Talk:Epirus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The phrase "Despotate of Epirus - one of the successor states of the Byzantine Empire" is not exactly accurate. Perhaps we should change it to something like "Despotate of Epirus - part of the Byzantine Empire". I mean, it was a despotate but for about a century before the (final) fall of the empire, it was reincorporated to the empire. +MATIA ☎ 13:03, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
Albanau wrote that "Epirus - was used in the medieval times as a synonym for the Balkan country Albania due to its geographical location". That's false; what's known as Albania began its existence in 1913. — Sshadow 14:13, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
- Perhaps what Albanau meant was that part of the historical region is in what's now Albania? I've added this distinction to the disambig. -- ChrisO 14:30, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
OK. That makes more sense. — Sshadow 19:21, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
