Albania Introduction - 2004
https://immigration-usa.com/wfb2004/albania/albania_introduction.html
SOURCE: 2004 CIA WORLD FACTBOOK
Background:
Between 1990 and 1992 Albania ended 46 years of xenophobic Communist rule and established a multiparty democracy. The transition has proven difficult as successive governments have tried to deal with high unemployment, widespread corruption, a dilapidated infrastructure, powerful organized crime networks with links to high government officials, and disruptive political opponents. International observers judged parliamentary elections in 2001 to be acceptable and a step toward democratic development, but identified serious deficiencies. Some of these were addressed through reforms in the Albanian electoral code prior to the nationwide municipal elections in 2003.
NOTE: The information regarding Albania on this page is re-published from the 2004 World Fact Book of the United States Central Intelligence Agency.
