Livadhe (Greek: Λιβαδειά)[1] is a village and a former commune in Vlorë County, southern Albania. At the 2015 local government reform it became a subdivision of the municipality Finiq.[2] The population at the 2011 census was 1,165.[3] The municipal unit consists of the villages Livadhja; Kulluricë; Llazat; Kalcat; Kodër; Lefter Talo; Vagalat; Gravë; Qesarat; Komat; Karroq; Grazhdan; and Zminec (all inhabited solely by Greeks), while Sopik is inhabited by an Orthodox Albanian population and Pandalejmon by Muslim Cham Albanians.[1] A demographic study by Leonidas Kallivretakis in 1993, found that the population of the commune consisted of approximately 85% ethnic Greek Christians, 10% Albanian Christians, and 5% Cham Albanian Muslims.[1]
