Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Balšić noble family" in English language version.
Balsha ( Balša , Balšić ) Adelsfamilie wahrscheinlich serbischer Herkunft, die von etwa 1360 bis 1421 Montenegro und große Teile Albaniens beherrschte .
In Northern Albania it was the Balšič family who took over, but though they reigned for four generations they were not nearly as powerful as the Nemanjids and can hardly pass muster as a heroic Albanian family, being Slavs, fighting other Albanians and subservient at various times to Serbs, Turks and Venetians.
La famiglia dei Balšić probabilmente traeva origine dai Valacchi slavizzati, ed era emersa tra le fila dei nobili e dei gran signori.
