Mehmet Ismail Shehu ( January 10, 1913 – December 17, 1981 ) was an Albanian communist politician who served as premier of Albania from 1954 to 1981.

The First Balkan War, which lasted from October 1912 to May 1913, strengthened Bulgaria's position as a regional military power, significantly reduced Ottoman influence over the Balkans, and resulted in the formation of an independent Albanian state.

When the war ended on 11 November 1918, Italy's army had occupied most of Albania ; Serbia held much of the country's northern mountains ; Greece occupied a sliver of land within Albania's 1913 borders ; and French forces occupied Korçë and Shkodër as well as other regions with sizable Albanian populations such as Kosovo.

The relations between Kosovo's ethnic Albanian and Serb populations have been hostile since the rise of nationalism in the Balkans during the 19th century, rivalry which became strong after Serbia gained Kosovo from the Ottoman Empire in 1913 and after Albania became independent in the same year.

In essence, Serbia was forced to exchange Macedonia for Albania, an issue that would play a key role in the eventual dissolution of the League in the spring of 1913, when the Great Powers insisted upon the creation of the Albanian state and denied Serbia her territorial gains in that direction.

The offer of the Albanian throne was first made to him in the spring of 1913 but he turned it down.

The Royal Yugoslav Army invades Albanian territories they had not previously occupied ; League of Nations commission forces Yugoslav withdrawal and reaffirms Albania's 1913 borders.

In July 1913, the Great Powers opted to recognize an independent, neutral Albanian state ruled by a constitutional monarchy and under the protection of the Great Powers.

Isa Boletini contributed in the protection of Vlora government, while later was part of the Albanian delegation to the London Conference ( 1913 ) together with Ismail Qemali, Albanian head of state.

From 1913, he was a Privatdozent whose field was " Indo-European linguistics with special consideration to Albanian, Baltic and Slavic languages “.

The delineation of the exact boundaries of the Albanian state under the Protocol of Florence ( 17 December 1913 ) was highly unpopular among the local Greek population of Southern Albania ( or Northern Epirus for Greeks ), who after their revolt managed to declare the Autonomous Republic of Northern Epirus, which was internationally recognized as an autonomous region inside Albania under the terms of the Protocol of Corfu.

Albanian forces retook the city on September 20, 1913.

In September 1913 local Albanian and pro-Bulgarian Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization leaders rebelled against the Kingdom of Serbia.

He was born in Konitsa, a small town in Epirus, which following the decisions of the London Conference of 1913 that shrank the Albanian state to the present borders, remained with Greece.

Pašić, though he often talked tough in public, knew that Serbia was near-bankrupt and, having suffered heavy casualties in the Balkan Wars and in the suppression of a December 1913 Albanian revolt in Kosovo, needed peace.

He became a passionate advocate of Albanian independence, having visited the country in 1907, 1911 and 1913.

Northern Epirus was under Greek administration during the First Balkan War ( 1912 – 1913 ), but it was then awarded to the newly founded Albanian state by the Florence Protocol ( 1913 ).

He organized the Albanian Congress of Trieste, held in period February 27 — March 6, 1913.
