Two horse breeds originated in Albania, the mountain horses and horses of the plains (Myzequea). However, a lack of proper breeding programs has allowed interbreeding between them to blur the lines of distinction.
Albanian horse bloodlines probably come from a combination of Tarpan, Turkmenian, and Mongolian animals, which later saw an infusion of Arabian blood during the Ottoman Empire.
