Albanian Americans  

Definition

  • Although the Albanian American community is relatively small in size and recent in origin, it has at various times during the 20th century played a significant role in the history of Albania. Most recently, reflecting a change in its composition, the community has also been active in promoting the independence of the Albanian-inhabited region of Kosovo from Serbia.
