What happened in Albania between 1912-28? I know in 1920 Italy tried to take over, but failed. BTW for Serbia, it should be 1878, not 1978

I thought that Albania was made a kingdom in the peace treaties immediately after the Second Balkan War (June-July 1913) because of Austro-Hungarian influence, which didn't want to see the area become Serbian.

If you want a tonne of history information categorised by nation, I highly recommend the following site: http://www.emulateme.com

Just pick a country from the list in the drop-down box on the right side of the page. Some country's don't have their history listed, but many others do. And those that do, have the BEST information i've yet been able to find.

If you need military/information related sites for good info, check out my website's militaria page here: http://www.geocities.com/hellrepublic/militaria.html

I really need to update that list one of these days.
