What are your thoughts on that for the first time in history, Muslims aren't the majority in Albania?

every albanian I've met has been really decent person. no comment on it, am surprised muslim would fade in favor of catholic when catholic is fading in Europe proper.

There are a lot of Albanians in Germany and Italy. Maybe they went there.

[KostasKouvalis]

Or people are leaving Islam

[Avicenna]

That could definitely be the case in Albania, where they were never very fervent. Islam came there via Ottoman conquest.

[KostasKouvalis]

And I imagine it was extremely suppressed during the Communist times

[Avicenna]

It definitely was

Is it an Orthodox comeback? A Catholic one? I am surprised.

[KostasKouvalis]

Orthodox

[Curmudgeon]

@KostasKouvalis I ask because for many years it was 70/30 Muslim/Catholic, although the batshit Marxist Enver Hoxha did his best to snuff out both.

[KostasKouvalis]

I guess it's both. Catholics are slightly higher. I didn't know there were Catholics in Albania

[purplepoppy]

Probably because they've all moved to England

[KostasKouvalis]

Did they really?
