When Tauren are bored with fighting monsters and Alliance, they like to frequent pubs for some light drinking. Of course, when that drinking gets a little too heavy and a fellow gets drunk, who knows what will happen to him while he is passed out cold? It's best not to wear a kilt when drinking.

Quote:
There is an old Illyrian place called Albulenë that is Alb = white Ule (old
Illyrian) = water or " Ujë i bardhë" today Albanian.
The same derivation has Ulk (old Illyrian) by the name of the ancient city
Ulkinon (today Ulqin) to Ujk that mean wolf.
Albania derives from the same Indo-European source as the name of the Alps,
which also appears in the Scottish "Albainn", for "highlands".
Alternatively, "Albania" may derive from the ancient Indo-European root
*albho, meaning "white", which also gave the name Albion, the ancient name
of England.
The first known occurance of the word Albanoi as the name of an Illyrian
tribe in what is now north-central Albania goes back to 130 AD, in a work of
Ptolemy. Albanopolis of the Albani is a place located on the map of Ptolemy
and also named on an ancient family epitaph at Scupi (near Skopje) , which
has been identified with the Zgërdhesh hill-fort near Kruja in northern
Albania. Arbanon is likely to be the name of a district - the plain of the
Mat has been suggested - rather than a particular place. An indication of
movement from higher altitudes in a much earlier period has been detected in
the distribution of place-names ending in -esh that appears to derive from
the latin -enisis or -esis, between the Shkumbin and the Mat rivers, with a
concentration between Elbasan and Kruja.
The term "Albanoi" may have been slowly spread to other Illyrian tribes
until its usage became universal among all the Albanian people. According to
the Albanian scholar Faïk bey Konitza, the term "Albania" did not displace
"Illyria" completely until the end of the fourteenth century. The word
"Alba" or "Arba" seems to be connected with the town Arba (modern Rab,
Croatia), in prehistoric times inhabited by the semi-Illyrian Liburnians,
first mentioned in 360 BC.
Approximately a millennium later, some Byzantine writers used the words
"Albanon" and "Arbanon" to indicate the region of Kruja. Under the Angevine
rulers, in the 13th century, the names "Albania" and "Albanenses" indicated
the whole country and all the population, as is demonstrated by the works of
many ancient Albanian writers such as Budi, Blanco and Bogdano. We first
learn of Albanians in their native land as the Arbanites of Arbanon in Anna
Comnenas' account (Alexiad 4) of the troubles in that region caused by the
Normans during the reign of her father Alexius I Comneus (1081-1118). In the
History written in 1079-1080, Byzantine historian Michael Attaliates was
first to refer to the Albanoi as having taken part in a revolt against
Constantinople in 1043 and to the Arbanitai as subjects of the duke of
Dyrrachium. The Italo-Albanians and the Albanian minorities still present in
Greece have been known by different names over time: Arbënuer, Arbënor,
Arbëneshë, Arbreshë, Arbëreshë.
There seems to be no doubt that the root alb- or arb- is earlier than
shqip-, from which the modern name of the state (Shqipëria) derives, a name
which appears only in the time of the Turkish invasions. The Albanian name
of the country, Shqipëria, translates into English as "Land of the Eagles",
hence the two-headed bird on the national flag and emblem, and because of
the large presence of these animals in the mountainous zones of Albania.
Albanian names, like all nouns, appear under two forms "indefinite" and
"definite". Hence Tiranë/Tirana, Krujë/Kruja, Elbasan/Elbasani,
Durrës/Durrësi… The definite form is the equivalent of adding the article
"the" in front of the noun. The common scholarly usage is to mention
feminine names in the definite form, while the masculine are mentioned in
the indefinite: Tirana, Kruja, Elbasan, Durrës, etc. But it is not always
the case.
Since Albanian territories have long been under foreign rule, historical
documents may mention Albanian place-names in their Greek, Latin, Italian
(Venetian), Turkish, Slavic, or even French versions. For instance, Durrës
has been called Dyrrachion, Dyrrachium, Durazzo, Draç, Drac and Duras.
Another source of confusion from historical sources may come from a
transformation of "-n-" into "-r-", called "rhotacism", which took place in
the Southern (Tosk) dialects and prevails in the literary language. Hence,
the Greek/Latin "Avlona" which gave the Italian Valona" is now "Vlora".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our earliest mentioning is in the 200 Anno Domini - 4 centuries before the
arrival of the Serbs. They are mentioned as Albanoi, which is thought to
mean 'white' - ironically, the Illyrian name for the tribe was parthini, and
the first part -parth resembles our modern word -bardh, meaning precisely
white, whereas the suffix -ini resembles our suffix -inj, defining the word
as smth plural, i.e. Parthians, Parthinj.
That we're an autochtonous nation in the Balkans is not even disputed among
prominent Serb intellectuals and historians. The only dispute is whether
we're Illyrian or Thracian, which in relation to our autochtony in Kosova
(ancient Dardania) is irrelevant, since ancient Kosova was home to both
Illyrians as well as Thracians, as is confirmed by ancient toponyms. But
whilst Serb and Bulgarian historians have advocated a Thracian or/and Dacian
origins of our people, most others have supported the Illyrian thesis, to
the point where now only Serbs seem to favor the Thracian alternative. The
Croat historian and Illyrologist Aleksandar Stipcevic formulates himself
rather well when he states following;
Quote:
The result achieved by workers in different disciplines in recent decades
have reduced the importance of the work that relied on now obsolete
linguistc evidence, and have made the autochthony of the Albanians, i.e.
increasingly indisputable.
And this ...
Quote:
Nevertheless, the number of researchers still today refusing to take into
consideration the many arguments supplied by different academic disciplines
has shrunk, or, more accurately, absolutely the only researchers who deny
the theory of Albanian autochthony are Serbian.

