It's left catholicism (and o.ch.) and converted to islam
![]() ![]() Interestingly enough, there's a catholic spot at the north of Albania, with one +90% catholic district, in the middle of muslim sea. I think Albania is a fascinating nation, anyway. They have unique roots and history. I don't know much about it, though. If You think Albania does not deserve it, OK Winston, the Elbonia of Apolyton ![]() |

The story isn't that simple. Albania mostly didn't get conquered by catholics. It remained part of Epiros, Bulgaria for most of its time, though Durres and some other coastal cities indeed were in catholic hands.
When it comes to the children, Turks didn't need that many of them, they weren't, as they show them, little children, but early (but not necessarily) teenagers, and often the families wanted their children to join the janissaries - it was a big chance of career, and the children remembered about their families, villages, etc. Which doesn't mean that it wasn't often a tragedy, that Turks had moral right to do it, that their rule was not harsh to Bulgarians, Serbs etc. |
