Quote:
The last time there were large Slavic populations in Macedonia (northern Greece) was around the time of the Balkan wars. They were largelly expelled after the Balkan Wars, WWI and of those few remaining they were all expelled after WWII and the Greek civil war.
The reason it's called Slavophone Greek is that it is rather heavily influence by Slavic.

thats wrong
they didnt leave until after the civil war
theres still a large population of macedonians but they are assimilated
its true a lot did leave greece after the civil war but the ones who stayed were moved to diferent parts of the country to be assimilated faster also everthing that was writen in kirilica(graves, icons in churces etc) was destroyed and writen in greek Peoples names were changed and there werent allowed to speak macedonian at home.
