During the two last centuries, one of unavoidable topics worldwide was the Balkans, crisis area that has always been susceptible to different influences of great powers that have skillfully exploited disagreements of national states and strived to satisfy their own interests, supporting exclusively one side. Explicit territorial claims of some national communities in the Balkans towards neighboring countries contributed to the rise of separatism, Albanian in particular, often inducing crises, as well as ethnic and national conflicts in this region. The main cause of separatism and conflict of interests in the Balkan Peninsula lies in its geostrategic and geopolitical location - throughout the history this has never been an organized, stable and united geopolitical region. Albanian separatism in the Balkans, as any other separatism, calls for careful consideration of external and internal factors that, by the end of the last century, led to armed conflicts, and today they provoke ethnic hatred and intolerance, as well as possible ethnic conflicts.
