It is a wrong opinion that today Albanians are not from Caucasus. In 11th century George Maniac brought them to fight in Sicily and Balkan where they stayed. Best evidence is language. They do not count to ten like European nations but like Azerbaijan people. Anybody can check this.Than you can check music, customs, names and tone of historical evidences. Just see who was called Ilyrian in Germany in 19th century. Yugoslavian movement first was called Illyrian movement.
The Caucasian origin of the Azeris defines a link between Azeris and their pre-Turkification Caucasian past.Whether originally Iranian or Caucasian, it is relatively certain and accepted by most scholars that Azeris are not descendants of Turkic tribes.After the Seljuq Turkic conquest of the region in the 11th century, Azeris were Turkified.Turkification is a term used to describe a process of cultural change in which someone who is not a Turk becomes one, voluntarily or involuntarily!!!!!!

Long before our Albania was formed, back when we were known as Illyrians there was an ancient land called the Caucasian Albania. I don't know what the video is about cuz it's in the native language but from what i know, the causasian albania was in western caucasus where Azerbaijan is today. The caucasian Albania and our Albania have nothing in common though it's just a coincidence since word Alb and Alp mean white and mountain. In the same token Scotland was once called Albany, does that mean..
..that were Scottish? No. It's just some serbs use that as propaganda and to deviate from the fact that their origins derive from the very caucasus where Chechen state is today as it was mentioned by Tacitus and Pliny circa 50-75 AD.
Albania is called ''SHQIPERIA'' eagle land! SHQIPE = EAGLE in english, the person who has uploaded this video is reffering to serbs coming from these sacred land called Azerbajan! Borats homeland! u goatfucker get lost!
Hey guys,can you organize my trip to caucaz albanian. I want to move there where i belong. hahhahahhahha
Nice one you retards. Hhahahhahah. I am albanian,proud ofc, i have been here for over 3000 years and still be for thousands to come. But where serbs will be? In their picku materu in siberia,from where they came.
@DivisionAlbaniaSS during ottoman empire turks mass migrated you monkeys to serbia, cause you guys were turkish bitches, and then you sucked german dick where german scientist tested polio viruses on albanians MR. SS hows that american dick tasting, go check out the albanian cancer rate today.... hahahahha
@DivisionAlbaniaSS I think you are confused. Caucasian Albanians and Albanians are different people. The name is the same, but it is the same as in the example of the country Georgia and US State Georgia.
albania never had any relashion ship with armenia,,, so fuck offf,,, we like turks and azerss,,, u sllavik shitsss,, need to go back to siberia,,, before the great almighty Osman bey comes back,,,
Even though this similarity belonged to pre-history and could not be transferred to later history at the beginning of the Viking era, Thor nevertheless suspected that there might be other cultural connective links between the Caucasus and Scandinavia.
Since first visit to the Caucasus early in the 1960s, the famous Norwegian anthropologist and traveller Thor Heyerdahl had stored in his memory the similarities he found between the petroglyphs in Gobustan near Baku and the petroglyphs in Scandinavia, especially those in Alta, Norway.
Azerbaijan is a heir of Caucasian Albania and subsequent formations at its territory, and Albanians are the ones of ancestors of Azerbaijan nation. today`s Balkans Albania does not have anything common with Caucasian Albania, there just was a state called Caucasian Albania in ancient times in today`s Azerbaijan territories. So it is just the similarity of names with Albania in Balkans. Dont get confused or read the given info on the right of this video.
@hakanjp are u shure that Azeris are descendants of Albanians.. thats not ture.. no ways.... Albanians have become minorities on their own land after Azeris intervention... (actually that was intervention of poeple with Turkish origin, actually say, Albanians are much different than azeries)...... and they are not ancestors of Azers.... you are supplying wrong information to the community...
@zagtaga If Azeris were nomads from central asia dna whould show that.Majority of their dna proves that they are Caucasian, some Iranian, and little Turks.If majority of their dna showed that they were Turkish i would not argue that.
@hakanjp you mean until the modern-day Azerbaijanis arrived there and slaughtered all the men, enslaved their women and brainwashed the children? quit claiming to be someone that you're not, you nomadic savage
@hakanjp Azeri people can not be the heir of Caucasian Albanians you dumb ass. Caucasian Albanian spoke indoeropiean language close to armenian and georgian, they were zoroastiran later christian. Your people speack turkic language and are muslims so you faggots are not the heirs of Caucasian Albanians.
@hakanjp Albania is a ROMAN LATIN WORD like IBERIA...ROMAN BYZANTINES RULED THE CAUCASES NAMING THE AREA ALBANIA BECAUSE OF the white snow capped mountains... Alba means white
fuck armenia! big nose hairy pricks. they dont belong in the caucasus. armenians should go back to lebanon, syria and iran where they came from, not to mention mostly populated.
People, Albania today as the rest of the World calls it, gets its name from a Illyrian tribe called the Albanoi, which Rome did a lot of business with. Hence the name Albania came to be. Keep in mind that "Albanians" do not call themselves Albanian but "Shqipetar". Shqiperia is the region that includes modern day Albania, Kosovo, Cameria(a region which was given to greece by the big powers after WWI), and areas in Macedonia.
Albania has the meaning : Alps' (people living high mountains/the alps of Balkan); ancient greek writters wrote that their neigbourghs (albanians) inhabited in times of Illyria from adriatic sea until caucasus. Illyria was powerful in those times.
