Albania is proud of being known as the birth place of Mother Theresa – also known as Saint Teresa of Calcutta. Anyone who goes to an Albanian soccer game will see patriotic fans holding up their open hands with thumbs crossed to symbolize the double-headed eagle seen on the Albanian national flag. The double eagles represent Albania’s multi-faith nation. The textile pattern in the background is typical of what can be seen on traditional handmade Albanian vests.
