Northern Albania is in red.

It consists of the counties of Dibër, Durrës, Kukës, Lezhë and Shkodër.[4]

The northeastern mountain regions have substantial reserves of metallic mineral deposits, including chromium, copper, and iron-nickel. In the 1980s Albania was a world leader in chromium production, but output fell precipitously in the early 1990s during the political transition from communism.[5]

The term usually denotes to the northern half of the country inhabited by the Ghegs, who predominantly live in the mountainous north of the Shkumbin river.[citation needed]