sorry but his explanation is wrong; please remember that linguists are not able to explain the meaning of albania no more than albanians to; all we now is that the first time it appears,it was in latin written documents: albania is a name older that latin linguage;! it doesn't mean alba... !! it cames from Albanoï
Shqiperia is the Albanians' own name for their land, which is believed to have supplanted the name Albania during the 16th and 17th centuries. It probably was derived from shqipe, or eagle, which, modified into shqiperia, became the land of the eagle.
From a single tribe the name spread to include the rest of the country as Arberia and, finally, Albania. The genesis of Albanian nationality apparently occurred at this time as the Albanian people became aware that they shared a common territory, name, language, and cultural heritage.
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. As a consequence, from the 8th to the 11th century, the name Illyria gradually gave way to the name, first mentioned in the 2nd century AD by the geographer Ptolemy of Alexandria, of the Albanoi tribe, which inhabited what is now central Albania
In our ancient language still spoken on the north of Azerbaijan today along with commonly spoken Azeri-turkic language Albania means "mountainous land" since there are Caucasian Mountains, also seen from the video i have put here. And what does your country Albaina mean in your language? Why not Illyria?
@KorcaOrthodhoks don't even waste your time on these Turkish savages, brother. they claim to be someone they're not because they DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO THEY ARE. It's like Americans claiming to be Indians
@KorcaOrthodhoks turks during the ottoman times used albanians, germans used albanians, and now americans use albanians.... its funny how albanians hate serbia, but the serbian kingdom gave these people from the ottoman empire land and a flag, and a king skenderbeg who was half serbian and half greek and his job was to get these people to rebel againts the turks in the ottoman empire.... truth hurts, but will set you free.
Their physical appearances remind white people-caucasions,like west of Turkey today and are much different from their half ancestors turkic nations of central asia.Also read the detalied info on the left in the explanation of this video.
The langauge they spoke are used by gunns, gels, alpnas, legs and udins nowadays in northern and north-western Azerbaijan. The writtings on the church walls can be seen even today. Today they are both christians and muslim, jews as well live here. But the langauge commonly spoken in Azerbajan is widely turkic-oriented language and people living here are mixtures of the caucasian nations gels,tats,udins,turkic tribes all spekaing turkic langauge of azeri being descendants of albanians.
The most ancient Christian church in Caucasus - is Albanian church Kish, established in 1 -2 century A.D by apostle Elysee in Sheki region, and also temples Gandzasar and Amaras in Karabagh are still remained uptoday at places where at present live descendants of gunns, gels, alpnas, legs and udins.
Caucasus - is a cradle of ancient civilisations, created by people inhabited this territory, which preserved rich material and cultural legacy of ancient state Albania. Azerbaijan is a heir of Caucasian Albania and subsequent formations at its territory, and Albanians are the ones of ancestors of Azerbaijan nation.
ok i do not have smth with azerbaijan,sorry.i thought a serb posted it because serbs (fucking slavs) are using propaganda in coorpartion with greeks against albanians,i thought it was an attempt of them to make look like albania is not illiria,1 more time sorry :)
Man common read some history, of course it is not related to today`s Albania, there just was a state called Albania in ancient times in today`s Azerbaijan. So it is just the similarity of names with Albania in Balkans. Dont curse here.
Exactly, then Scotts were Albanians too because they called their land Albania.... no logic what's ever. Alba means white in Latin therefore, the Caucasia was called that too. Albania in the Balkans shares nothing with that in Caucasia. Different language..nothing in common. Albanoi-Illyrian tribe recorded in 3rd century BC.
gator, its funny that you mention about the scotts and how they call their land albania. In addition to that similarity with the albanians and albania of southe-eastern europe, the scotts also wear the fustanella like the ancient albanian costume of souther albanian tribes that have historically extended well into greece, and another similarity between these two distant lands is the scottish traditional instrument (i can't remember what is called) is also an albanian traditional instrument.
There deffinetly exists a connection between these two distant land and the only thing that i can think of that connects them is the roman empire. Like most of today's europe, albania was also part of the roman empire who privided soldiers to rome which in return sent them to conquer distant lands and therefore extending its empire. I'd like to research more on this topic to put some light on the historical relationship between these commonolities.
It is not true. Because in the history there is Roman - Albanian war. and Roman empire invaded Albania. So it means that Albania had no relations since Roman came and captured, Albania existed before that.
I dont know how true is this though,since one of the biggest Albanian tribes during Illyria era,was ALBANET (Alban), and probably bc.of that and their influence in the region, the name came to be the subsitute of Illyria.
Actually, I didn't explain the above in detail, but I was actually referring to "Alban" in the comment above. So, Albans took the name from italians, and Albania from Albans.
I have just read this in history books and I am no expert in the area, just letting you know :)
It is not true. Because in the history there is Roman - Albanian war. and Roman empire invaded Albania. So it means that Albania had no relations since Roman came and captured, Albania existed before that.
Today Albania by albanians is called SHQIPERIA and has nothing to do with cauccas
albania came from a tribe in Illyria ( ANCIENT ALBANIA )
ALbania and Kosovo Speak Albanian
and Old ALbania was ILLYRIA the first people in balkan read fact books stop propaganda !!

