The descendants of Alexander the Great in Europe

To all our friends that suffer from jealousy you have to read this:


When we first know it, the peninsula was inhabited by Thracians, Macedonians, and Illyrians -- wild folk, not Greek: a mass of savage tribes each led by its chieftain. They appear to have been closely allied in race. Their form of speech is unknown. 'If the Thracians,' says Herodotus, 'were either under the government of an individual or united among themselves, their strength would, in my opinion, render them invincible; but this is a thing impossible'. And his estimate of these people was a just one. Philip of Macedon welded the wild tribes into a power, and Thracians, Macedonians, and Illyrians formed the foundation of Alexander the Great's all-conquering armies.

That the modern Albanian is the more or less direct descendant of the primitive savage people of the Balkans is a fact which, I believe, no one now disputes. Alexander the Great was a Macedonian, and Olympias, his mother, a Princess of Epirus (South Albania); therefore Alexander was clearly an Albanian.
