Albania from Most Racist Countries in The World

Albania 1 100x100

Albania (Albanian: Shqipëria) is a small country in the Balkans. It shares borders with Greece, the Republic of Macedonia, Kosovo, and Montenegro. While most people in Albania are Muslims, there are also very large minorities of Christians. Only very few Albanians are convinced atheists. Religious observance by Albanians as a whole is relaxed (recent polling shows that only 30 to 40 percent are observant), However, practices such as saying a prayer before eating, avoiding foods containing pork (among Muslims), Lent (among Christians) and pilgrimages to the Holy Land (among Christians) are very common. Marriage between people of different religious backgrounds is very rare, so are religious conversions. Traditional Albanian culture honors the role and person of the guest. In return for this place of honor, respect is expected from the guest. Albanians enjoy long walks in the city streets, drinking coffee and, among the younger generations, participating in nightlife activities such as cafe lounging and dancing.

Comments

Albania has a lot of beauty, but there is also rampant corruption among both the government and a fair chunk of the people are known to be complicit (actively involved or don't do anything to stop it) in smuggling anything - drugs, arms, humans even, into Europe. It is a shame, but then again I mostly stuck around Tirana and Shkodar during my travels, so I cannot comment on the broader landscape, although I know that there are issues in these places like most other parts of the world. Proceed with caution.
