today, a region of Albania, from the north of Tirana (between the rivers Mat and Erzen), is called Albëni (gheg dialect) or Arbëri (tosk dialect). But this name Albanoi with its various variants (Arbanites, Arvanites, Arvanitis, Arvanos, Arban, Arbani, Arbanon, Arnavuts, Arnauts, Arbëri, Arbër, Arbëni, Arbën, Albën, Albanois, or Albanians) really began to spread when the Albanian territories became a field of hostility and a buffer zone between Byzantines and the new Slavic invaders (Serbs, Croats etc.. ...) towards the beginning of the seventh century AD. Several writers of the eleventh century, including Michel Attaliate and Jean Skyltzes, have recounted this kind of confrontation and widely spoken of these Albanian mountain tribes. It is the Angevin chancelleries (Charles I of Anjou, brother of St Louis, proclaimed himself king of Albania in 1272) which, in the 13th century, conveyed the name of Albanian or Albanians, which spread rapidly, like wildfire, throughout Europe. It should be noted that the Albanians never use this name (Albanian) to designate their own ethnic group: they call themselves Shqiptar, that is to say son or child of the eagle. Source : Albanais: histoire du Moyen Age au XXe s, P.54, Mathieu AREF (Histoire et langue) ou l'incroyable Odyssée d'un peuple préhellénique.

@@greatpower8147 Origin of the name "Shqiptar" =. More concise on the issue, the only Nobel Prize in history 🎓 is none other than Theodor Mommsen 🥇 author of the cycle "Corpus of the inscriptions of antiquity" who says that: - "the brave Epirotes, the Albanians 🇦🇱 of antiquity supported with traditional loyalty the young and brave Pyrrhus or "the Eagle" as they called him" . Let us point out in this regard that the Albanians call themselves "Shqiptar", i.e. "sons or children of the Eagle". The soldiers of Pyrrhus (3rd century BC / Epirote King), called their King "the Eagle" and that the latter gave them back one day that they were his "children", so the Albanians are the children of the Eagle... "Shqiptar = child of the Eagle .... " . (Pyrrhus was the cousin of Alexander the Great, of the Molossian tribe and himself an ambitious conqueror, Pyrrhus is one of the most formidable opponents of the early days of ancient Rome). Let's not forget that nes Epirotes were an Illyrian tribe (🇦🇱) and not Greeks! There is also another interpretation of this ethnonym: the Eagle was one of the symbols of Zeus, Pelasgian god (🇦🇱) by excellence (source: cf Homer Iliad XVI,234). The Albanians would thus be the "sons of Zeus" thus "sons of the Eagle". Besides, these last ones (Albanians), whatever their religion, still call their God Zot (Zeus = Zojz = Zot), thus recalling the divine name of Zeus. On the other hand the word Shqip, before becoming an etnhonym (Shqiptar), has always designated the "Albanian language" (language shqip = clear language). Precision: Zeus was not a Greek god! (propaganda which it is spread)... Zeus was a Pelasgian god (🇦🇱) Example : Achilles : " Zeus, sovereign lord, O prince of Dodona, O you Pelasgic Zeus (🇦🇱), distant god who rules over Dodona, in this rough country of Selles... " Source: Homer, Iliad, XVI,233/234. Achilles did not say: Zeus the Greek, Zeus the Hellene or Zeus the Mycenaean... Then why in the school books, one qualifies Zeus of Greek? (just with this quotation, one realizes that modern historiography is not honest) Karl O.Müller: The more intelligence will enter the history of Greece, the more attention will be paid to the Pelasgic element sacrificed until now. Source : (Prolegomena-1825) Epirus = Historically, tribes like the Molossians or others that made up Epirus like the Kaons, Thesprotians, Paraue, Antintans and others, are historically linked to the Illyrian (🇦🇱) culture or part of it. As Thucydides tells us about the events of the Peloponnesian War, which involved both actually Illyrians and Illyria itself, these tribes were commonly considered barbarian (non-Greek) tribes. Thucydides: - "Among the barbarians there were about 1,000 Kaons who ruled without a king. In addition to the Kaons, the Thesprotians also participated and were also governed without a king. There were also the MOLOSSIANS, the Atintants and the Paraues. Source : ( HISTORY OF THE WAR OF THE PELOPONNESE ) All these tribes, mentioned by the historian of Athenian origin Thucydides for their participation in the famous war of Peloponnese in the 5th century BC, are considered as barbarians, thus not Greek! Source : ( Thucydides II, 80- IV, 126 ) The Kaons, the Thesprotians of Chamerie, the Arintans and the Parauets constitute the backbone of what was called Epirus. Among them appear of course the Molossians where are the roots of the family of the mother of Alexander the Great! And Thucydides is not the only source which defines the Epirotes like non-Greeks. There are many others! According to the encyclopedia Basic Antiquity, composed of 86 volumes... Pauly Wissowa the real "Encyclopedia Alterumswissenschaft" says that the Epirotes are of Illyrian origin 🇦🇱 and have strong ties to the population of southern Italy! Whether or not the Epirotes are Illyrians is a discussion that, from an archaeological point of view, is resolved. The Epirotes and the Illyrians have the same culture, if we consider the Iron Age, the use of tombs, the fortifications with several rows of walls, their material culture, the shape of the pots or the ornaments which are identical to those of Korça (present Albania) and the religion. Not only ancient authors such as Thucydides, Strabo and others have called the Epirotic tribes barbarians (non-Greek), but later serious publications based on documents and archaeological findings point in the same direction. The Molosses were one of the Illyrian tribes of Epirus from which came the mother of Alexander the Great, Olympias, daughter of the king and sister of Alexander the Great. The Molosses were one of the Illyrian tribes of Epirus from where came the mother of Alexander the Great, Olympias, daughter of the king, and the sister of another well known Illyrian prince, Alexander the Molossus. Moreover the Greek armed forces committed an atrocious genocide on the Albanian civil population of Epirus (Çameria)!

