Are people in the Balkans aware or view Albania as a ‘Muslim’ nation?

That's because Albanians are overwhelmingly secular in nature, culture and lifestyle. While Sunni Muslims make the biggest religious group by 45.7% (source: 2023 census conducted by Institution of Statistics INSTAT) there's something unique to Albanians of Albania that needs to be taken into consideration: more often than not religion is just a label that gets passed down from the parents that determines which holidays you celebrate and which funerary ceremonies to follow and nothing else beyond that. Other than that we all behave the same and religion doesn't play any significant role in our lives. I know this concept is hard for some foreigners to wrap their head around so, before anyone gets salty and comes to me with some bs rhetoric: I was born and bred here and lived my entire life here, I know better than you. Sorry if this paragraph comes off as condescending, but it's not directed to everyone (not to the OP either), just the few who are salty about the way we are.
