If there ever is a nuclear holocaust, Albania is the country you would want to be in.
Albanias Communist dictator Enver Hoxha was in a constant fear of foreign invasion.
During his forty-year rule between 1945 and 1985 he built an extraordinary 750,000 bunkers fearing nuclear war.
At that time there was one for every four Albanians.
The engineer answered, “Very confident”.
The shell-shocked engineer emerged unscathed and Hoxha ordered thousands of these built.

The project was a massive undertaking.
In fact, until very recently cars were in short supply in Albania.
Albania’s bunkers have now become a symbol of sorts for the country.
