What the Albanians did wrong is they didn’t write a strong letter of protest to the League of Nations. That would have made the Italians behave.

Perhaps a letter indicating “grave concerns” would have struck a chord.

Italian occupation was certainly preferable to what Albania had for forty years after the war. A Stalinist dictatorship.

A Stalinist dictatorship.I thought Albania went Maoist for some strange reason.

After Stalin died, and Khrushchev denounced Stalin, Albania did become an ally of China-then Mao died, and then Albania basically had no allies at all.
