Abstract

The end of the First World War found the Albanians in no enviable position, both in the domestic and international level. Kosovo and Macedonia were subjected to occupation, namely violent Reconquista from Serbian, Yugoslav state respectively. The situation became even more difficult, given that the destinies of peoples are determined by the factor of power and the position of the winner. Armies, which had entered Albanian lands, considered themselves part of the Entente Alliance, which won the war. Consequently, they had already made plans for cutting the Albanian lands among them. On the other hand, Albania, in this very unfavorable situation in the Paris Peace Conference (1919) have made the correct efforts historical injustices that had been done in the past and reconfirmation of independence. The situation was far more complex than can be said, therefore at the last moment, when we face seriously open to question, to reconfirm the independence of Albania and is preparation script fragmentation of Albania between Italy, Greece and the Kingdom of SCS, came the response from American diplomacy and President Wilson for reconfirmation of Albania's independence and accession of Albania state to the League of Nations.
