The prevalence of nationalism in Albania

listens to one song

hears 'shqiperi etnike'

"why is nationalism so strong in albania"

No, for real now, why do you guys exaggerate so much when it comes to albanians? I mean if we are being honest, the whole balkans is economically a big shit hole, without any proper governance, with no real hopes and with nearly no regulations. I mean like just look at Kosovo, we still did not get our shit together and just formed after months of chaos a government with the same old bastardous thieves that leech the living shit out of the people.

Shqiperi etnike is something, a lot of albanians daydream (just like the serbs back then, except they tried to make their dream into reality lol) but in reality, we will never see those funny borders in future maps.

Why you ask? Because firstly most of the borders are not even inhabitated by albanians. How do you guys imagine that albanians should take over that? Our military is not the best and is a wet fart compared to serbia's army atm. I just don't see the point where albania will invade Corfu and be like "this is Albania now". Just be realistic and use your brain. Secondly, there is 0 to very little development in our countries, with that pace we will maybe get our shqiperi etnike in 1000 years. There is just no point the whole map, it will never become a reality. What could become a reality is Kosovo and Albania merging together, why? Because both speak the same language but then again, there is no real progress since both countries broke free from communism and none of both countries is strong enough to support themselfes and the other country. So unification is something that is in the far future and albanians don't even make steps to let that reality come closer, atm they even split more with current politics.

Whenever I talk to serbs in switzerland, most of them always think like we are warmongering people, that work together with jews and americans to create a big albania and to eradicate all serbs, while in reality we are so far from that. It really amazes me, because in their stories they put us up like we are so good organized, while in reality it is not the case.

I think what serbia really should be aware of is that they should try to get rid of the bad politicians and give more work to their people, instead focusing non existant problems to albanians, because believe me - there won't really be an albanian invasion awaiting serbia.
