Then why did Macedonians create an empire that spanned 3 contintents and made the conquered speak Greek? Why did they have exclusively Greek names like Phillip, Alexander, Cleopatra, Ptolemy? Why now names ending in "ev", "ov" or "ski". Why did they create the Hellenic League of 338BC? Why did they worship Greek gods? Why did Alexander consider himself a descendant of Achilles (and he was on his mother's side)?

LIES!!!! LIES!!!! They were not excluded from the Olympic games - Phillip II even won a horse race there.

Macedonians MADE Greece the centre of Greek civilisation. Without Macedonia, Greece would be conquered and smashed.

WHY IS MOUNT OLYMPUS - HOME OF THE GREEK GODS IN MACEDONIA? Are Greeks totally stupid to have their gods reside in a so called foreign place?

Today's Macedonians are the very descendants of the Ancient Macedonians, making a distinct ethnic group - they are one of the few White people remaining in the Balkans - due to the mixing of Albanians with Turks, and Greeks with Ethiopians.

RUBBISH!!! Greeks are the least racial miscegenationists in the Balkans. Slavs are the biggest. FYROM is a nation of Turk-Slavs that want to be something they're not. Deal with the cards you've been dealt. As for white, yeah right, you Turk-Slavs are exactly that. Go have a look at the war criminals in The Hauge first.


Greeks won't give their culture, history and eponyms away so easily as you may think.
