I had 2 people from korca in my High school they were brothers , both were with really light blond hair and Green eyes but their face was very Albanian.
I think they should have some Slav ancestry because their hair colour was almost white like

It's in the History of Albania, Histori e Shqipërisë. When there was the slavic invasion, there were some Sclavonia in this regions of Opar, Korça and Skrapar, Berat. Byzantines gather this slavs and send them in Asia Minor. Did the Byzantine gather all this slavs? I doubt. There is an document that can help us to understand the situation. The memories of Gjon Muzaka. His family was exactly from the region of Korça and he speak about some villages of slavs in Opar. We know about the existence of this people. Today they are assimilated in our nation,they are Albanians like all of us. But the Muzaka family was the ruling family of Epir, they were Despot of Epir. And for centuries their capital was Berat. And when we say Berat, the highland of this city is Skrapar. He don't mention slavs in Skrapar. He speak even about a place in Skrapar, where according to him, there is gold, but he don't speak about slavs. This is the story of slavic settlements in South Albania. Only few villages in the highland of Korça and maybe some left overs in Skrapar. Of course, Geni is excluded, lol.
