* Albania is considering the possibility of ceding a token territory and recognition of sovereignty to the Bektashi Order, which, if done, would create a new European microstate. The Urdhri Bektashi was originally founded as a Sufi brotherhood in the Ottoman Empire, which moved from Turkey to Albania when its lodges were forcibly closed during the founding of the Turkish Republic. The Dedebaba (spiritual leader of the Bektashis) has apparently indicated that he envisions the state as being organized on the analogy of Vatican City. Without knowing much about the particular local details, this general sort of move seems reasonable to me, at least when it is actually feasible; and, as the history of the Bektashi Order itself shows, there is a potential value to major religious organizations not being subject to the whims of nationalist politics.
