Romet shume i kane ndihmue shkijet gjate luftes se Kosoves. Kam degju plote rraste te tilla.
They’re muslim and culturally albanised Roma communities as far as I know.
Usually the Ashkali are the integrated roma. Romanis the non integrated
they really have nothing to do with egypt, they are romas who lost their language and culture, now they speak albanian
the non begging kind
I read that they are descendants of Egyptian soldiers who (unfortunately, not proud of that part of our history) fought with Ottomans against the Greek revolutionaries during their war of independence and escaped from Greece eventually settling in Albania.
