Synopsis

Ali Pasha (1740 – 1822), variously referred to as of Tepelena or of Janina/Yannina/Ioannina, or the Lion of Yannina, was an Albanian ruler who served as pasha of a large part of western Rumelia, the Ottoman Empire’s European territories, which was referred to as the Pashalik of Yanina. His court was in Ioannina, and the territory he governed incorporated central and southern Albania, most of Epirus and the western parts of Thessaly and Greek Macedonia.
