Vlach in Albania (VlachAlb)

Vlach comes from a Gothic word meaning “Roman.” Vlachs, also called Arumani, have Jewish, Slavic, and Greek roots, so their culture is more defined by their language than their ethnicity. The Vlach are some of Europe’s last semi-nomadic pastoralists, and Arumani shepherds are often known for a distinctive black cape they wear. The Vlach span both Albania and Greece creating complex relationships across the borders.
