House Of Zogu
The House of Zogu, or Zogolli during Ottoman times and until 1922, is an Albanian dynasty whose roots date back to the early 20th century. The family provided the first president and the short-lived modern Albanian Kingdom with its only monarch, Zog I of Albania (1928–1939). History The dynasty was founded by Zogu Pasha, who migrated to the region of Mat in north-central Albania during the early 13th century. The most famous member of the dynasty is Zog I, who in 1928 selfproclaimed himself King of the Albanians and ruled until he was deposed by Victor Emmanuel III of Italy following the Italian invasion of 1939. Victor Emmanuel subsequently assumed the Albanian throne. With the death in exile of King Zog in 1961, he was succeeded as claimant to the throne and head of the House of Zogu by his only son Leka, Crown Prince of Albania (born 1939), who was self-proclaimed ''King of the Albanians'' by the Albanian National Assembly in exile.

Alltuni Family
The Alltuni were a wealthy and powerful Albanian feudal family at a time when the present day territory of Albania was under Ottoman rule. For almost two centuries they ruled over the entire region of Kavajë and large parts of the Myzeqe plains. They self-claimed to be the descendants of an unidentified Kapudan Pasha, a beylerbey and great admiral from Ulqin, who allegedly married a daughter of Sultan Ahmed I. Their great wealth was accumulated through sea trade, especially in the exports of livestock. The Alltuni made alliances with the Bushatlliu family of Shkodër who later rebelled against the Sublime Porte. Members of this powerful family formed blood ties through marriage with other notable Albanian families such as the Taushani family of Elbasan, the Toptani family of Krujë, the Karbunara (Shehu) family of Lushnjë and later the Zogolli family of Mat. In traditional literature, the Alltuni are mentioned in Gjergj Fishta's epic poem Lahuta e malcis (p. 227 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
People From Scutari Vilayet
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...

Deaths By Poisoning
Death is the irreversible cessation of all biological functions that sustain an organism. For organisms with a brain, death can also be defined as the irreversible cessation of functioning of the whole brain, including brainstem, and brain death is sometimes used as a legal definition of death. The remains of a former organism normally begin to decompose shortly after death. Death is an inevitable process that eventually occurs in almost all organisms. Death is generally applied to whole organisms; the similar process seen in individual components of an organism, such as cells or tissues, is necrosis. Something that is not considered an organism, such as a virus, can be physically destroyed but is not said to die. As of the early 21st century, over 150,000 humans die each day, with ageing being by far the most common cause of death. Many cultures and religions have the idea of an afterlife, and also may hold the idea of judgement of good and bad deeds in one's life (heave ...
