WHAT DOES ISKANDER BEY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Skanderbeg

George Kastrioti Skanderbeg, commonly known as Skanderbeg, was a 15th-century Albanian nobleman. Skanderbeg was born in 1405 to the noble Kastrioti family, in a village in Dibra. Sultan Murad II took him hostage in 1423 and he served the Ottoman Empire during the next twenty years. He was appointed as the governor of the Sanjak of Dibra by the Ottomans in 1440. In 1443, he deserted the Ottomans during the Battle of Niš and became the ruler of Krujë, Svetigrad and Modrič. In 1444, he initiated and organized the League of Lezhë, which proclaimed him Chief of the League of the Albanian people, and defended the region of Albania against the Ottoman Empire for 25 years. Skanderbeg's rebellion was not a general uprising of Albanians, and he did not enjoy support in the largest Albanian cities, whether in the Ottoman-controlled south or Venetian-controlled north. His followers, along with Albanians, included Slavs, Vlachs and Greeks. In 1451 he recognized de jure the suzerainty of Kingdom of Naples through the Treaty of Gaeta, to ensure a protective alliance, although he remained a de facto independent ruler.
