Creating a Greater Albania uniting all major groups of Albanians in one state is the proclaimed aim of some Albanian political and military groups.

The justification for the borders presented often includes reference to the situation prior to World War I, and the argument that these pre-war boundaries should be restored.

Although it is likely that only a relatively small number of people are committed to the idea, in the rough and tumble of Balkan ethnic politics, some think that the threat of a Greater Albanian project is sometimes used to justify policies that exclude ethnic Albanians from full political participation in the State (for example in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia), or in pre-1999 Kosovo.
