[quote:Nick the Greek 18692266:MV8xMDI4NTA1XzMyMjc3NDk2Xzk1NTBFMzUx] Macedonians can only ever be Greeks on the basis, the name itself was spawned from Greek speakers. Greek speaking Hellenic peoples were the initiators, the creators of the Macedonian name, and they took that name everywhere they went. [b]Rule of Thumb[/b]: You know when a name is yours when you take it with you. The best demonstration of Greek ownership over the Macedonian name can be traced back to the Byzantine-Greeks who took the Macedonian name away from it's original location and placed it in Thrace. They used the Macedonian name to name a military district they set-up to Theme-Macedonia in order to protect Macedonian population from Slavic incursions, excruciations and attacks. [b]I say again[/b]: You know when a name is yours when you take it with you...like the Europeans did, when they took their old-European names to the New-World...the Americas! French names are distinct from English names and Spanish names are distinct from Germanic names and Dutch names cannot be confused with any other names because the distinction is universal...only fools attempt to take the name of another peoples and then proceed to apply that name to themselves in an ethnic-racial, cultural and linguistic setting in the hope and expectaion that nobody would notice. Greek names and Greek place names are unique only to Greeks, the distinction is universal...only fools would attempt to take a Greek-Hellenic name to describe themselves, their new Slavic country, nationality, language and ethnicity in the hope and expectation that nobody would notice...or if they did notice they would be unsympathetic to the Greeks and allow the usurper to take it. The Macedonian name is a unique Greek-Hellenic regional-tribal name...only Greeks have right to use it in the correct and proper fashion! [/quote]
