Abstract: In June 1924 in Albania, the political clashes that had begun a year earlier culminated in an armed conflict. The opposition forces, taking advantage of the assassination of the Albanian politician Avni Rustemi, organized an uprising and seized power. Prominent political and military figures of the time took part in this movement. The most important figure of these events was Fan Noli, a deputy from Korça. The uprising was centered in Vlora, but other northern cities, such as Shkodra, also supported it. Korça, however, remained neutral in this confrontation. This paper seeks to answer the question: Why did Korça choose to remain neutral? To understand the reasons behind this choice, we will analyze the political and historical situation of the Korça region and the factors that led to this stance.
