Thessaloniki, Greece 

The Macedonians were a Dorian tribe of the Greek Nation, according to the testimony of Herodotus (1, 56): "[The Dorian Nation]...dwelt in Pindos, where it was called Makedon; from there...it came to the Peloponnesos, where it took the name of Dorian".And elsewhere (VIII, 43): "these , except the people of Hermione, were of the Dorian and Makedon ethnos, and had most recently come from Erineos and Pindos and Dryopis". A Dorian tribe then, that expanded steadily to the east of Pindos and far beyond, conquering areas in which dwelt other tribes, both Greek and non-Greek.

1."The Macedonian people and their kings were of Greek stock, as their traditions and the scanty remains of their language combine to testify."
[John Bagnell Bury, "A History of Greece to the Death of Alexander the Great", 2nd ed. (1913)]
2. "That the Macedonians and their kings did in fact speak a dialect of Greek and bore Greek names may be regarded nowadays as certain."
[Malcom Errington, "A History of Macedonia"]
3. "What language did these Macedonians speak? The name itself is Greek in root and in ethnic termination. It probably means highlanders, and it is comparable to Greek tribal names..."
[N.G.L. Hammond, "The Macedonian State" (1989)]
4. "The toponyms of the Macedonian homeland are the most significant. Nearly all of them are Greek."
[N.G.L. Hammond, "The Macedonian State" (1989)]
5. "Ancient allegations that the Macedonians were non-Greek all had their origin in Athens at the time of the struggle with Philip II."
[Malcom Errington, "A History of Macedonia"]
6. "Nowadays historians generally agree that the Macedonians form part of the Greek Nation; hence they also shared in the common religious and cultural features of the Hellenic world."
[M.Oppermann, "Oxford Classical Dictionary", 3rd ed. (1996), p.905]
7. "We are Slavs who came to this area in the sixth century... we are not descendants of the ancient Macedonians."
[FYROM's President Mr. Kiro Gligorov, Foreign Information Service Daily Report, Eastern Europe, February 26, 1992, p. 35.]
8. "We are not related to the northern Greeks who produced leaders like Philip and Alexander the Great. We are a Slav people and our language is closely related to Bulgarian."
[FYROM's Ambassador to Canada, Gyordan Veselinov in an interview with the Ottawa Citizen, 24 February 1999]
9. "We do not claim to be descendants of Alexander the Great. [...] We are Slavs and we speak a Slav language."
[FYROM's Ambassador in Washington, Mrs. Ljubica Acevshka, 22 January 1999]

PSS:




I'm not asking you to believe on what we say (you wouldnt anyway). but I would ask you to try study abroad, and read history as it is written in famus Universities in other civilized countries like central and North Europe and USA. Find a book. just ONE book that students STUDY as a LESON in a famus University , and that book says that Macedonia has anything to do with your slavic civilization. If you find 1 book, ill never care anymore again about weather Macedonia is Fyrom or Greek.

btw propaganda is not making a group saying their opinion in public. in that case you are just the same. *open a dictionary*







PS: Macedonia and Greece are not different countried. Macedonia is a part of Greece. Just like Attica, Peloponisos, Thraki. IThese names were after these areas way before you guys came to form a country up there. Thatt's the main reason why our 2 countries are still in conflict. And if there anyone to blame that our and your politics. I dont give a damn weather people are good or bad. But i care when shit that politics do make us in conflict all the time. Talking about if things are or should be how they are etc etc.

It's not about being brainwashed.

Its simple.

ALL the history books of all the other countries in the world CAN'T be wrong just because the books of FYROM country are the ONLY ones that say that Fyrom people are Macedonian. WHo is brainwashed. 7 bilion of people around the world? or just the population in Fyrom country? You will never find a history book saying that Fyrom people are Macedonians nor in Harvard, nor in MIT, neither in illinois. Not a single serious universty in the world will have a book saying that.



FYROM people are SLAVIC. end of story. and if you actually search the internet you will find out WHERE slavic nations COME FROM. and how the are & were CALLED.

simple mathand history.

Macedonia (Geographically) is both within the borders of the country called GREECE, but there is also a part of Macedonia that is North of Greek Macedonia that is inhabited by SLAVS and other nationalities and NOT GREEKS....!!!
The trouble we Greeks have with our neighbors to the North is that the people to our North are "trying" to make our Greek History THEIR HISTORY..... But this is like stealing, because they have NOTHING TO DO with OUR GREEK HISTORY (which Macedonia is a part of).....
I hope this FACT is now clear in your minds, dear friends to our North ..... ONCE AND FOR ALL....!!!

If anyone visits your country, he will observe, that everything thats written on the ancient ruins found there, is in GREEK LANGUAGE.. But YOU are so brainwashed that you cannot even see whats right there, in front of your own eyes...
Are you describing the situation at your country Venus?
