The Autonomous Republic of Northern Epirus was a short-lived, self-governing entity founded in February 28, 1914, in the aftermath of the Balkan Wars, by the Greeks living in southern Albania. The area, known as "Northern Epirus" to Greeks and with a substantial Greek population, had been occupied by the Greek Army during the First Balkan War (1912-1913). The Protocol of Florence however, had assigned it to the newly established Albanian state.

- The Autonomous Republic of Northern Epirus was a short-lived, self-governing entity founded in February 28, 1914, in the aftermath of the Balkan Wars, by the Greeks living in southern Albania. The area, known as "Northern Epirus" to Greeks and with a substantial Greek population, had been occupied by the Greek Army during the First Balkan War (1912-1913). The Protocol of Florence however, had assigned it to the newly established Albanian state. This decision was rejected by the local Greeks, and as the Greek army withdrew to the new border, an autonomous government was set up at Argyrokastro, with tacit support from Greece. In May the autonomy was confirmed by the Great Powers with the Protocol of Corfu. The agreement ensured that the region would have its own administration, recognized the rights of the local population and provided self government under nominal Albanian sovereignty. However, it was never implemented because in August the Albanian government collapsed. In the event, the Greek Army re-occupied the area after the outbreak of World War I (October 1914). Northern Epirus was slated to be ceded to Greece following the war, but the withdrawal of Italian support and Greece's defeat in the Asia Minor Campaign resulted in its final cession to Albania in 1921.