Could you please tell me what language ancient Albanians spoke, ist related to you language in any form ? I would appreciate it ..

The langauge they spoke are used by gunns, gels, alpnas, legs and udins nowadays in northern and north-western Azerbaijan. The writtings on the church walls can be seen even today. Today they are both christians and muslim, jews as well live here. But the langauge commonly spoken in Azerbajan is widely turkic-oriented language and people living here are mixtures of the caucasian nations gels,tats,udins,turkic tribes all spekaing turkic langauge of azeri being descendants of albanians.

The most ancient Christian church in Caucasus - is Albanian church Kish, established in 1 -2 century A.D by apostle Elysee in Sheki region, and also temples Gandzasar and Amaras in Karabagh are still remained uptoday at places where at present live descendants of gunns, gels, alpnas, legs and udins.

Caucasus - is a cradle of ancient civilisations, created by people inhabited this territory, which preserved rich material and cultural legacy of ancient state Albania. Azerbaijan is a heir of Caucasian Albania and subsequent formations at its territory, and Albanians are the ones of ancestors of Azerbaijan nation.

Man common read some history, of course it is not related to today`s Albania, there just was a state called Albania in ancient times in today`s Azerbaijan. So it is just the similarity of names with Albania in Balkans. Dont curse here.

Exactly, then Scotts were Albanians too because they called their land Albania.... no logic what's ever. Alba means white in Latin therefore, the Caucasia was called that too. Albania in the Balkans shares nothing with that in Caucasia. Different language..nothing in common. Albanoi-Illyrian tribe recorded in 3rd century BC.

gator, its funny that you mention about the scotts and how they call their land albania. In addition to that similarity with the albanians and albania of southe-eastern europe, the scotts also wear the fustanella like the ancient albanian costume of souther albanian tribes that have historically extended well into greece, and another similarity between these two distant lands is the scottish traditional instrument (i can't remember what is called) is also an albanian traditional instrument.

There deffinetly exists a connection between these two distant land and the only thing that i can think of that connects them is the roman empire. Like most of today's europe, albania was also part of the roman empire who privided soldiers to rome which in return sent them to conquer distant lands and therefore extending its empire. I'd like to research more on this topic to put some light on the historical relationship between these commonolities.

It is not true. Because in the history there is Roman - Albanian war. and Roman empire invaded Albania. So it means that Albania had no relations since Roman came and captured, Albania existed before that.

albania - from italian: "alba" means dawn or sunrise.
Since the sun raises from the east and Albania was east of Italy, Italians called that land Albania, or the Sunrise Land.

I dont know how true is this though,since one of the biggest Albanian tribes during Illyria era,was ALBANET (Alban), and probably bc.of that and their influence in the region, the name came to be the subsitute of Illyria.

Actually, I didn't explain the above in detail, but I was actually referring to "Alban" in the comment above. So, Albans took the name from italians, and Albania from Albans.
I have just read this in history books and I am no expert in the area, just letting you know :)
