Fine Thank you!

Different Interpretetation Just like in any other case, different people can give the word different interpretation. None of them can be wrong, but they are different. So, we check the context. The word, troje, in the context in question means region and more specifically this subjects talks about Albanian regions. It is up to you to put the word Albania next to it or not. However, it can be history and it can be geography, no limitation.

Thanks, Erion
Erion Sata Jul 20, 2018:
troje Troje has a historical context and as you say in your previous comment "is used in the science of history and demography, more than in geography -- and in politics."

**just a thought** since it is not specified into "Gjeografi e trojeve shqipetare" the word troje may have a pure geographical meaning, i.e. regions/areas.
larserik (asker) Jul 20, 2018:
Thanks to both of you Klementina, I see the difference now. Changing my translation to the Swedish equivalent of "Geography of the Albanian areas". --- Erion, have you seen "trojet" in other contexts than Albanian? I search for "trojet serb", as an experiment, and there is one single hit: "memedheu sa gjak u derdh per ket kosov e per shqiperi kosova ka qen nen trojet serb o memedhe sa gjak u derdh per ty e per popullin shqipetar"
Klementina Shahini Jul 20, 2018:
Two different things Regional Geography of Albania is a subject that talks about the Geography of Albania as a country. Geography of Albanian Regions subjects is about the geography of places where Albanian lives like Albania, Kosovo, etc. it can be confused but this is what it is. I hope it makes sense and helps.
larserik (asker) Jul 19, 2018:
Thanks Klementina, but -- there's a small problem: I already have "Regional Geography of Albania 1 & 2". I have the impression that "trojet shqiptare" is an expression that is used in the science of history and demography, more than in geography -- and in politics. Maybe I could use "Geography of the Albanian people"?

Geography of regions

It is the 5th alternative on your dict. and may not necessarily refer to Albanian region. In this case It may be distinguished by common natural features of geography, geology, and climate.
