My Father immigrated to America, from Gevgelija, the town of his birth, in 1951, after several years in Greek, & Italian Refugee Camps.
I know little of his life before that, and even less about the culture, music, and history (Don't spreckin, or read, any of zee lingos either, sad to say.) of the region.
This video & others I'm slowly finding, here, are a joy to watch, & help me in my ongoing effort to discover my roots.
And u have never been to macedonia? That's a shame.. it's a beautiful country .. a lot of this to see , a lot of amazing places to visit ... you should find time to visit . it's a uniqe place..
Dad chose never to teach his kids the language, or even talked much about life there, or the culture ( and spent the last 18 years of his life in mental hospitals ) as I guess he figured it would have no practical value for us in our lives as Americans, especially since we more than likely would never visit the old country.
Vasilis you are welcomed to visit our beautiuful Macedonia and you will change your opinion and be sure that we exist only as macedonians and macedonia is real
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Aron i am from Macedonia and i know its history and beauty ;). I agree we exist as Macedonians and Macedonia is real... Cant say the same for FYROM and the FYROMskies
vasilisl can you please leave the politics away from here. This is about Macedonia and we are happy about his particular piece.There is nothing to do about politics so stop commenting about it. There is a place and time to be discussing politics and this is not one of them.
you certainly are not a macedonian too VASILIS or whatever. You by nationality are greek and stop bulshiting. Go get a life, jerk off or whatever..
If you claim to be a macedonian, come to Skopje the capital of THE REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA, sign a statement and we will issue a national MACEDONIAN passport.
Its always the same with you gayladians, you just keep provoking everyone.
There are people who have been elected to resolve this issue, you voted for them and i did so let them do their job.
Kinj0op u aint no Macedonian cause ur language, ur name, ur block head and ur history have no connections with the eternal Northern Greeks, the "MACEDONIANS". THESSALONIKI is the capital of the true & historic Macedonia, the Hellenic province.Wether u like it or not, ur illusions wont last forever. Enjoy it as much as it lasts
if u want to call ur Dardanian/PAIONIAN lands Macedonia, well go ahead. Your name will change anyway ;)
we have a double name solution already in place and it aint working. One name for all uses. a name that includes a prefix to differenciate ur 3rd world slavoalbano bordelo from MACEDONIA of northern Greece.
in the time of the revolution SOLUN "thessaloniki"(as u call it) was realy a capital of Macedonia but unfortunatly in the balkans war Macedonia is divided between their neighbours . So this part of Macedonia where I'm living and its peple has the legacy of the name and the history of Macedonia which has nothing in connection with the gay history of HELL-ASS and its gipsy people from ethiopia or I don't know some other planet.

PrincoPirat sorry to break ur daydreaming, but the vast majority of what u call ur side of "Macedonia", was never really Macedonia. Neither in acniet, roman, byzantine or Ottoman. Ur only legacy os ur Bulgarian past u deny.
Macedonian history has nothing to do with a bunch of 3rd world Bulgarian speaking inferiority complexed clowns
whats wrong with you???? my grandfather is vlach and he is no greek you stupid gayreek....YOU THINK THERE IS NOT OFFENCE FROM YOUR NATION!!!! THERE IS MORE THAT YOU THINK I AM 1/4 GREEK FROM MY MOTHER SIDE AND I AM NOT PROUD OF IT!!!STUPID MAN LIKE YOU DON'T HELP GREEK NATION IT MAKES THEM MALAKAS...IF YOU KNOW TO HEAR SOME MACEDONIAN WORDS IN SO GREAT GREEK LANGUAGE-WRITE ME OK!
What is wrong with you vasilisl??? In Macedonia were and are living Macedonians... Macedonians organized this revolution, Macedonians write the manifest in macedonian language (there is not one single conection with bulgarian) .....its very simple to understand
ciciban986 no "Macedonians" (in the ethnic sence) organised a revolution. The Bulgarians of Macedonia did. U seem to be smart, go and check what the VRMO declaration says about themselves. All VRMO members considered themselves Bulgarians. Wether u like it or not.. ;)
- None from the BBC mentioned that this uprising was staged by the Bulgarians and the Bulgarians were inviting all the nationalities in the area, even the peasant Turkish population, to revolt against the Sultan
- None from the BBC pointed out that the Manifesto of Krushevo was written in Bulgarian
- None from the BBC revealed that during the revolt, with Krushevo as its epicenter, the Turks who had been bribed by the Bulgarians exterminated the Greek population and the Greek Vlachs
What uprising in Crusevo? The one where the Turkish army in 1903 burned down the Greeks parts city and left the Bulgarian sections intact? How cme all the dead were Greeks or had Greek names? Cause this incident finally woke up sleepy Greece to participate in the Macedonian struggle and liberate it.. Where were u clowns then? Cause obviously, no "makedonskies" existed at the time to get their house burned down in Crusevo..
No wonder why u love ur Turks so much u idiot fakes

WHAT?? Made "Macedonia" the first republic in the Balcans? What a load of SHIT! The rebublic of Crusevo had nothing to do with "Macedonia" and the modern pseudo"Macedonians" of FYROM.. in1903 the population was mainly Greek and quite a few Bulgarians.. A place where still today the architecture by the old Greek schools and houses still remain and make a difference..
