One of the most important fact about this work is that this book was written in the old Ottoman language in which Albanians were called Arvanitas not Arnavut (Albanian).

According to the data registered in the years between 1431-1432 (uncompleted), Albanian lands included theseprovinces: 1) Vilayet-i Aryurikasri, 2. Nahiyet-i Sopot, 3. Vilayet-i Klisura, 4. Vilayet-i Kanina, 5. Vilayet-i Belgrad, 6. Vilayet-i Tomorince, 7. Vilayet-i Iskarapar, 8. Vilayet-i Pavlo Kurtik, 9. Vilayet-i Cartolos, 10. Vilayet-i Akcahisar. The present article aims to present the registriesof geographical names according to Suret-i Defter-i Sancak-i Arvanid and compare them withtoday's Province of Berat.
