Albanian diaspora: 2.8 million live in Albania, with an estimated 8.5 million world total (the largest populations being in '''Italy, Greece, Turkey, the United States, Canada and Australia'''). | |||
*The largest concentration of Albanians outside the country is in neighboring '''Kosovo'''. | |||
*Other Albanian enclaves are in '''southern Serbia, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Romania, Russia, Turkey, Ukraine, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and coastal Croatia'''. | |||
*Another population of ethnic Albanians, known as the '''Arbereshe''', has lived in '''southern Italy, especially in regions of Abruzzo, Calabria, Campania, Naples, Apulia and Sicily''' for over eight centuries. | |||
*In the 19th and 20th centuries, repeated large waves of Albanian emigration took place as '''Albanians moved to northern and Western Europe (i.e. France, Germany, Hungary, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden and the U.K.), the former Soviet Union, the U.S., and with smaller numbers in Mexico and South America), Australia and across Asia (the former Ottoman Empire in the Middle East).''' | |||
