    Default Do Albanians have territorial pretensions on Slavic territories?

    I've seen a lot of people discussing here about Slavic peoples on this forum.

    Do Albanians have territorial pretensions on their ancient "Illyrian" territories in Montenegro, Bosnia, Croatia and Serbia?

    How do Albanians feel being removed from 80% of their territory by Slavs?

    If opportunity arise, would Albanians took the advantage and retake those territories back?

    Albanians just want the lands with a majority of Albanians to be part of Albania, I don't think we care about other lands like Dalmatia for example becoming part of Albania just because it was Illyrian

    The Albanians, these tigers of mountain wars ... have as their religion rebellion. Even their worst warrior is one of the strongest and bravest on the battle-field, just as if he was a knight on the legendary horse. But he has no horse, nor proper weapons for battle. Instead of the horse, he has a lance which strikes as lightning, he has spears who's points are full of posion as the sting of hornets, he has also a wooden bow with some arrows. Furthermore, he is stronger than iron ...

    But Albanians are Illyrians, so Dalmatia was yours, do Albanians feel a loss of Dalmatia for example.

    But what if Albanians start mass migrating to places that are not Albanian majority today but were historically? Up until fairly recently, Kosovo was majority Slavic. Not too long ago, Northwestern Macedonia was Slavic majority. IIRC, Albanians became a majority there after the Ottoman Era. And the places where Albanians are a majority is increasing every day (at least in Macedonia). Albanians are a majority in Preshevo and Bujanovac. Should those regions become part of Kosovo? Also, Albanians say that Sanjak Bosniaks are of Albanian origin. Should Sanjak also join Albania?

    Albanians have always been native to northwestern FYROM. Sanxhak Bosniaks largely carry Albanian Gheg y-lineages.

    Interesting that you choose to call it Macedonia, rather than FYROM.
