A short presentation of Albania Albania is called in our Albanian language Shqipëria, and it means the country of eagle. We have an eagle also in the state emblem. Albanians are very old nation. Our history starts from the prehistoric stage, with early records of Ilyria in Greco-Roman historiography. My country is a very beautiful country, with sunshine most of the time, large seaside, high mountains, lakes, forests, etc. We say in Albania “the God was prodigal when he created us”. Another thing that makes me proud is that Albanian people are vital, dynamic, friendly, hospitable, with humor sense but they were unlucky for 50 years. The Albanian’s dream is a better life in a new democracy and integrated Europe.
Thank you for your attention
