Alexander unified all greek cities-states under his rule (yes, through force, that how unifications are done 95% of the time) and was proclaimed "King of the Hellenes", not "King of the Macedonians"....Co-Founder, Apolyton Civilization Site

Good thing the Macedonians didn't take the Greek route and embargo him.Comment

True. Although the petty-minded Cypriots did themselves no favours by rejecting that peace deal.Originally posted by MarkG

Paiktis I get a feeling that you do not approve of unification between Macedonia and Bulgaria even though you agree that most Macedonians are actually Bulgarians. You should not fear such a union. We are not going to come after Greece for what it did in the Balkan warsOriginally posted by Bereta_Eder
1. eh? what about the bulgarian komitazides as early as the 19th century advocating unification of the geographic region of macedonia with bulgaria? or the other fraction of theirs advocating first autonomy and then unification with bulgaria? (btw we are wrong when we call them slavs, they're basically mostly bulgarian)
and if tha's not recent enough for you what about the articles in their contritution in 1990's calling for "liberation of macedonia"?
they changed this after the embargo.
or do you think that just because they don't pose a military threat we should just let them be and just keep going to the beach?
nein. no skpjie with name of macedonia. and the US is not bordering Skpjie nor does it have veto in EU memberhsip or nato (well the latter it has) and it has committed to agree to whatever both countries agree even though of course the US plays their little games in the balkans too
a country's name is its soul and skpjie will not be permitted to have a macedonian soul not just because they dont have it anyway but because if they are let to keep faking it they can cause problems in the long run. of course someone far away can say donkeyheaded greeks and that's ok, he's not the one living here and isn't expected to know anything about it.
We are going to be in the EU soon and then there will be no borders between Bulgaria and Greece and it won't matter if Solun is in Bulgaria or Greece.

Bulgarians are slavs. The ancient Bulgars were a Turkik tribe but they were assimilated by the local Slavic population. They only contributed culturaly.Originally posted by Bereta_Eder

My brother was in Sofia about a month ago. He was thrilled how cheap everything is, and said Bulgarian women are awsome. He bought me your edition of Playboy to prove it, I told him why didn't you bring a live one you bastard
EDIT: he also bought me a wooden "picture" of an orthodox saint which I now keep above my bed to protect me

Bulgarian women
It is still relatively cheap here. Although gas in Serbia (I traveled through Serbia a week ago) is virtualy free It is probably cheaper than in the US. That is funny because most Bulgarians living close to the Serbian border used to make a living selling Bulgarian gas in Serbia for years.

Vet, your bro was realistic. I wouldn't bring a jet fighter to a kid, I'd bring the kid the toy version of it first. You have to learn to walk before you can fly.In da butt.

Serbia is still very socialist in many things. Government is probably subsidising the gas.Comment

your Finns are racists and expansionists
LOL look who´s talking!I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

Oh yeah, and a lot of help you were in the War of 1812. We had to defeat the Americans all by ourselves.
