@ironheaven1 The Balkans is called the Illyrian Peninsula.
Balkan people represent the people of Troy.
You are underestimating Balkan culture, music and history my friend.

"Troianam utramque prolem, cum Lavinium ab Troia, ab Lavinio Alba, ab Albanorum stirpe regum oriundi Romani essent."
By Titus Livius or Livy (59 BCE - 17 CE): Roman historian, author of the authorized version of the history of the Roman republic.
Translation: Both being of Trojan stock: for from Troy came Lavinium, from Lavinium, Alba, and the Romans were descended from the stock of the Alban kings.
Latin Romans claimed Trojan-Alban ancestry.

@ironheaven1 So let's see..
Troy= Illium + Dardania
Albania= Illyria=Illyricum=Illium + Dardania
Here is a fragment from a Latin text, Latin Romans wrote it more than 2000 years ago.

@ironheaven1 Let's see who the Illyrians were..
First let's see how Troy was called by Latin Romans.
Troy (Hittite: Wilusa or Truwisa; Greek: Ἴλιον, Ilion, and Τροία, Troia; Latin: Trōia and Īlium
Troy was sometimes called Troia sometimes Illium by the Latin Romans.Those Latin Romans wrote that Troy was devided into two houses, that of Troy and that of Dardania. Kosovo was called Dardania by Latin Romans, Albanians still call it Dardania, only serbs changed the name to kosovo.

@ironheaven1 but the people are actually Illines, Hellenes (pronounced Ellines) are the ancient Greeks. Ellines is the same as Illines, it's only a matter of a dialect. The people are the same. 4000 year old Albanian music is protected by Unesco World Heritage. The reason why Albanian music is protected by Unesco, is because it is considered cultural heritage of all Humanity. You don't have 4000 year old music, do you?

@ironheaven1 If you knew our history, you would understand that Greeks and Albanians are actually the same people, including Romanians and most of the Slavs. We all have Illyrian blood (Thraco-Illyrian, Daco-Thracian, Hellene, Celto-Illyrian). The English people call the Illyrian people like that, because the name derived from the Albanian toponym Illyria, rria refers to a toponym, rria means residence, it derived from the Alb verb rri (to reside, to remain, to stay),

@ironheaven1 Who told you that many Balkan songs are Algerian in origin? With all due respect mister, but you got that all wrong. As the matter of fact, this music is aboriginal Balkan music, Arabs copied from us.
Arabic music: As was the case in other artistic and scientific fields, Arabs translated and developed Greek texts and works of music and mastered the musical theory of the Greeks (i.e. Systema ametabolon, enharmonium, chromatikon, diatonon).
