The Black Society for Salvation (Albanian: Shoqëria e zezë për shpëtim)[1] was a secret Albanian nationalist society established in 1909.[2] Its main task was to organize uprisings in southern Albania and Macedonia struggling for the unification of the four Ottoman vilayets with the substantial Albanian population (Kosovo Vilayet, Scutari Vilayet, Monastir Vilayet and Janina Vilayet) into one autonomous political unit with its own government and parliament.[3] The members of the society considered the armed rebellions as legitimate means for achieving their aims.[4]