@@greatpower8147 From the beginning of the Paleolithic the territory of Illyria (formerly, from the two banks of the Danube to Epirus) was occupied by men as proven by numerous discoveries of which the Karprina caves dating from approximately 160.000 years (currently in Croatia), the Gjatan cave (in Albania near Shkodër), etc. . Eugene Pittard (🇫🇷) affirmed in 1916: "I have already said elsewhere that Albania seems to me to contain the most important archaeological and anthropological documents for what concerns the origins of the MOST ANCIENT POPULATIONS OF THE BALKAN PENINSULA; populations that, at the dawn of history, we see appear under the name of Illyrians!

Thank you James!

basically it's a hybrid of heavy fortifications and guerilla warfare / he would divide his entire army into Two Half's / the first half (all infantry) would be split up into many garrisons that would defend all heavily fortified major cities, causing a difficult siege for each of them / the Other half (all Cavalry) which Skanderbeg would lead himself, split up into many small mobile guerilla bands which Would constantly Ambush, raid & Charge Ottoman supply lines, camps & unprepared troops both during the Day & Night & would also constantly aid the cities that were under siege by constantly charging the Ottoman rear at an opportune moment, foccussing on destroying provisions and siege equipment which would prolong the siege until Winter, which in turn would force that Ottoman army to retreat again

Skanderbeg was also undoubtedly The Most Successful commander amongst the entire Balkan resistance against the Ottomans and caused them the most difficulty of all, If we compare him to other legends like Hunyadi, Stephan lezarovich, Vlad Dracul & Michael the Brave, then Skanderbeg could easily be put on top with his amount of Military engagements won

Funny bit of trivia: Skanderbeg and Vlad Dracul knew each other, they were hostages together at Edirne. Vlad was traumatized by his time there, but Skanderbeg was the oldest among the hostages so he was something of an older brother figure to those princes and noblemen from all around the Balkans.

Skanderbeg actually was Serbian. According to documents of this time Skanderbeg didn’t spoke albanian but Serbian. All of his letters were written in Serbian-Cyrillic. His father and his brother were buried in Serbian monastery Hilandar on mount Athos, where his brother lived as a monk. All of his siblings had Slavic-Serbian names and his mother was Vojsava from Brankovic dynasty.

