Especially Albania, Greece, and the people who declare Macedonians, should be united at this point. If our history is what we think we are, then we've been friends and allies (and then parts of Roman Empire of Greece) for not just centuries, but millenia. It goes without saying that we should be good friends and allies.

    Thank you for recognizing that Albanians are part illyrians.There is so much debate around this topic and many whom deny Albanians illyrian heritage despite many evidence suggesting that it's most likely we are descendants.At least partially.We are a mix of original native balkanic people,illyrians,settlers and so on.Many say we aren't illyrians because they were indo European,that our language aligns more with Romania and that our traditions aren't the same.But they don't take into consideration the fact that illyrians were a brotherhood not bloodline,the colonization from the Roman's and Greeks wich were nutritious for erasing cultures,words that do align with illyrian language and the fact that Albania has been influenced and has changed over the years.Not to mention that illyrian artifacts were commonly found in Albanian grounds and that Albanians share 20 to 30% of their dna with illyrians.

    "Finally, part of various Albanianization campaigns was also Decree No. 5339 of September 23, 1975 on changing inappropriate first names and surnames, which was intended to prevent the assignment of "first names that were unsuitable from a political, ideological, moral point of view" and, although not directly, but at least indirectly directed against the minorities. In the same context is the forced change of geographical designations (especially place names) with religious or foreign language reference in this time phase. Even archaeological sites of the Greek and Roman times were renamed "Illyrian".
