You're an incompetent Russian who knows jack shit about history.

These people expanded into Albanian territory , proven through placenames and documents but that's not the relevant part as all humans have migrated. Point is, your history here is fake. Manipulated that place history. And started ethnic conflict. All started in the 19th century and invented in the 19th-20th century. Pretty much pulled theories right out of your ass. You fail to explain why these Ottoman registers show large parts of Kosova inhabited by Albanians in the 15th and 16th centuries. Why did the Ottomans name the western part of Kosova after an Albanian family 'Dukagjini' , the name 'Metohija' is a later invention.

You cannot pull some theory out of our ass of some incoming Albanians during those periods which there is no evidence of . You're using later events which ocurred largely in the 18th century to make such statements. And you're just living on the glory of some past medieval empires. By that logic the Turks and Italians could claim Europe.


You fail to explain when these people expanded into Dardanian territory why they mention Albanians and why there are even placenames of Albanians in the Nish area, Macedonia and all across Dardanian territory including Vlachs. Yes these are people who just magically appeared. You're the originals, glory to you!



You most certainly have no claim to these lands . This is a complete joke.

You invaded these territories:

The first major Slav raids took place in the middle of Justinian's reign. In 547 and 548 they invaded the territory of modern Kosovo, and then (probably via Macedonia and the Via Egnatia across central Albania) got as far as Durres on the northern Albanian coast. [4] More substantial invasions took place in the 580s, bringing Slavs deep into Greece. Historians used to think that it was only these later invasions that involved any permanent settlement; but there is evidence of Slav place-names in the Balkans - particularly along the river Morava - by the 550s, which suggests a more continuous process of infiltration. [5] One factor which may have turned the southward movement of Slavs from a trickle to a flood was the arrival, in the north-western part of the Balkans, of an especially warlike Turkic tribe, the Avars, who subjugated or coopted some Slavic tribes but drove many others away. By the early seventh century the Avar armies were raiding as far as the walls of Constantinople, and threatening the very existence of the Byzantine Empire.

By the mid-seventh century, Serbs (or Serb-led Slavs) were penetrating from the coastal lands of Montenegro into northern Albania. Major ports and towns such as Durres and Shkodra held out against them, but much of the countryside was Slavicized, and some Slav settlers moved up the valleys into the Malesi. By the ninth century, Slav-speaking people were an important element of the population in much of northern Albania, excluding the towns and the higher mountainous areas (especially the mountains in the eastern part of the Malesi, towards Kosovo). [8] Slav-speaking people lived in the lowlands of this area, gradually becoming a major component of the urban population too, until the end of the Middle Ages.

Only in the ninth century do we see the expansion of a strong Slav (or quasi-Slav) power into this region. Under a series of ambitious rulers, the Bulgarians - a Slav population which absorbed, linguistically and culturally, its ruling elite of Turkic Bulgars - pushed westwards across modern Macedonia and eastern Serbia, until by the 850s they had taken over Kosovo and were pressing on the borders of Rascia. Soon afterwards they took the western Macedonian town of Ohrid; having recently converted to Christianity, the Bulgar rulers helped to set up a bishopric in Ohrid, which thus became an important centre of Slav culture for the whole region. And at the same time the Bulgarians were pushing on into southern and central Albania, which became thoroughly settled by Bulgarian Slavs during the course of the following century. [19]

Kosovo was to remain under Bulgarian or Macedonian rulers until 1014-18, when the army of the Macedonian-based Tsar Samuel died, his empire broke up, and Byzantine power was fully re-established by a strong and decisive Emperor, Basil 'the Bulgar-killer'. For nearly two centuries after that, Kosovo would stay under Byzantine rule. [20]

Tell me why the fuck are there Albanians toponyms in Nish and why the fuck do these people mention Albanians even there when they expanded ??????!??????

Well, Vlach World always interacted with Slav World even without Orthodoxy. Dragomir, Radomir, Dobromir, Tatomir, Tihomir are indeed Slavic names but none of them is included in "Calendar of the saints" by which the names were usually given, so I think it's more a cultural, than religious influence.

For example, an Orthodox Christian who is baptized today, should normally choose from this list:



So, Diomide, Xerimon, Constantin, Alexander, Anna, Iacov.

Now it's not so strict, so if the person choose the name which belongs to the holiday of another day's saint, he will celebrate it on the closest day next to his birthday. I'm born 18.11, day of my saint is 24.11, the saint martyr Victor of Damascus.

It is like name Baldovin among Serbs in the high and late middle age. Baldovin is name of western origin, but existed among Serbian nobility and lower social classes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baldovin
Name Baldovin probably arrived with crusaders when they passing by Serbian lands.

In the St. Stephen Chrysobull of Serbian king Milutin among vlachs from northern Kosovo is name Baldovin https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Stephen_Chrysobull
Katun Bobojevaca: primićur Vojsil, Kosta, Hrane s bratom, Boljeslav s bratom, Radoslav s bratom, Radeš, Vojihna, Runko, Đurađ s decom, Mile, Vojihna, Bratoslav, Bogoje, Milan, Bogdan, Dunav, Ljuba s bratom, Radota, Bogdan, Bratula, Hrana s bratom, Hlap, Mana, Hranča, Prodan s bratom, Hrs, Dobromir s bratom, Bogdan, Dražoje s bratom, Stanimir, Krajimir, Kalopa brat mu, Rajko Bratanović, Hranislav Hrsović, Rajul Draganović, Radota Dudetić, Baldovin.

You were a small irrelevant tribe that multiplied too much in the 20th century.


Census 1930. in Albania - only 833,618 inhabitants (not all of them ethnic Albanians)
Census 1989. in Albania - 3,182,417 inhabitants

Census 1931. in Yugoslavia - only 505,259 Albanians
Census 1991. in Yugoslavia - 2,178,393 Albanians



No history of small tribes.



But luckily, there is now massive exodus of them from all Balkans.

Prizren was capital of Serbia one period in the middle age, it's full of Serbian medieval history http://www.serbia.com/visit-serbia/c...onstantinople/

Prizren is not in Kosovo regionally, but in Metohija https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metohija

The town was named after the Nišava River, which flows through the city. It was first named Navissos by Celtic tribes in the 3rd century BC. From this term comes the Latin Naissus, the Greek Nysos and the Slavic Niš. It have nothing to do with Albanians.

Bravo Rita Ora! hahahahahahah
