The diplomat Juan Pedro Aladro Kastriota was the pretender of the throne of Albania.[2] Kastriota claimed descent from the medieval nobel Kastrioti family through his paternal grandmother.
During the Spanish Civil War, many Albanians took part on this event as members of the International Brigades, such as Asim Vokshi who was a staff officer of the Garibaldi Battalion, scholar and anti-fascist activist Skënder Luarasi, and novelist Petro Marko, who was a volunteer of the republican force of the event. His best-known novel is titled Hasta La Vista.
