Early Life
Enver Hoxha was born in Gjirokastër, Albania, in 1908. His father was a wealthy merchant and his mother was a devout Muslim. Hoxha attended school in France and Belgium, where he became involved in communist politics. He returned to Albania in 1936 and joined the Communist Party of Albania (CPA).
Rise to Power
In 1941, Albania was invaded by Italy. Hoxha led the resistance against the Italian occupation and, in 1944, the communists took power. Hoxha became the leader of the new communist government.
Reign of Terror
Hoxha ruled Albania with an iron fist. He established a totalitarian dictatorship and suppressed all opposition. He was responsible for the deaths of thousands of Albanians, including many of his own political rivals.
Hoxha's regime was also characterized by its isolation from the rest of the world. Albania was expelled from the United Nations in 1961 and Hoxha broke off relations with the Soviet Union in 1968. Albania became one of the most isolated countries in the world.
Death and Legacy
Hoxha died in 1985. He was succeeded by Ramiz Alia, who gradually began to open up Albania to the outside world. Albania eventually became a democracy in 1992.
Hoxha's legacy is a complex one. He was a ruthless dictator who committed many crimes against the Albanian people. However, he also led Albania to independence from foreign powers and he played a role in the development of the country.
Enver Hoxha was a complex and controversial figure. He was a communist dictator who ruled Albania with an iron fist. However, he also led Albania to independence from foreign powers and he played a role in the development of the country. His legacy is still debated today.
