Albania
Roma people have lived in Albania for 600 years. Originally from the Indian continent, it is believed that Roma people in Albania have arrived via three different ways: Turkey, Greece and Montenegro. There are four tribes living in Albania that all speak the same language and have the same traditions and culture. In Albania there is religious and ethnical tolerance and because of this Roma people can live peacefully here. An estimated 120.000-150.000 Roma people are living in Albania, with a concentration in the south-east of the country. These are not official data since there still has been no study on the registration of Roma people.
