#1 Seems like Albanians' modus operandi is to move people into neighboring countries, pushing the locals out as they go and then claim the country should be merged with Albania. As long as they encounter mush they'll keep pushing.

#5 When we were there during the Kosovo war, we would take breaks at lake Ohrid.

#8 The way I understood it was Communist Yugoslavia created a chunk called Macedonia so that they could lay claim to proper Macedonia in neighboring Greece.
