The great Albanian hero Skanderbeg is widely considered as one of the most important military figures of the Middle Ages. In this episode about Skanderbeg, we will cover his early life, the creation of the League of Lezha as well as his initial battles against Ottoman generals.
The main sources behind this series are gathered from the Albanian Academy of Sciences.

    • serbians try to steal everything possible , I mean the fact shows that Skenderbeg refused to take any serbians or other blood into his command , He only accepted Albanians in his army also Skenderbeg only asked for one favour from Serbia to go in on their territory from Belgrade and make a strategic move on Ottoman Empire but Serbian so called King refused Skenderbeg to use their current land for such things as Serbians have already built a strong Ally bond to Ottoman Empire , Skenderbeg also gave a threat to them if you try to do one mistake it will be the end of you all , Serbians didn't intervene while Skenderbeg was alive but sadly right after the death of Skenderbeg Gjergj Kastrioti Serbia went and massacred villages in Albanian territories so they could claim land.

If you read his correspondences, he makes sure to show the knowledge in history, diplomacy and politics. He wasn't given enough help from Europe and Papa Pious died in a very crucial moment when he was preparing to put together a coalition against the Ottoman Empire.

With wings of defiance, he soared high, A dragon's spirit, reaching the sky. In battles fierce, with flames of will, He guarded the land, a protector still. The Dragon of Albania, in armor clad, Against oppression, a warrior mad. His roar echoed in mountain air, A symbol of strength, beyond compare. Through valleys deep and mountains tall, The Dragon of Albania, heeded the call. In every tale, his flames burn bright, Scanderbeg, the dragon, in freedom's light.

    • Skanderbeg shares the same DNA as the Albanians and not the Serbs. Gjergj Kastrioti Skënderbe, also known as Skanderbeg (1405-1468), was an Albanian feudal lord and military commander who led a rebellion against the Ottoman Empire in what is today Albania, North Macedonia, Greece, Kosovo, Montenegro and Serbia. One of his patrilineal descendants was identified as a member of haplogroup E-V13 > Z17107. Source 📜 : Famous people's Y-DNA listed by haplogroup Author: Maciamo Hay, E-V13 branch. EUPEDIA, Maciamo Hay. E-V13 (Haplogroup E) is one of the Haplogroups that were common among Illyrians (Albanian), yes. E-V13 as Haplogroup Y originated from the so-called Neolithic settlers, who entered the Balkans from Anatolia about 8500 years ago. These Neolithic settlers were the founders of the Minoan civilization, the first European civilization in history. They also played a major role in the ethnogenesis of the Mycenaeans, Greeks, Thracians, Dacians and Illyrians that followed. E-V13 is one of the haplogroups that were common among the Illyrians, yes. Thus, although E-V13 is not exclusively "Illyrian" but rather paleobalkanic in general, it was one of the main Illyrian y-DNA haplogroups. In addition to E-V13, the Illyrians probably possessed the haplogroup R1b, originating from the Indo-European which gave them their languages, to the Thracians and Greeks, and J2b, another Mediterranean Neolithic haplogroup common to today's Albanians, Greeks and Italians, among others (Pelasgians). It is also worth mentioning that the three haplogroups so typical for today's Albanians have also been found in Neolithic and Bronze Age remains on the eastern coast of the Adriatic (ancient Illyria) ! : E1b1 📜 (Haplogroup E) - R1b - J2b2 . - source : ( The genomic history of Southeast Europe )

    • His Father was Albanian, the Kastrioti date themselves back to the Progoni whom the Dukagjini also descend from, the Progonis as we know created the Principality of Arbanon, reaching its zenith in 1206, Durign this time The regions around Tetovo, Diber, Xhepchist were ruled by the kastriotis whom were sworn to Dhimiter Progoni and Gjin Progoni, His Mother we have little to no Evidence that she was serbian, even if she somehow in Gods name was Serbian, Skanderbeg would not inherit the Serbian Nationality & Ethnicity & Titles from his mother but rather his father as was the maternial rule for feudal and royal lords during the Medieval Ages, which continued until around the time of Catherine the Great of Russia, Besides the point, Marlin Barleti names Gjergjis Mother as to be either of Arianiti Origjin or Thopia rather than Brankovic. Skanderbeg in matter of fact DESPISED the Brankovic Serbians and prefered the Moravian Hungarian Influenced Serbians over the Brankovics due to their disobedience and how the fact that he saw them as traitors to their faith and servants of the Turks, Whilst Skanderbeg allied himself with Hungarian Moravian Nobles. In no way was he Serbian.

