Albania (1928-1939), King
An influential Albanian chieftain before and during World War I,
he was president (1925-28) and thereafter king (1928-46) of Albania.
He was a member of the Albanian cabinet (premier, 1922-24),
and overthrew (1924) the regime of Fan Stylian Noli.
He married (1938) Countess Geraldine Apponyi,
by whom he had one son, [Leka], born in 1939.
Zog's close collaboration with Italy made Albania virtually an Italian protectorate,
and he went into exile (April, 1939) following Italian occupation of Albania
when Victor Emmanuel III became king of Albania as well as Italy.
He was deposed (1946) in absentia by the Communist regime
and a republic was declared.
