These Greeks most be a really insecure lot if they are bothered by what another country wants to call itself.
In the absence of Academia, people are free to say and do as they please, but there are limits. Without Academic Reference Points,common sense constraints and parameter's, people are free to:
[...]
That's not how academe
works.
Real scholars argue all the time.
And the whole notion of Freedom of Thought and the Freedom of Speech seems to have evaded you.
How ungreek.
And who wants to be associated with Alexander of Macedon anyway?
It's not as if he's one of the good guys.
He conquered a decrepit decadent shell of an empire and then drank himself to death out of boredom.
What a guy!
Hey Dutch dude, Academia does not revise or chop and change established recorded ancient European history at the behest of flawed theories Ideas and conjectures.
Academia keeps within the boundaries of the mainstream norms. History get's Re-written only when there is Consensus
amongst the International Academic Fraternity, the hard facts and material evidence must be Overwhelmingly sufficient in order for these world scholar's to act.
History shall not be Re-written to appease Slavdoms Rogue Scholar's, Pseudo-Historians and Specialist Propagandist's.
Alexander the Great and the Ancient Macedonians belong to the Greek Hellenic Collective of Peoples.
Today's Greek Hellenic peoples are the Sole and Legal modern Representative of that Hellenic Legacy. No Other modern people on this Planet are Closer to the ancient Macedonians than today's modern Greeks.
Don't be Ignorant of our Common European history Dutch dude!
Slavic and Turkic Scholar's can come up with as many theories Ideas and Conjectures as they like......it means Nothing to World Academia [The World Body of Knowledge].
