Vlorë

Vlorë is a coastal town and municipality in southern Albania. It is the second largest port city of Albania, after Durrës. It is the city where the Albanian Declaration of Independence was proclaimed on November 28, 1912. Vlorë was for a brief time the Capital of Albania.
Founded as an ancient Greek colony in the 6th century BC by the name of Aulon and continuously inhabited for about 26 centuries, Vlorë is home to the Port of Vlorë and University of Vlorë as the most important economical and cultural city of southwestern Albania.
The present municipality was formed at the 2015 local government reform by the merger of the former municipalities Novoselë, Orikum, Qendër Vlorë, Shushicë and Vlorë, that became municipal units. The seat of the municipality is the town Vlorë.〔(Law nr. 115/2014 )〕 The total population is 104,827 (2011 census), in a total area of 616.85 km2.〔(Interactive map administrative territorial reform )〕 The population of the former municipality at the 2011 census was 79,621.〔(2011 census results )〕 The new municipality extends from Vjosë river delta near Novoselë up to Llogara Pass including the town of Orikum.
==Etymology==
The modern name for the city is the Albanian form Vlorë or Vlora, both pronounced (:ˈvlɔɾə), while in the Gheg dialect it is known as Vlonë. Vlorë was created in antiquity as a Greek colony in the territory of Illyria. Its first name was Aulón ((ギリシア語:Αυλών), also the name in modern Katharevousa), meaning "channel" or "glen" and possibly a translation of another indigenous name.〔(google book reference ): Placenames of the World: Origins and Meanings of the Names for 6,600 Countries, Cities, Territories, Natural Features, and Historic Sites By Adrian Room Published by McFarland, 2005, ISBN 978-0-7864-2248-7, 433 pages.〕 The medieval and modern Greek name is Αυλώνας /av'lonas/, accusative Αυλώνα /av'lona/, and is the source of the Italian name Valona (also used in other languages) and of the obsolete English Avlona.〔"" in the ''Encyclopædia Britannica'', 1878.〕〔Encyclopædia Britannica, 11th edition (1911), "Avlona" article.〕 During the Ottoman era, the Turkish Avlonya was also used.〔Gawrych, G.
