>>>The words Albania and Civil in one phrase? Hard to imagine. Besides, I didn't think there was anyone left in that country after they all went to Kosovo.

You are entitled to form your own opinion on the events in the Balkans, however the above two-sentence post would seem to imply ignorance (not many Albanians have gone to Kosova, the reverse is more likely) and prejudice (Albanians are no less civil then other Eastern Europian peoples, struggling to stabilise in the post-communism era).

There was over 400 000 citizens of Albania who used the chaos in 1999 to illegally settle in Kosovo province, faking they are regugees without documents. They are illegal aliens, and their settlement is war crime according to Geneva convention. Thier presence is easily visible in Kosovo. Their newly built houses do not have heavy fortified look of Kosovo Shqiptar compounds.

Number of Albania citizens who settled illegaly in Kosovo province in 1941-99 is in hundreds of thousands.

How many Kosovo Shqiptars settled in Albania? My guestimate is less than 20000. Do you have other info?

I hope your data is more reliable than your spelling checker (it's Kosovo, not Kosova)
