Talk:albus

Did the name of the European country Albania come from Albus? If so, isn't it ironic? You have Albania, the white country, bordering Montenegro, the black mountain... 81.205.234.85 14:50, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

Well, it means "mountains", ie: "alps". What I am more interested in is the connection between mountains and white, if there is one. Clearly, the white peaked alps. However, I am uncertain in this is etymologically sound or not. 188.172.109.246 16:26, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
