How do you know that "the vast majority" identified theselves as Moslem? Or was it just the vast majority of those you talked to? After all, could anyone ask all Albanians?

Well the ones who live there said 70% was the approximately number, and they seemed to know a little bit about the country they were born in, and lived their entire lives in. I know there were far more mosques than churches in the cities I visited, which was most of the major ones, south to north and then back again. I know the people who lived there showed me how the smaller cities were divided into muslim and catholic (north) or orthodox (south) "burroughs," and it was pretty clear the muslim burrough was larger. I know I could always here the speakers on the mosques in the morning. And lastly, I know my wife, who was born and raised in Albania, says that most Albanians are muslims, but she went to school with a few catholics (north) too.
