Summary

Description
English: This map represents the distribution of Orthodox Christians in Albania around 1900, based on censuses from 1877, 1908 and 1918, and drawn on the modern day provinces (except that Kiri is separated from Shkodra, as it was in 1918) . Note that because it incorporates data from different dates and that province boundaries have changed, a bit of estimation is involved.

Own work Data & Map Sources: 1. Gruber, Siegried. Regional variation in marriage patterns in Albania at the beginning of the 20th century. Data ultimately derived from the 1918 census. See here (maps found near bottom): [1]. See also this map: [2], notable as it includes data for major cities as well w/o surrounding country-side (interestingly, it has slightly different data, such as counting Fieri as almost universally Orthodox while in the other version it has a large Muslim minority). Used for info on Northern and Central Albania. Unfortunately, due to the political instability there, the South was not included in this census, nor were certain eastern regions (Bulqiza, Librazhd, etc.).

2. Destani, Beytullah. Albania and Kosovo: Political and Ethnic Boundaries, 1867-1946. --Used for Ottomon census data of the late 1800s and 1908 (also contains the distorted Greek nationalist and later Albanian nationalist-produced figures of South Albania). Note also that Pogradec is called 'Starovo'. Used for Southern Albania

3. This late 19th-century Greco-German ethno-religious map of Northwest Greece and Southern Albania, all the way up to Myzeqe

4. De Rapper, Gilles. Religion in Post-Communist Albania. (link: http://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/docs/00/32/72/00/PDF/de_Rapper_2008_Religion_in_postcommunist_Albania.pdf) --Info on Devoll, a newly created district, as majority Muslim with a large Orthodox minority. It is unlikely that today's demographics are much different from those of that era as there is no evidence of mass conversions since then.

Notes:

1. The kazas of Himara and Leskoviku are separated off from Vlora and Erseka (Kolonja) like they were in Ottoman times, but unlike today.
