Before the Romans conquered what is now Albany (168 BC) it was a called
Epirus.
After that it was mostly part of
Macedonia.
Albania as mentioned by Tacitus and others is located in the Caucasus.
This list is far from complete.
There is not always an 1:1 relation between a place etc. in Roman times and a name in our days.
Sometimes a people giving their name to a place and that place are combined.
Some names are followed by a link to a site with that title
I tried to find suitable sites in English, but did not always succeed.
If you know better sites, please let me know.
