During antiquity, Macedonia was a Greek-Kingdom inhabited by Northern-Greeks and ruled over by a succession of Greek monarchs which included King Philip of Macedon who's son Alexander the Great spread Hellenism, the Greek-Hellenic language, knowledge and culture thousands of miles eastwards into the orient and beyond. In those days Macedonia was a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, multi-lingual place where Illyrians, Thracians, Celts and Dacians
intermingled under Greco-Macedonian rule. The Greek language and Hellenic culture dominated there, above and beyond the languages and cultures of others...The Greekness of the Macedonians was recognized acknowledged and enshrined in peace treaties between barbarians and Macedonians.

Through-out history, whether during classical-antiquity, from ancient-Greece to the rise of Rome, and from the decline of the Roman Empire to late-antiquity and from the migration-period to the middle-ages right-up to Byzantium, Macedonians were signaturies to many a treaty. The Greekness of the Macedonians was never in question, contested or dispute until FYRoM entered onto the world-stage in the modern-age during November 1991.

From since FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs proclaimed themselves Macedonians in the ethnic and racial sense and in the cultural-linguistic sense...Greeks have been locked in dispute over the Greekness of Macedonians through-out history, from ancient-times to the present.

FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs took something good like the classics and Rubbished them, converted them into something Vulgar...where they scripted themselves a history and a heritage so crude and so crass one cringed at the sight of a South-Slav proclaiming himself a descendant of Alexander the Great, a lifelong Greek-speaker who spread Hellenism to the far reaches of the ancient-world. That FYRoM's ex-Yugoslavs had the gall, the front and the bottle to go live with such unsophisticated revisionism and pseudo-history speak volumes about their intelect and how easy it was for some to manipulate them.
