albania

Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro, Albania - they are certainly not good neighbors.

But ask me today to place Slovenia, Bulgaria, and Albania on a map - and I'd be at a loss.

Sure, me playing Scrabble with a guy from Albania isn't really imparting any specific education about Albanian culture - but does it need to?

De Niros character is a Hollywood producer, hired to produce a fake war in Albania to distract from a sex scandal before an election.

Those do have to use passports for free movement (and to enter countries like Albania which offer general entry on the sole basis of EEA citizenship).

No it isn't (eg turkey, albania, etc etc etc.).

I can understand removing some of the smallest countries, but Bosnia has a larger population than Albania or any of the three Baltic countries.

I imagine that some US freelancer living in, say, Albania could contribute significantly to that country's economy if only by consuming considerably more than an average Albanian.

I suspect giving such rights to arbitrary non-EU citizens would conflict with EU regulations regarding immigration, but I don't see why a non-EU country like Albania couldn't do it.

If you want to see some "proof" of this, look at the rate of visa denials for Albania (mostly white skinned people) -- 42% denied.

Some facts are easy, like "capital of albania" or "population of shenzhen" or "age of clint eastwood".

I once did help a bit when I took a bike ride through Albania and for some reason I still get warm fuzzy feelings when I think back to those "mapmaking days".

I am not sure that putting this map together, housing of so calles "refugues" - most of them are opportunistic illegal immigrants (young males from countries without any civil war, countries like Tunisia, Albania, etc.) - makes you a "Neo-Nazi.

> Albanian I think you mean Albena not Albania, unless there was a typo in the article.

You will end up as Macedonia, Albania, Bulgaria or Romania (last two will do probably better) so I don't think you will like it.

Why would the money be spent on sustaining an early retirement in Greece, instead of adding Balkan countries, for example Albania, Macedonia and Monte Negro, to the European Union?
