| | Sipa Tours - Albanian History |
 | | The question of the origin of the Albanians is still a matter of controversy among the ethnologists. |
 | | In the course of several centuries, under the impact of Roman, Byzantine, and Slavic cultures, the tribes of southern Illyria underwent a transformation, and a transition occurred from the old Illyrian population to a new Albanian one. |
 | | In 1878 Albanian leaders met in the town of Prizren, in Kosovo, where they founded the League of Prizren (Albanian League) to promote a free, unified Albania in all Albanian- populated territories. |
