Yes indeed. And dont forget warrior monks, everyone loves warrior monks!
And how could I forget some of my favorite warriors ever, the Timurids!
And of course Nubian warrios. The protoype for the later Makurian armies that would hold the Arabs out of Sudan for over 400 years:

Oguzoglu, I know that yeniçeris means Yeni= new çeris=Army, but why is it yeniçeris and not yeniçeriler? I guess that is a grammer question here. Also, they are called in Arabic Al Jayesh Al Inkeshari, Al Jayesh= The army, Inkeshari= Jenessaries. Does Inkeshari come from any Turkish word? ------------- D.J.

I think so because many Turkish words used and still in use in Balkans.

I dont have much info on it besides that. 
I have a great-uncle still alive in Albania who my uncle is getting info on now. By n ext year the history of my family should be done.
There was a lot for them to contend with. This guy was in the area of Korca. In that area there were also pro-Grek Albanians, who defined with the religion they followed and many pro-Greek vlachs needless to say the Ottomans also. They would all eventually be defeated in the area through the interventions of many. At one point the territory also fell to the French. ------------- |
