No idiot, it's not true. How many times we have to explain to you? Ksilokefale.
The collaboration with Axis was not an Albanian phenomenon let alone Cham phenomenon. Do you know the origin of the term Quisling? I doubt.
There were Chams who collaborated with Axis and others who fought in the ranks of Albanian partisans or with Greek resistance:

Stop spreading disinformation you ignorant.
Folk dance societies in former Yugoslavia performed traditional dances from all over the country. Vranjaska svita has been often in the repertoire of these folk dance societies. I could not care less for your delusional idiotisms. I react only when you spread lies about Serbs and Serbian culture. You always poke your nose into threads related to the Serbs and former Yugoslavia always demonstrating pathological hate towards Serbs, but you wrote here that your neighbors are obsessed with Greeks.
Lol Oriental stuff like dolmades and giouvarlakia all of which can be traced to Byzantine Greece and Oriental Asian Minor music like Rembetika which is also Greek. Or maybe did you have in mind "Turkish" coffee which can also be found throughout the Balkans? As if the Byzantines did not trade with the Yemenis and Ethiopians before the arrival of Turks! They had been waiting the nonadic Turks, who even today are avid tea drinkers and don't drink much coffee, to introduce Turkish coffee to Greeks!
Albania literally had a civil war because one part of the population wanted to remain apart of the Ottoman empire so how can religion not play a role in your identity? It's basically the only former-Ottoman nation to hold pro-Ottoman sentiments even to this day, and you're saying this had/has nothing to do with religion?

Quote:
Haxhi Qamili and his supporters were reported to have persecuted, bound, tortured and killed many teachers of the Albanian language. Because he supported the usage of the Arabic alphabet (as opposed to the Latin one), he viewed them as enemies of Turkey.
Really?!Quote:
The pro-Ottoman peasants believed that the new regime of the Principality of Albania was a tool of the six Christian Great Powers and the landowners that owned half of the arable land. Revolt was led by Muslim leaders Haxhi Qamili, Arif Hiqmeti, Musa Qazimi and Mustafa Ndroqi. This group of discontented Muslim clerics gathered around Essad Pasha Toptani who proclaimed himself the savior of Albania and Islam.
Karamanlides wrote with the Greek alphabet and had a Greek conscience despite the fact they were like the Kurds of today, not allowed to speak Greek in public. Besides the Karamanlides who lived isolated, all other Asia Minor Greeks preserved perfectly well their language. Even today they speak diverse archaic Greek dialects, who will soon go extinct because their descendants prefer to speak standard Greek.
In Italy, what’s south of Rome was controlled by non-European, non-Western Arabs (Sicily) and Byzantines (Napoli region area). Until Norman masters took over by slaying Greeks and Arabs.
It’s why south Italy, just like Spain and Portugal which were controlled by Moors, missed the genesis of European/Western civilization. But later they have been Europeanized.
So Greek OWD’ers should forget about it.
You are kin with Serbs, Romanians, Bulgarians.
You are same Eastern, non-Euro Orthodox civilization.
Byzantine culture in European countries is full European.
You use Italy in this comparasion, but Italy also are hard influenced by Byzantine culture.
I think Greece is more similar to Italy than to Serbia, because Serbia have not mediteranean culture, and Greece have not central European culture. Also Greece and Italy both have not dinaric culture like Serbia have.