I do not know now what new virtue shines in this. Perhaps it is some new star that you have now seen among the French? Moreover, you scorned our people, and compared the Albanese to sheep, and according to your custom think of us with insults. Nor have you shown yourself to have any knowledge of my race. My elders were from Epirus, where this Pirro came from, whose force could scarcely support the Romans. This Pirro, who Taranto and many other places of Italy held back with armies. I do not have to speak for the Epiroti. They are very much stronger men than your Tarantini, a species of wet men who are born only to fish. If you want to say that Albania is part of Macedonia I would concede that a lot more of our ancestors were nobles who went as far as India under Alexander the Great and defeated all those peoples with incredible difficulty. From those men come these who you called sheep. But the nature of things is not changed. Why do your men run away in the faces of sheep? In the past the Albanese have (fatto?) experience if the Pugilese were armed; (neÕ) I would again find some who would have been able to aspired to my nature. I have well noted from the back how many of your soldiers are well armed but have never been able to see their helmets or (tanpoco?) the face except those that have become prisoners. (NeÕ?) I seek your house (Bastandomi? ) my own. Besides, it is well known that you often would have shot your neighbors for their possessions, as now you would force out the king of your house and your kingdom. (Che se?) If I fall in the difficult task I have embarked on I will be buried as (mi vai?) wishing in your letter, will bring back my soul as a reward from the Chancellor of the universe, of God. Not only will I have perfected my intention, but also I will have planned and attempted some distinguished deed. Good bye....Ó "

Hey Blendi, thank you for taking the time to write such an insightful comment. I appreciate you pointing out things that could be improved. This channel is just me, and being only human I occasionally overlook certain things (such as the Venetian coastal cities) or think omitting details will not matter to the narrative (Adding Shkoder to the map, or since I mentioned the 1453 conquest of Constantinople in the first section, since the video is long I did not want to draw too much attention to it later on, when it was chronologically fitting). Still, I strive to improve every video. As much as I want my videos to be informative and entertaining, I also learn a lot from the comment section after upload thanks to people like yourself. Take care, Oscar

@@HoH Thank you to you too Oscar, I really appreaciate your reply.

Lol "anti Albanian individuals". Why you dont got any name like "Skenderbeg" brothers or sisters,why that names aint popular in Albania,show respect to Skenderbeg and give your kids Slavic names which is used by Serbs in this whole region...Names like Staniša,Repoš,Mara,Jelena,Jela,all this names is directly from his brothers,sister and mother...

@@gloopdogg1145 It is not worth arguing with you; Skandebeg's name was George, last name Kastrioti - we still have both those names; George is spelled as "Gjergj" in Albanian; it is mostly a Christian name, but Muslims also name their sons Gjergj in Albania along with Catholics and Orthodoxs. Yes, Stanisha and others feld to Serbia after Ottomans took over Medieval Albania; George's father, John (Gjon) was a Medieval Albanian Prince (Arberia) and he was vassal to Serbian king; Principality of Arber had Serbia as their closest ally. Albanians and Serbs became enemies only after 1911.

@@gloopdogg1145 Also, Skander is a popular name among Muslim Albanians. I know one Orthodox Albanian who is named Skender, but that was done because two families; one Muslim and one Orthodox were friends so the Muslim named his son Kristo (yes Christ), and the Orthodox named his son Skender (a Muslim name in honor of Alexander the Great of Macedonia).

@@gloopdogg1145 Not sure if I told you that Russians made a movie about Skanderbeg - they said he was Albanian, never mentioned any relationship to Serbia. Part of my family is Muslim, but they celebrate Saint George Day.

fun fact: but there is no meaning in arabic nor turkish for eskender. it is a pronouncing matter. they may have mispelled it because it doesn't pass their language. in turkey the greeks are called as "yunanlılar". "yunanlı" or "yunan" for greek and "yunanlılar" for greeks. "-lar" ending makes it plural in turkish. it comes from "yunan" which was first used by persians referring to "ionian". it is a pronouncing style of a different language. mika is michael in nordic languages which comes from mikail. marry is a different pronounce of marriam . jesus is mispelling of isa. "istanbul" is also a different pronounce of constantinapolis. there is no meaning for "istanbul" in turkish. early pronounce of it was "istanpol" and more early versions were "asitane". they used the name how they first heard it. make a little research for the animal sounds and how they reflected from each languages. for example for dog sound, all the countries have different sounds. hav hav, graw, wow wow, nom nom...etc it is not because there is a different meanings in each languages, it is because what they hear when it makes that sound. japanese cannot understand difference between "r" and "l", arabs cannot understand "p" "b" and "f" difference, turks sometines use "k" "g" and "kh" for each other. west cannot understand "kh" or "ch" or "x" voice. so the christianity is spelled with "k" in west but it is with "h which comes from throat" in original. russians say "varvara" for "barbara". turks say "farfara". germans understand it as "fau" sound when it starts with "v". by the way another fun fact: the "voldemort" in harry potter fiction is a variation for "wladimir" in russion. they use the different variation of russian names for the bad characters in their tales.

