    When many Catholic leaders refused to rush to the aid of the great city, Giovanni Giustiniani, the famed Genoes mercenary captain and 700 of his men (paid for out of his own pocket) arrived at Constantinople to aid it's defence. A highly charismatic and talented commander he managed to hold his own against Mehmed's till he was struck by shrapnel which resulted in many of the city's defenders, who were raw recruites, to break and flee. His men though, managed to ferry him away as the city fell but he died of his wounds within a few days. A sad but powerful true story the deserves to be a movie or historical fiction.

      - 🇸🇪 Johann Thunmann
      - 🇩🇪 Ritter von Xilander

      Etc ...
      From the beginning of the Paleolithic the territory of Illyria (formerly, from the two banks of the Danube to Epirus) was occupied by men as proven by numerous discoveries of which the Karprina caves dating from approximately 160.000 years (currently in Croatia), the Gjatan cave (in Albania near Shkodër), etc. .
      Eugene Pittard (🇫🇷) affirmed in 1916: "I have already said elsewhere that Albania seems to me to contain the most important archaeological and anthropological documents for what concerns the origins of the MOST ANCIENT POPULATIONS OF THE BALKAN PENINSULA; populations that, at the dawn of history, we see appear under the name of Illyrians!

      First of all I open a parenthesis about the name of Albania or Albanians quoted by Strabo (around 58-21/25) in the 1st century BC and Claudius Ptolemy (around 100 - 170 AD) in the 2nd century AD.
      It derives from the name of an Illyrian tribe, the Albanoi, which was located around the city of Albanopolis (now Zgërdhesh located in the region of Krujë).
      Moreover, even today, a region of Albania, from the north of Tirana (between the rivers Mat and Erzen), is called Albëni (gheg dialect) or Arbëri (tosk dialect).
      But this name Albanoi with its various variants (Arbanites, Arvanites, Arvanitis, Arvanos, Arban, Arbani, Arbanon, Arnavuts, Arnauts, Arbëri, Arbër, Arbëni, Arbën, Albën, Albanois, or Albanians) really began to spread when the Albanian territories became a field of hostility and a buffer zone between Byzantines and the new Slavic invaders (Serbs, Croats etc.. ...) towards the beginning of the seventh century AD.
      Several writers of the eleventh century, including Michel Attaliate and Jean Skyltzes, have recounted this kind of confrontation and widely spoken of these Albanian mountain tribes.
      It is the Angevin chancelleries (Charles I of Anjou, brother of St Louis, proclaimed himself king of Albania in 1272) which, in the 13th century, conveyed the name of Albanian or Albanians, which spread rapidly, like wildfire, throughout Europe.
      It should be noted that the Albanians never use this name (Albanian) to designate their own ethnic group: they call themselves Shqiptar, that is to say son or child of the eagle.

      @Jiraiya Sennin I still don't get the point of your comment. Are you trying to say that the western and the eastern Roman empire never were close or something like that? And also, you can't call someone hypocrite because you blame him for something that happened hundreds of years ago and something he didn't do personally. Also you can't put shame on a country for something that our ancestors did. I mean you can do it but if you do it you're just a jerk.

      @Jiraiya Sennin that's the point! We, or at least I, don't blame the turks of today but the ones of that time. If you pay attention to the comments you'll notice that no one is insulting modern turks, instead, the talk is about the ones that needed two months to conquer a city when they had almost twenty times the number of the troops of the byzantine and had better technology. So again, no one blames you're people (as opposed to what you are doing) but they blame your ancestors.

      The Illyrians 🇦🇱 contributed a lot to the Roman/Byzantine Empire 🦅 (Fearsome Warriors).
      Here is the list of Roman Emperors 🤴 of Illyrian origin (🇦🇱):
      - Justinian I
      - Justin I
      - Anastasius I
      - Marcianus
      - Valentinian II
      - Gratian

      - Probus

      This region was late Romanized. It was famous for its excellent soldiers, frustrated but courageous. In Illyria (in the geographical sense) was indeed the most powerful of the Roman armies, in charge of watching over the Danube (nearly 12 legions, that is to say 130 000 men) .

    When - during the greek revolution - a british naval commander named Cordington suggested to Kolokotronis that the greeks should come to terms with the Turks, Kolokotronis replied: "Our king did not come to terms."
    This was Constantine's legacy.
