In Albania , fleur-de-lys (alb: Lulja e Zambakut) has been always associated with the Noble House of Topia. According to Karl Hopf, Andrea Thopia, as told by Gjon Muzaka (fl. 1510), had fallen in love with the daughter of Robert of Naples when her ship, en route to the Principality of the Morea to be wed with the "bailli", had stopped at Durazzo where they met. Andrea abducted and married her, and they had two sons, Karl and George. King Robert, enraged, under the pretext of reconciliation had the couple invited to Naples where he had them executed. During Karl's Reign the Fleur-de-lys became a symbol implying his royal blood. After Ottoman's Conquest of Albania the symbol was removed by the converted Toptani Family (muslim branch of Topia family).
