    In FYROM they would simply think you're a nationalist and you use the old flag of FYROM.

    In Thessaloniki, noone will notice. You'd simply be using the symbol of the province Thessaloniki is the capital of: Macedonia.

      Really? It's the exact same flag, color and proportion and everything?

        Yes. It is. It an ancient Macedonian symbol: the Sun of Vergina. Vergina is a city in Macedonia (not FYROM).

          I'm aware of the symbol and its heritage, I just didn't know they used the same colors on the provincial flag.

          I can concede that making the flag the exact same as the Greek provincial flag was probably not the best idea, and it seems appropriate that they changed it.

            Personally, I think we should just call the whole lot of them Byzantines.

              Too many syllables. What about "Turks"?
              Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

                As long as it's not a bad word like "Swedes".

                              I have no problem with Finns.

                              Norwegians, OTOH!
