MACEDONIA IS GREEK
"FYROM" (Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia) and not REPUBLIK of MACEDONIA (look the UN Member list)

This is my feeble attempt to sum up the arguments against FYROM attempting to lay claim to Greek heritage: * "Macedonia" is a Greek word. It is the name of a nation that existed 2500 years ago. Its people spoke Greek. Its people spread Greek culture throughout the world. When FYROMians claim that they are the one and only Macedonians, it is perhaps the biggest lie they can tell. Perhaps they have a right to call themselves Macedonians (due to geographical location), but they are not the Macedonians. This does a great disservice to Greek Macedonians, who have done a much better job of connecting with their ancestors. * The "real" Macedonian language was a dialect of Greek. All historical evidence from the time of the ancient Macedonian kingdom indicates that the written language of the time was Greek. FYROM's language is not "Macedonian". It is a Bulgarian dialect which post-dates Alexander by over 1000 years. There is little, if any, connection to the ancient Macedonian language. * The most important regions and cities of the ancient kindom of Macedonia are in Greece and they had (and still have) Greek names. There cannot be a "Republic of Macedonia" without the heart and soul of Macedonia.

Looking at these points alone, how can anyone agree that FYROMians should call themselves the one and only "Macedonians"? I personally do not think they are Macedonians at all, since they have so little in common with their supposed ancestors. They hate Greeks, they don't speak Greek, and they emphatically minimize the connection between ancient Macedonians and their Greek brethren. For these reasons alone they do not deserve to call themselves Macedonians.

However, if FYROMians were to finally admit that their language is Bulgarian (or anything but "Macedonian") and call their country Vardar-Macedonia (or Vardacedonia), then this might be an acceptable compromise. But FYROM cannot ever use simply "Macedonia". A nation founded on a lie will not survive.
