Skanderbeg was an Ottoman captain of Albanian origin who decided to go back to his native land and take the reins of a new Albanian rebellion. He, along with 300 other Albanians fighting at the battle of Nish, deserted the Ottoman army to head towards Krujë, which fell quickly through a subversion.
