The Albanians I know who are in the US are Greek orthodox, so I'm not sure whether Albania is primarily muslin or not.

According to my 1998 Cambridge University Factfinder, Albania is 70% Muslim (sunni), 5% Roman Catholic and 2% Greek or Albanian Orthodox.

Before 1991 the country was OFFICIALLY atheist.

It is.....I think somewhere on this thread it has the number 65%. I wonder if that was a pre-war number. I understand that many of the Christians have been killed or sent fleeing.
