THE PROPAGANDA Macedonians should not be recognised as Macedonians as they have been of Greek nationality since 2000 BC. Macedonians whose language belongs to the Slavic family, must not call themselves Macedonians as 4000 years ago they spoke Greek and today still speak nothing but Greek. Macedonia has no right to call itself by this name as Macedonia has always been a region and is today a region of Greece. The Serbs believe that Macedonians are misguided country cousins who belong in a Greater Serbia. (Yugoslavia) THE FACTS Macedonia was never a region of Greece. On the contrary, Greece was often subject to Macedonia. In 1913, Greece, Serbia and Bulgaria divided Macedonia into three parts. (BALKAN WARS) Ancient Macedonians were a distinct European people and proud of their nationality, their customs, their language and their name.

The same applies to their descendants today. Ancient Macedonians regarded Greeks as neighbours not as kinsmen. The Greeks treated the Macedonians as foreigners ("barbarians") whose native language was Macedonian not Greek. Macedonians claimed kinship with the Illyrians, Thracians and Phrygians, not with Greeks. Greeks said Macedonians were "barbarians" (a word which means non-Greek) Demosthenes, the great Athenian statesman and orator, spoke of the Macedonian King Phillip 2 of Macedon as: Quote, ."..

Not only not Greek, nor related to the Greeks, but not even a barbarian from anyplace that can be named with honours, but a pestilent knave from Macedonia, whence it was never yet possible to buy a decent slave. "[Third Phillip, 31 ] The Macedonian "barbarian defeated Greece at the Battle Of Chaeronea in August 338 BC. The date is known as the end of Greek history or as The Macedonian Era. Alexander The Great spoke Macedonian and was proud of his ethnicity. However the Macedonian language then was not used as a literacy idiom. The first native written language in Macedonia is the idiom called Macedonian or Old Church Slavonic (Cyrillic Alphabet) and is the basis of all Cyrillic alphabets today. Alexander won his empire with 35, 000 Macedonians and only 7, 600 Greeks and called it the Macedonian Empire not the Greek Empire.

Todays republic was created by Josip Broz Tito the anti-fascist leader of Yugoslavia during the 2 nd World War who recognised Macedonians as a distinct nationality with their own language and customs. The claims by Bulgaria that Macedonians are of Bulgarian ethnicity are entirely false due to the facts that the Tatars a people from the east who invaded the balkans during Byzantine times mixed with the Gypsies and Turks in the Balkans and created a new race of people which go by the name of Bulgarians. The Tatars dropped their native name and language in favor for the Macedonian language with its Cyrillic alphabet and customs and created the Bulgarian nation which is east of Macedonia and today has in its boundaries the Pirin region of Macedonia. By the Treaty of Bucharest, in August 1913 Macedonia was divided among Greece, Serbia (Yugoslavia) & Bulgaria. Greece gained Aegean Macedonia and renamed it Northern Greece or Greek Macedonia. Bulgaria gained Pirin Macedonia and abolished the Macedonian name.

Serbia gained Vardar Macedonia and renamed it Southern Serbia and it was included in the Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats & Slovenes. Later renamed Yugoslavia. Macedonian freedom fighters in 1944 created its Macedonian Republic (named Macedonia from then on, not Southern Serbia) but it was not entirely independent. Macedonia became a sovereign state in 1991 by referendum.

Majority of voters chose independence. Therefore, The claims put forward by Greece that the Ancient Macedonians and present are Greeks, that their native language was Greek, and that Macedonia was a region of Greece are all false. Historical truth is that Greece inhabited by Greeks and Macedonia by Macedonians. The presence of Greek settlements along the coasts which King Phillip 2 destroyed anyway did not change Macedonia's ethnic character and like wise, a much longer and stronger Greek presence in Egypt did not change that African land into a region of Greece.
