To the person who posted the anti-Albanian origin post,
you thought you killed us all, but you didn’t 
The Illyrians are back, 6-8 million of us now!
From Noel Malcolm, a Cambridge History PHD, not some loser.
“But if Illyrian survived as Albanian, it did so only by means of physical contraction, withdrawal and isolation, which naturally would have taken place in mountain terrain. This is why the purest element of Albanian vocabulary refers to mountains, high-altitude plants and shepherding: the point is not that the proto-Albanians had never lived any other sort of life, but that the only ones who survived as Albanian-speakers did so precisely because that was the sort of isolated and independent life they led, probably for several centuries. The Illyrians who lived on the coastal plains were Romanized, like the ones on the Dalmatian coast and indeed in most areas of Yugoslavia. By the time the Slavs began arriving in the sixth century, there were only scattered pockets of speakers of the old ‘barbarian’ languages left anywhere in the Balkans, and all of them were in mountainous regions.