Here's one Serbian document mentioning us in the 12th century, an extract
from the Dusanova Zakonik;
Quote:
A brawl between villages, fifty perpers, (one perper was worth six gold
francs); but between Vlachs and Albanians, one hundred perpers.
Here are some more quotes;
Quote:
In the II Century BC, the geographer and astronomer from Alexandria, Ptolemy
drafted a map of remarkable significance for the history of Illyria. This
map shows the city of Albanopolisi (located south of Durrës), from which the
Albanians were later on to be identified by the world.
Quote:
The first mention of Albanians in the region corresponding to modern Albania
is as the Arbanites of Arbanon in Anna Commenas account of the troubles in
that region caused in the reign of her father Alexius I Comneus (1081- 1110)
by the Normans. (The Alexiad The Alexiad is a book written around the year
1148 by the Byzantine historian Anna Comnena, the daughter of Emperor
Alexius I. She describe the political and military history Byzantine Empire
during the reign of her father (1081-1110) , making it one of the most
important sources of information on the Byzantines of the Middle Ages....

was first to refer to the "Albanoi" as having taken part in a revolt against

Dyrrachium.
Quote:
1285 in Dubrovnik (Ragusa) where a sizeable Albanian community had existed
for some time. In the investigation of a robbery in the house of Petro del
Volcio of Belena (now Prati), a certain Matthew, son of Mark of Mançe, who
appears to have been witness to the crime, states: "Audivi unam vocem
clamantem in monte in lingua albanesca" (I heard a voice crying in the
mountains in the Albanian language).

Our first mentioning is in the 2th century AD, four centuries before the
Serb arrival in the Balkans. It's from that Illyrian tribe (the Albanoi) we
received our ethnonym. They were mentioned by the Greek geographer Ptolemy
Claudius of Alexandria, in his work Geographia, as situated near the modern
capital Tirana;
Our own medieval term for ourselves wasn't Albanian with the letter 'l', but
Arberesh or Arberor or Arban, with 'r', from whence the Slav term 'Arbanas'
and Greek term 'Arvanites' came from, when they referred to us. This name
stems also from the Illyrian era;
Quote:
In the II Century BC, in the History of the World, written by Polybius,
there is mention of a city named Arbon in present day central Albania. The
people who lived there were called Arbanios and Arbanitai.
This mention of us is in the IIth century BC - 8 centuries before the
arrival of the Serbs. I It doesn't end there though;
Quote:
In the I Century AD, Pliny the Elder mentions an Illyrian tribe named
Olbonenses.
The first century Anno Domini - five centuries before the Serbs' arrival.
Replace the letter 'o' with 'a' and you'll get (*surprise* *surprise*)
Albonenses or Albanenses!!! And finally;
Quote:
In the II Century AD, Ptolemy, the geographer and astronomer from
Alexandria, drafted a map of remarkable significance for the history of
Illyria. This map shows the city of Albanopolis (located south of Durrës).
Ptolemy also mentions the Illyrian tribe named Albanoi, who lived around
this city.

Here is something that shows continuation of Illyrian culture
Another continuation of culture is the law of canon or kanun...which was the
natural law the Albanians lived for centuries, it is believed to be a older
law than the time of Skenderbe since the kanun of Skenderbe, or Leke
Dukagjini, and the southern Albanian kanun were basically the same!
Perendi
The Albanian thunder god of Illyrian origin. He is the consort of Prende,
the goddess of love. Perendi is identical with the Lithuanian Perkunas and
the Latvian Perkons.