@@OK-ok2cw so r u offended cause i said "misspelled" instead of "misheard"?... There is a town called Iskenderun in the southern border of modern Turkey which was formerly known as Alexandretta... Also, Constantinople is an entirely different issue... It was emperor's Konstantinos the Great City... Constantino's Poli (Polis in Greek means City, that's where Police comes from as well)....... But the Turks probably didn't want their great conquest to have the name of an emperor, and they changed it.. the legend says that they heard the Byzantines saying in Greek "Εις την Πόλη" aka "is tin poli" which meant "to the City", and City with a capital letter was only the greatest city of all, Constantinople... So from the phrase "is tin Poli" came "Is-tan-bul"... As for the Japanese and Russian, I don't even have a clue, maybe you are right.....

@@konstantinosserres3598 I know the city Iskenderun(Alexandretta) since it is my hometown. A small city in Antioch. Also there is Alexanderia in Eygpt which is prounounced same way. I am not offended but I say it is not because of the meaning, it is because of the pronouncing. in arabic, "x" is pronounced as "isk" not as "iks". These cities have hellenistic culture and most of them protect their original names. For example there is also a city called Defne in Antioch which takes its roots from Daphne the Greek mitologic figure.

@@OK-ok2cw both of you have forgotten to mention that the term hellen elen and the term Greek they are not of Greek origin...according to Aristotle the term (grai graikos) is a word of Illyro Albanian origin . used in epir for a Doric tribe...instead the term elen helen it seems to have Semitic origins

@@lagjescuni5482 Aristotle never ever mentions anywhere the word ALBANIAN cause at his time Albanians as we know them today did not exist . 2 nd , could you tell us what in modern Albanian or in Illyrian grai or grekos means ? Of curse not ,,, because it does not translate in youre language . 3 Elen -Helen seems to be of Semitic origin ? Where did you find this ? in Semitic languages it means nothing because there is no meaning . The word Hellene is the derivative of the word HELLAS witch is compromised of two words ( HENSE THE DOUBLE LL ) HEL-LAS HEL means high and, LAAS witch means stone,,, in other words ,,, people of stones or mountain people or , people born from the earth ( it has to do with with Greek mythology the story of Deukalion and Pyrra ) . Could you please tell us what the word HELLAS means in Semitic ? of course not because it means nothing . Stop spreading nonsense in matters beyond youre understanding and don't believe all the idiotic literature that Greek haters are righting ,,, read and you will find the truth , and then you will be a better man

CASTRIOTA E BRANAI(GRANAI) Castriota - First of Kastrioti kin "Der Serbe Branilo" written in Book "Allgemeine Encyclopädie der Wissenschaften und Künste, in alphabetischer Folge von genannten Schriftstellern", year 1868 Gjon Muzaka: "Skanderbeg is Serbian nature" 1573 in Sansovinova, "Historia univeryale racolta di Francesco Sansovino" clearly writes in Italian: "Very brave man, of serbian nation" Writed by Theodoro Spandugino in 16th century. Count Leopold Ranke History of the Servian People 1848 Leipzig, Germany: "Skanderbeg's family is of Serbian origin ... he married Danica, the daughter of Duke Golem." First man in history recorded with Castriot(ich) surname was called Branilo! This medieval noble who served serbian emperor Dushan, clearly beared serbian-slavic name. Tzar Stephan Dushan gave area of Jannina in Epirus to his servant Branilo to rule there. Thus, FIRST historical documents about Scanderbeg family origins are confirming his serbian origins from his father side. Walter Laqueur (1976): ,,The most successful of the opponents to Turkish rule was George Castriota - Skanderbeg. A SERBIAN by birth, he had served with distincion with Turkish army for many years and was a governor of a sanjak" Jireček, Konstantin (1876): "Skanderbeg's familie war Slavischen Ursprung. Seinen väterlichen Urgrossvater Branilo finden wir 1368 an dem Hofe Alexander's, des Herrn von Valona" ----------------- Konstantin Jiricheck (1876): "Scanderbeg's family was of slavic origin.

