Since this quiz seems to be based on de facto control there are a few more I would suggest:

French forces in WWI established the Autonomous Province of Korçë. (1916-1920)

Wallachia and Moldavia existed independently until 1859, though it is questionable if Moldavia was Balkan.

As said above Northern Epirus existed briefly during 1914.

The Soviet Union also debatably held territory on the peninsula during WWII during the liberation of Romania and Bulgaria.
