hasjans has also been known for marrying shkodran models and being famous in london.Has District, besides the town of Krumë, comprises a number of villages and they are well known for their help in 1999 in the Kosovo War against the Serbian Army, for the unprecedented hospitality given to the thousands of refugees from Kosovo (there were about 78,000 refugees staying in the homes of Has inhabitants, or more than threefold the population of the Has District at that time). Hasi is located in the border of North-East-Albania and South-West-Kosovo. The ethnographic region of Has is much wider than the District of Has, because about half of this region is located in the territory of Kosovo, from the Albania-Kosovo border to the gates of the cities of Prizren and Đakovica.

Sadly, year-by-year the population of Has has been falling dramatically. European studies show that the decline in the Has population is falling due to the lack of economy so there is a huge number of people from this area migrating to countries like the United Kingdom and the United States but most are going to Tirana, the capital of Albania.

Vlahen is a village of the Has District of about 200 houses. It hosted many refugees from Kosovo. This beautiful village is surrounded by the Pashtrigu ( ), Gajrepi ( ), Maja e Kunores and Qafa e Kurrizit mountains.
