Albanians want to claim even the Roman empire as Albanian, by showing that Illyrians became Roman Emperors. The reality is that at a low point in Roman history, barbarians were taken and made into soldiers. And there was nothing glorious about these soldiers. ****** 'Under the Julian emperors, the occidental legions were still composed principally of natives of Italy. From the time of Vespasian that situation gradually ended. The Italians then were assigned principally only to the Praetorian Guard in Rome. The legions were filled from the provinces in which they were stationed; even the Germans, to judge from the evidence of the inscriptions, were enlisted in them in increasing numbers. In one of the inscriptions that has come down to us, a Praetorian speaks just as Vergil has spoken of the barbarian legions. And so it was, according to their blood, but by spirit, custom, and language the legions were now recruited from the national groups of the empire there were already Romanized and were becoming completely so in the service, despite their barbarian origins.' (Hans Delbrück, History of the Art of War: The Barbarian Invasions, p 162) 'The Roman legions continued to exist in name, but their character changed. They declined to a weak militia. Besides such degenerate legions (limitanei), there existed a few others that retained their military efficiency by adopting the system of the barbarian mercenary units. The Joviani and the Herculians of Diocletian are examples <b>...</b>

2500 years ago Herodotus in his history wrote that in the region of today's northern Croatia lives a people who claim to be the cousins of the Medes who live on the region of Elam in today's western Iran: "West of Danube lives the Sikin people (city Sisak below Zagreb), they wear clothing like that of the Medes and Scythians (from city Susa below Zagros Mountians). The boarders of this land stretches almost to Venice on the Adriatic Sea. Sikins claim to have migrated from Media, but how can this be, I cannot understand but in history anything is possible". This fact talks about the connection between the people of todays Iran and Illyrians. This historical Herodotus clearly says, that the same people lived from Indus valley to the Alps. Therefore, Illyrians, Dalmatians, Sarmatians, are the same as Elamates, Medes and Parsis, one and the same roots of the Harahvaiti. Toponyms of rivers, cities, mountains, from Indus river all the way to the Alps confirms these claims. The Harahvaiti tribes lived in the regions of grand valleys from the Alps to the Urals and Himalayas. The fact is, the awareness of the common origin of Croats and Iranians still lives in Croatia to this day, although the real origin of these claims were unknown.

The Illyrians: Kingdoms, Wars and Culture Among the numerous Illyrian tribes, there are some who gained regional importance and formed kingdoms. The East Coast of the Adriatic Sea was dominated by the kingdoms of the Enkelejs (4th century -- 335 bc), the Taulants (335 -- 251 bc) and the Ardians (250 -- 168 bc). These centuries were characterized by many fights with the Ancient Macedonians, in a certain way as a precedent of the bitter actuality ... After that, there were the three Roman -- Illyrian wars between 229 and 167 bc The Romans tried to conquer Illyrian lands, which is explained by Roman authors by the necessity of fighting Illyrian pirats tolerated by Queen Teuta. „This was indeed only a pretext of the Romans in order to begin war, whereas the true reason of Roman conquests were hegemonial ambitions of the Romans"[1] -- an interesting parallel to recent complaints about organized criminality in Albana, which is often an all-to-easy pretext for denigrating the country for some political reason ... The history of the Roman -- Illyrian wars shows the decisive importance of victorious alliances and unity among the different Illyrian tribes, and on the other hand the fatality of treachery and the principle „divide et impera" (divide and rule). The efforts and difficulties of unifying Albania against existential threats is a leitmotiv to be found throughout Albanian history. Kosova in Illyrian times was the Kingdom of Dardania, which linguists link to the Albanian <b>...</b>

