Albania

From Heterodontosaurus Balls

Albania, officially the Republic of Albania, is a country located in the Balkan region of Europe. He is very nationalist, proud to be Albanian. He is also somewhat socially awkward.

Due to being in Europe and having an extremë distrust for Russia for what Soviët Union did, Albania can into NATO, but cannot into Europëan Union due to the ongoing conflict with Kosovo and Sërbia. He is also in the United Nations like almost evëry other nation in thë world.

Historia (History)

From 1992 to the early 2000s, Albania transitioned from a communist state to a democracy, with significant challenges along the way. Sali Berisha became the first democratically elected president in 1992. The mid-1990s were marked by economic turmoil, including the collapse of pyramid schemes in 1997, leading to widespread civil unrest and the resignation of Berisha.

During the late 1990s, Serbians and other non-Albanians would be taken to the “Yellow House”, also known as the “Death Factory”. The unfortunate victims then would be killed and their organs would be sold on the black market in Italy. Each victim gained the “business” around 50,000 USD. After the Kosovo War ended, the factory operated for another year and was then closed.

The Socialist Party, led by Fatos Nano, came into power. In 1999, the Kosovo War brought an influx of Kosovar refugees, and Albania's strategic location played a crucial role in NATO's intervention. By 2006, Albania had signed the Stabilization and Association Agreement (SAA) with the EU, paving the way for further integration.

From 2009 onwards, Albania made significant strides towards integration with Western institutions, joining NATO in April 2009 and formally applying for EU membership later that month. The Socialist Party, under Edi Rama, won the 2013 elections and continued to govern, focusing on judicial reforms and combating corruption. Albania was granted EU candidate status in 2014, and by 2020, the EU agreed to open accession talks. Despite political tensions and ongoing challenges, including economic development and political stability, Albania has made steady progress towards EU membership, with official accession negotiations beginning in 2022.

Recently, the Muslim population in Albania has been dropping, and Albania is no longer a Muslim-majority country.
