	The formation of the Albanian identity and the development of an independent Albania from 1912 onwards was preceded by the Albanian national movement from the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries. It was at this time that the maximum program of the Albanian National Revival was born, which propagandized the unification of all Albanians in one state from the 1870s. This status quo of the Balkans, reached by the Versailles peace system, was destroyed in the course of the Second World War, when the created “Greater Albania” was a wartime creature. After the end of the Paris peace conference and the establishment of the new post-war order in Europe and the Balkans, the Albanian issue in Yugoslavia and the Albanian factor in the Yugoslav-Albanian relations experienced a difficult development.