Albanians are the ancient civilization of europe, autochthonous and native in balkan peninsula straight descendants of Pelasgians-Illyrians-Albanians. Qellimi promovimi i vlerave kulturore, historike dhe ngritja e vetedijes dhe krenarisë kombetare. ILLYRIANS The Greeks call those people Illyrians who occupy the region beyond Macedonia and Thrace from Chaonia and Thesprotia to the river Danube. This is the length of the country. Its breadth is from Macedonia and the mountains of Thrace to Pannonia and the Adriatic and the foothills of the Alps. Its breadth is five days' journey and its length thirty - so the Greek writers say. The Romans measured the country and found its length to be upward of 1000 kilometers and its width about 220. Illyrians received its name from Illyrius, the son of Polyphemus; for the cyclops Polyphemus and his wife, Galatea, had three sons, Celtus, Illyrius, and Galas, all of whom migrated from Sicily; and the nations called Celts, Illyrians, and Galatians took their origin from them. Among the many myths prevailing among many peoples this seems to me the most plausible. Illyrius had six sons, Encheleus, Autarieus, Dardanus, Maedus, Taulas, and Perrhaebus, also daughters, Partho, Daortho, Dassaro, and others, from whom sprang the Taulantii, the Perrhaebi, the Enchelees, the Autarienses, the Dardani, the Partheni, the Dassaretii, and the Darsii. Autarieus had a son Pannonius, or Paeon, and the latter had sons, Scordiscus and Triballus, from whom <b>...</b>

Kosovo Dogs Identity Crisis A famous Illyrian Sheepdog breeder in Kosovo talks about the future of this breed... Apr. 18 - Just two months after Kosovo declared independance from Serbia a new political row is brewing. The Shar Mountain dog was first registered by the FCI (Federation Cynologique Internationale) in 1939 and known as the Illyrian Shepherd dog after the ancient name of the region. After the disintegration of Yugoslavia, Macedonia requested that the name of the breed change to Macedonian-Yugoslav shepherd dog. Now, since Kosovo's declaration of independence from Serbia, breeders and owners in Kosovo believe that the dog should reclaim it's original title as the Illyrian Shepherd dog. Hayley Platt reports.

In their desire to prove that Albanians have a civilization, they refer to the Illyrian emperors of Rome. In reality, these emperors were generals elected by barbarian soldiers, and it was at this time that the Roman Empire declined. ******* 'Emperors elected by the soldiers (193-284). Growth of the Power of the Army. -- From this time for nearly a hundred years the emperors of Rome were chosen by the soldiers, and the government of Rome was consequently in great confusion. You remember that it was by the army, after all, that Julius, and afterwards Augustus, had gained their power. But when they had gained it, they wished to use it with the consent of the people, and keep it quietly without having to look to the soldiers to help them. Augustus, however, had not been able to do so altogether; he had kept some soldiers, the Praetorian Guards, in Rome; and, as you have seen, these soldiers sometimes settled who should be emperor. Still, upon the whole, the emperor was chosen by the Senate, and not by the soldiers.' (Mandell Creighton, History of Rome, p 103-4) 'This state of things lasted while the Empire was at peace, and the emperor lived generally in Rome, and was the chief magistrate of the state. But now things were changing, and the emperor must be the leader of the armies.' (Mandell Creighton, History of Rome, p 104) 'The soldiers were now the most important part of the state, and they would no longer take for their leader anyone whom the Senate sent them.'

SIMILAR OR DIFFERENT BETWEEN ILLYRIAN AND ALBANIAN LANGUAGE Illyrians used to inhabit a vast region from modern Hungary to Greece. Illyrian traces are noticed even in southern Poland, Illyrian elements exist in Baltic and Slavic languages. About 1300 BC this people of Indo-European stock settled on the northern and eastern coasts of the Adriatic Sea. Included among its members were various tribes of Dalmatians and the Pannonians. Those of Illyrians who crossed the Adriatic and settled in Italy spoke the Messapic language. The Greeks established cities on the Adriatic coast of Illyria in the 7th and 6th centuries BC, and in the 4th and 3rd, Macedonian kings conquered parts of the land. The last Illyrian kingdom was established in the 3rd century BC with the capital in Scodra (now Shkoder, Albania). After Dalmatia seceded from the Illyrian kingdom the Romans conquered Scodra and there established, in 168 BC, a colony they named Illyricum. Gradually Dalmatia was conquered (78-77 BC); then, by 35-34 BC the southern areas of the former kingdom of Illyria were added and, in 9 BC, Pannonia in the north. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476, the region of ancient Illyria became part of the Byzantine Empire. In the next two centuries Slavic peoples gradually drifted in to settle on Illyrian lands, and as early as the 6th century, North Illyrians, who lived in Pannonia and modern Croatia and Slovenia, were completely assimilated by them.
