The Venetians, worn down by Ottoman Turk …
Years: 1501 - 1501
The Venetians, worn down by Ottoman Turk assaults, evacuate Durrës in 1501.
The defeats trigger a great exodus of Albanian refugees, most of whom belong to the Orthodox Church, to southern Italy, especially to the kingdom of Naples, as well as to Sicily, Greece, Wallachia, and Egypt.
