Ilias Vrioni was born in 1882 in Berat, in the Janina Vilayet of the Ottoman Empire, modern day Albania, to Mehmet Ali Pasha of the Vrioni family and Hysnije Vokopola of the Vokopola family, making Ilias maternally a relative to Ferid Vokopola.[2] His household had great chifliks in the surroundings of Berat, Fier, and the Myzeqe plain. His father was a high dignitary of the administration of the Ottoman Empire and collaborator of Abdyl Frashëri at the time of the Congress of Berlin,[3] his mother came from a local landowning family that had their chifliks in the surroundings of Vokopolë.[2]
