Albania gained its independence in 1912 during the first Balkan war and was under the mandate of all the great powers. At that time there wasn’t any real desire for independence among the Albania population but this was seen as necessary to distance itself from the Turkish Empire and by doing so to same as much territory as possible from its Balkan neighbors.
If Albania was given autonomy instead of independence and 2 strong Turkish divisions was stationed there supported by 3 local territorial divisions with a small naval force in Valona, how would this affect world war 1.
For how long could the Serb+Montenegrin forces resist a A-H and Turkish attack?
Would Bulgaria join the Central Powers sooner?
How does all this affect Greece?
How about the war overall?
