1. Scanderbeg.... cliche
2. Leke Dukagjini . Wrote the famous "Canon of Leke"
3. Gjergj Fishta. Catholic priest, but more importantly was considered the "Albanian homer" from writting his famous epic "lahuta e malcise", highland lute. Big figure of early Alb nationalist movement. He was later condemned by the communists for being anti-Slavic and too pro-Turkish.
4. Ismail Qemali. Responsible for the nationalist movement in Vlora to setup a free Albanian state.

Thats it for now. Too lazy to go on...

my country is a new country but our history is part of the Arabian/islamic history.

for Arabic Hisotry the most important person will be for sure Prophet Mohammed then his first companions then the good Caliphs after them.

 

 for UAE it would be our late first president and Founder of the union Sheikh Zayed and Co-founder of the Union the late sheikh Rashid ruler of Dubai and many people who participated in the development of UAE in its first days.

Not only were the Huns a proto-Turkic tribe (and therefore Attila was), but Turks and Turkey along side Hungary are the only people/nation to exhonorate him and see him as a national figure.  In fact, Turks have the sole claim because modern Hungarians are actually descendants of Arpad's tribe that migrated from Eurasia through the Carpathians not from the Huns.

Also the Chinese called Huns ''Tu-Kiu'' (Turk) as well as ''Xiong-Nu'' (Hun)

Andrew Jackson- General at the Battle of New Orleans in the War of 1812. Became President in the 1824(or 1828) election, and was very popular.

Thomas Jefferson- Writer of the Declaration of Independence, and founded the belief of speration of Church from State. Our third President that made the Loiusiana Purchase.

Alexander Hamilton- Son of a failed Scottish merchant in the West Indies, life did not look so well for Alexander. However, he became a great economist, founded our national bank. One of the elite federalists.

James Polk- Though I despise him, he won the Mexican-American War and pushed our boundary with Canada.
