Greeks is nationality. Macedonian is not nationality is a geographic region that you live only in a northern part of it and only from the 7th century and on!

Better you have to deside about your nationality, because you changed 3 times in one century! (Bulgarian, Serbian and now "macedonian")

The name doesnt belong to you, but to the history.

You are slavic people, you dont have any connection to have the only right to use this word! Is a word that was existing before you.

@JANDAR69 you have some validity in your claims however your touching on a very controversial issue before 1930 there were over 16 dialects of Hellenic one of the Major Languages were Macedonian all of the Northern Part of Greece Spoke Macedonian very similar to Serbian or Bulgarian,we had Cyriott, Pontian, Kytherian etc the purest form of Greek is the Cypriot Greek Macedonian has had a lot of evolution

We are a Nice humble people us Macedonians we are still objects of racism, all we ask of the word and Southern Greeks and Slaves to admit for there wrongs and recognise us as a people and have reconciliation like the poor Aboriginals in Australia we are the indigenous people of northern Greece, were not asking for money of wealth Just leave us alone

[orthodox33]

We are not Slavs we are the Mother of the Slavs where do you think they Got there Alphabet from? St Ceril and methodia the Two Macedonians Saints we are also the Brothers of the Modern Greeks, the Greek Macedonians consider ourselves to be Greek only by virtue we will not forget our Macedonian Heritage Like the Cypriots we have our distinct culture Florina resisted both the Slavs and the Greeks to preserve Macedonian Culture all we ask is that you respect us and to stop the racism

[orthodox33]

@konig82 The Ancient Greeks were named after City States, Macedonia was the Largest of these over 3000 years of evolution led to the Macedonian Culture emerging by the fith century the whole of norther Greece spoke the Macedonian dialect Macedonia Split into 4 parts after the Bucharest Treaty 1913 Today only two Parts Remain Greek Macedonia and Fyrom Both of these groups have been perecuted the Greek Side were Tortured by Pontian Greeks from Turkey and Fyrom by the Communist