  • How the Albanians show George Kastriotis as Albanian One of the lesser known heroes of Greek history is George Kastriotis, known also as Skander beys. It is the national hero of Albanians at the same time is unknown or wrongly presented in Greece. as ethnic Albanian. Let's see who the final Skander beys. His real name is Georgios Kastriotis. The last name and has true origin after his grandfather, Konstantinos Kastriotis (1390), was ruler of the region of Kastoria and Imathia. His father was Ioannis Kastriotis, ruler of Kroias while his mother came from Serbia (Voisava). Shortly before the fall of Constantinople, and while the Sultan Murad II conquered the Byzantine one province after another, ask the ruler of Kroias as a manifestation of subjugation and domination of the guarantee, the ransom of 4 sons one of whom was George. I. The Kastriotis accepted and children embraced Islam after (it was Christians) were found to be raised in the sultan's court Andrianoupoleos along with the later conqueror of Constantinople, Mehmed the Second. Sultan Murad, seeing the great progress and the gifts of Greek children gave him the Turkish name "Iskender Bey" (Skanderbeg) which means "Alexander ruler." Despite the Ottoman upbringing, Georgios did not forget his roots. The news of the death of his parents and the oppression from the Turks gave rise to Skander beys in battle fleeing to Serbia and to return to the ancestral lands. Once married Androniki Comnena, George Kastrioti on November 28, 1443 declares the revolution against the Turks. As an emblem used the Byzantine double-headed eagle on a red background, the most current flag of Albania. George Kastriotis thanks martial virtues was able to rid the province of the Turkish occupation and cause admiration in the Christian West who expect the Ottoman threat. It was so great successes Kastriotis that forced him to the sultan to war against him. Typical are the praise of Pope Kallistratos III, naming the Kastriotis "knight of Christ" and "athlete of God." Even after the fall of Constantinople (1453), the Skander bey operated undisturbed until his death. On January 17, 1467 at the age of 63 died of malaria. He was buried with the values ​​expected of a legend in the Church of St. Nicholas in Alessio (ancient Lissos). Evidence of the Greek origin of George Kastriotis: Despite knowledge of the origin of the Albanians continue to believe and propagate some Greeks unknowingly that the Albanian Skander bey was active in the region because of today's Albania. Of course, except that they forget their Greek territories (from the time of Pyrrhus), do the methodological error of timing differences in their attempt to find a great hero in the Albanian history has had to show a hero as always succumbed to bribery and political pressures of the larger forces (see Ottoman Empire, Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany and Soviet Union). Here are some proofs of the root of Georgios Kastriotis o himself Kastriotis were Greek speaking and all of the letters to the rulers of the West and the Sultan were written in Greek, even presented as a descendant of Epirus, not of Illyrian (see letter to the Italian Ursini, 1460). Brought Macedonian helmet and using the name of Alexander the Great, sample continuity national consciousness. o Speaking of Pope Paul II said: "After Enslavement of Asia and Greece, after the slaughter of the offspring of Con sovereign / city of Trebizond and desolation ... most part of Macedonia and Epirus, opposite the savage conqueror of competitor to crush his cross, to lift on the Capitol Crescent and slaves to pay for the whole world I stand alone ... after the remains of soldiers after me and of my small Hellenic state". The Turkish biographer of Ali Pasha, Ahmet Moufit, writes Kastriotis about "the year 1443 he escaped from the Ottoman camp of Morava the Greek sovereign Kastriotis and went to the headquarters of his ancestors, the Kroia." o Italian, English and Swedish reports consider Skanderbeg Greek. Thus Italian A. Salvi in ​​the tragedy (1718) refers to him as a Greek (Greco). The Englishman C. Randall in 1810 he calls Greek Hero (Grecian Hero) and the Swedish Barrau initially and Rudbeck later (1835) consider C. Kastriotis Greek. The proofs are so many that it is impossible to record a few lines. Greek historians are invited to stop this misrepresentation and false to write books on Albanian ruler. Similarly, the Greeks called all know what a Skander bey's and respond appropriately to our guests misguided Albanians.

Durrës was inhabited by the Venetians, Greeks, Jews, and Slavs; Shkodra by the Venetians and Slavs; and Vlora by the Byzantine Greeks. Names of towns and rivers in Albania, always a good indicator of settlement patterns , are to a surprising extent Slavic.

Albanians did remain majority Muslim but they did not declare Skanderbeg a traitor like you did with Pavle Djurisic or Durisic. Srbas obeyed when Muslims banned building any monuments to Djurisic at the Black Mountains. And wanting Kadyrov to rule Kyiv just because he 'serves a xtian tsar'? hahaha.
