Kasso, 1/10 in greece are of albanian origin is wrong. The percentage is very much higher. Last decade they've assimilated very many. I'd say, excluding minorities and the albanians in Greece. The ones who see themselfs as greeks. 30% of them are of albanian origin. AT LEAST.
less then 1/1000 in albania are of greek origin. there has never been many greeks in Albania or todays north greece.

Greeks have been living in what we now call 'Albania' since antiquity. There where many ancient Greek colonies such as Dyrhacchion what you people know call 'Durres'. During the late middle ages it was full of Hellenic speaking elites and Italian merchants. Southern Illyria was fully Hellenic in late antiquity while the northern Balkans where Latin speaking.
"The city has been known by many other names in different languages due to its varied colorful history, including the Greek names Epidamnos (Åðßäáìíïò) and Dyrhacchion (ÄõññÜ÷éïí), the Latin Dyrrachium, and the Italian Durrazzo."
"The city was founded as Epidamnos in 627 BC by Greek colonists from Corinth and Corcyra. Its geographical position was highly advantageous, being situated around a natural rocky harbour which was surrounded by inland swamps and high cliffs on the seaward side, making the city very difficult to attack from either land or sea. Epidamnos was noted for being a politically advanced society, prompting the ancient philosopher Aristotle to praise its political system. However, Corinth and Corcyra quarrelled over the city, helping to precipitate the Peloponnesian War in 431 BC."
"In the 4th century AD, Dyrrachium was made the capital of the Roman province of Epirus nova. It was the birthplace of the emperor Anastasius I in circa 430. Some time later that century, Dyrrachium was struck by a powerful earthquake which destroyed the city's defences. Anastasius I rebuilt and strengthened the city walls, thus creating the strongest fortifications in the western Balkans. The 12m (36ft)-high walls were so thick that, according to the Byzantine historian Anna Komnene, four horsemen could ride abreast on them. Significant portions of the ancient city defences still remain, although they have been much reduced over the centuries.
Like much of the rest of the Balkans, Dyrrachium and the surrounding Dyrraciensis provinciae suffered considerably from barbarian incursions during the Migrations Period. It was besieged in 481 by Theodoric the Great, king of the Ostrogoths, and in subsequent centuries had to fend off frequent attacks by the Bulgarians. Following the fall of the Roman Empire, the city passed to the Byzantine Empire and continued to be an important port and a major link between the empire and western Europe."
"Durrës became a Christian city quite early on; its bishopric was created around 58 AD and was raised to the status of an archbishopric in 449. It is also the seat of a Greek Orthodox metropolitan bishop."
"Under Turkish rule, many of its inhabitants converted to Islam and many mosques were erected. "

There have been Greeks living in what we now call 'Albania' since antiquity, accept the historical reality or keep living a nationalistic lie.

Nope. Epirus was a primarily Greek land occasionally ruled by Serbs or Bulgarians. The northern part of Albania was traditionally populated by Serbs as well.

Albanians weren't even mentioned in the Balkans until the 13th century.

If you go by that logic then Montenegrins aren't slavs/yugoslavs.
