Mallakastër () is a region and a municipality in Fier County, southwestern Albania. It was created in 2015 by the merger of the present municipalities Aranitas, Ballsh, Fratar, Greshicë, Hekal, Kutë, Ngraçan, Qendër Dukas and Selitë. The seat of the municipality is the town Ballsh.〔(Law nr. 115/2014 )〕 The total population is 27,062 (2011 census), in a total area of 329.19 km2.〔(Interactive map administrative territorial reform )〕 It is coterminous with the former Mallakastër District. The municipality takes its name from the Mallakastër hills. Their highest point is the hill Shëndëlli (712 m).〔Soviet military map К-34-124-Б (1:50.000)〕 The people from this region are called ''Mallakastriotë''. They do not speak a different dialect from other regions in southern Albania, but they do have some small differences. The region has produced many brave fighters, but has been relatively poor at times due to the poor agricultural productivity of the terrain. Mallakastër is an industrially important region for Albania since it has reserves of natural gas and oil. ==Notable people== *Kadri Roshi, famous actor *Mehmet Shehu, communist politician *Rrapo Hekali, key figure in the Albanian revolt of 1847 *Liri Belishova, communist politician *Qani Toro, communist politician 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mallakastër」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
