Why do greeks use the albanian fustanella and dance chamiko ?
Fustanella is a very old albanian dress used in south especially from Laberia and Chameria regions.
Chamiko, dance from the albanian region of Chameria.
In 1944, in chameria greeks comitet ethnic cleansing of cham albanias, today unshamfully they use their dance including fustanella.
there is no Chameria, there is the Greek region of Epirus and half of it is under Albanian occupation
Albanians claim to be descendants of ancient illyrians and at the same time they confuse illyria with the Greek kingdom of Epirus! Well Albanians are not even illyrians, not even European, according to the Ottoman archives the Ottomans brought them to Europe as mercenaries from the region of Azerbaijan! They called them "Arvanutluk" which means those who did not return, because they stayed in the Northern part of Greece and never went back! Indeed in the region of Azerbaijan there is a region called Albania and the cultural and linguistic background of this place is almost identical to the albanian…………
My poor Greece everyone wants a lil bit of your glory~
