sentences:  After World War II, Albania was taken under the Communist regime, with Hoxha as the leader of the nation who prohibited any type of religion, claiming that religion divides the Albanian population.Albania was under Hoxha's dictatorship for nearly 5 decades, until the early 1990s, when it became a democratic state.However, the new democratic state has struggled and it is still very irregular, unstable and corrupt which makes it very difficult for Albania to join the European Union; but despite this fact, the Albanians are very tolerant toward other religions as a consequence of the constant ban on religion and being forced to coexist with other religious groups in order to unify the nation.
