The Albanians' dominant haplogroup is E-V13, which is historically associated with the Illyrians. E-V13 is also high amongst Albanians in North Macedonia (34%) and Albanians in Albania (24%). It is found at low to moderate frequencies in most Slavic populations. E-V13 may have spread to Britain with the Roman Army that was composed of men of Balkan ancestry, including Thracians, Illyrians and Dacians (Bird 2007).
Haplogroups in the modern Albanian population is dominated by E-V13, the most common European sub-clade of E1b1b1a (E-M78).[3] E-M78 most likely originated in northeastern Africa, while its subclade E-V13 originated in western Asia, and first expanded into Europe some 5300 years ago.[3] The current distribution of this lineage might be the result of several demographic expansions from the Balkans, such as that associated with the Balkan Bronze Age, and more recently, during the Roman era with the so-called "rise of Illyrican soldiery".[133][134][135][136][137] The peak of the haplogroup in Kosovo, however, has been attributed to genetic drift.[134]

Abstract
The invasion of Britain by the Roman military in CE 43, and the subsequent occupation of Britain for nearly four centuries, brought thousands of soldiers from the Balkan peninsula to Britain as part of auxiliary units and as regular legionnaires. The presence of Haplogroup E3b1a-M78 among the male populations of present-day Wales, England and Scotland, and its nearly complete absence among the modern male population of Ireland, provide a potential genetic indicator of settlement during the 1st through 4th Centuries CE by Roman soldiers from the Balkan peninsula and their male Romano-British descendants. Haplotype data from several major genetic surveys of Britain and Ireland are examined, analyzed and correlated with historical, epigraphic and archaeological information, with the goal of identifying any significant phylogeographic associations between E3b1a-M78 and those known Romano-British settlements and military posts that were associated specifically with Roman soldiers of Balkan origin. Studies by Cruciani et al. (2007), Perečić et al. (2005), and Marjanovic et al. (2005), examining the distribution of E3b1a-M78 and E3b1a2-V13 in the Balkans, are analyzed further to provide evidence of phylogeographic associations between the E3b1a2 haplotypes identified within the Balkans by these studies and those regions of the Balkans occupied first by the Roman army in antiquity. E3b1a2 is found to be at its highest frequency worldwide in the geographic region corresponding closely to the ancient Roman province of Moesia Superior, a region that today encompasses Kosovo, southern Serbia, northern Macedonia and extreme northwestern Bulgaria. The Balkan studies also provide evidence to support the use of E3b1a-M78 (in the present study) as a close proxy for the presence of E3b1a2-V13 (representing 85% of the parent E3b1a-M78 clade) in both the Balkans and in Britain.

I'm also E-V13, one thing's for sure it comes from Southeast Europe or the Balkans in general. My theory is that most people who have this haplogroup, they had one ancestor who was at least genetically ,,Greek'' or like a Greek. I'm very close to all South Slavs genetically.
It's one of the most common haplogroups among South Slavs so all I know is that I definitely had South Slavic ancestors (Thracians, Illyrians, etc you name it). I actually get decent amounts of Greek sometimes on G25, my father gets even more.
My recent ancestry map from ADNTRO (pretty accurate if you ask me, but no Hungary which is a surprise):