Source : in is work "Skanderbeg" , p.20, published in Milan (Italy) in 1940. His mother ( Skanderbeg )came from the Muzaka family (Albanian) and not from the Brankovic family ... Father was Gjon Kastrioti, son of Pal Kastrioti. Mother was Voisava from the Muzaka-Family (as stated in the memoires of Gjon Muzaka written sometime before 1510) Documents from that time only state that she was an albanian. There are no serbian documents that state she was serbian. In his memoires Gjon Muzaka (before 1510) wrote that she is a muzaka. We only have two sources from that era that give us a hint of her origin. One is geographically and the other is ethnically . Geographic source: barleti wrote that it was from polog. Member of a noble house and tribal leader. Why tribal and not Serbian? First of all, the triballi were an ancient Thraco-Illyrian ( Albanian ) tribe. The same name was again used in the Middle Ages / Byzantine era for the inhabitants of the ancient tribal area. All the people who lived in this area were called triballi (Albanians, Bulgarians and Serbs). (And let's not forget that the Tribalians were Slavised for the majority ... But remained Thraco-Illyrian/Albanian in their blood ...) Today, the majority of Albanians in Macedonia live in the Polog region (the eastern part of Macedonia). Exemple : Appianus Alexandrinus (is a Greek historien of the Roman period) who qualified the Triballians of "Illyrian origin". Source : "historia Romana". Stephanus of Byzantium ( Great lexicographer of Constantinople, lived in the 6 th century), was written in the year 528-545, declares that the "Triballians are Illyrian. Source : From Urbibus and Populis. Other authors such as Strabo, Pliny, Ptolemy and Dion Cassius, state that the Triballians are of Thraco-Illyrian origin ( Pelasgians/Albanian ) Ethnical source: Gjon Muzaka wrote in his memoires that she was a muzaka. I think with the latter source we should conclude this whole discussion. As it is a very close source - chronological and physical. The person in this case Gjon Muzaka knew Voisava personally and he fought besides Skanderbeg and skanderbegs son. So he wouldnt dare to write something he would later regret right ? He wrote those memoires sometime before 1510 so basically before the book of barleti was printed.

Kanine was Kastrioti's realm, before George became Princ of Arber and Lord of Albanians. Most of Albanian territories in 1300s were part of Serbian empire, and the Serbian Tsar who was also crowned by Byzantium as King of Serbs, Albanians and Greeks relinquished the Kanine Castle to George's father John (Gjon).

No. Kanina was part of Muzaka's territories. Anyways albanian noble families were connected with marriages...especially the three biggest families of Kastrioti,Muzaka and Arianiti. Kastrioti's old roots might be from the area of Kostur (Kosturioti - Kastrioti) that area was inhabited by albanians and was under Muzaka's control for a long time.

I am not saying that it wasn't, but in times of Skanderbeg, the Kanina Fortress belonged to the house of Kastrioti and it was a legal possession with an official document presented to John Kastrioti by the envoy of the Serbian overlord.

Well based on the information about Marie Bala ( Mary Ball ) was from the same region as the Lekë Dukagjini which was Skendeberg's right hand. As a child of an Albanian mother l can see why Washington would have been influenced to study Skenderbeg's strategy and later on applied similar strategies himself.

Therefore Albanians who live fifty or sixty miles apart do not understand each other. In addition, there are racial differences between the Gegs who live in the wild north and the Tosks in the less rugged south. One would say that they belong to different ethnicities.

Kosovo is not Serbia.Sadly thousands of our Bosniak women and young girls suffered during the aggression ,(RAPED In Brutal Ways).We should be little devils also back then and stretched out Serbian women and girls but there is always time for that in the other round ( if it comes to it ).Srebrenica was also very sad and a war crime against us Bosnian Muslims.

For first protestant i mean that he was baptized by his mother langguage and not by latin how the papacy rules said in those times

@@klodian0793 Nonsense. What was the name of the priest who baptized him?

@@user-wj5yz2pw5t his name was Pal Engjëlli in latin (Paulus Angelus) Archbishop of Durrës (Dyrrahum)

@@albionrovers6018 That so-called Albanian priest, who probably wasn't even that, was born 11 years after Skanderbeg, and I don't see how he could baptize him? Newborn children were baptized immediately after birth. They waited for that priest to grow up and acquire a priestly vocation that would allow him to baptize someone. You will have to be more careful when inventing your empty stories. And one more thing. Skanderbeg Kai and his entire family were Orthodox.

@@user-wj5yz2pw5t I wish to lean more about his orthodoxy. Because, as it was mentioned before, Pal Engjëlli was his advisor and helped a lot in Scanderbeg's diplomatic issues. Let alone his nomination as the Chief Commander of the next Crusade by the Pope himself. But anyway, not a single orthodox priest is mentioned in any record of him.

Curious fact - Albania and Hungary are the only countries in Europe surrounded, in nearly their entirety, by their own populations, Albanians and Hungarians.
