>we wuz greek Is this the most delusional larp in the world?
>>226060826they don't even claim to be Greekthey're the people who settled in the province of Macedonia in the late 6th century, that's all
>>226060826They don't claim to be Greek, they claim the ancient Macedons and Alexander were totally not Greek and instead were literal Ivanovskys from the Pripyat swamps.
>>226060826The country should realistically be called Vardaska
>>226060926*Vardarska Makedonijayou can't just say Vardarska, that just not a natural thing to say
>>>226060826>Is this the most delusional larp in the world?They have intense competition from other Balkaners and the roachesYesterday I stumbled upon an Albanian account on Instagram with hundreds of posts and most of them were about a different Greek word in each thread explaining the etymology and how said word is of Albanian origin lelCommunism seems to have buck broken Balkaners way too much and it's showing
>>226061057Like, this albo account had posts showing ancient Greek coins with obviously Greek written on them and still somehow claiming they have anything to do with Albania XDIt's not even funny anymore
>>226060826Aren't they slavs larping as Greccos?
>>226061133they're turkified Slavs
>>226060826Theya re paleo balkan + slavic, just like serbs
in 586 the Avars led a mass of Slavs in a siege of Thessaloniki, the salvation of which was attributed to St. Demetrios, the patron saint of Byzantium's second city. And even tho Emperor Maurice was to push the frontier beyond the Danube once again, the Slavs never left the hinterlands of the city.
>>226060826No, they're a very reasonable people and the name is 100% justified. They live in the region of Macedonia and carry the name of the region. Their ancestors no doubt include Slavs, paleo-Balkanians (including ancient Macedonians) and Roman era East Mediterranean populations. Furthermore, the connection to the Hellenic world was emphasized by the Greeks themselves during the 19th century, in an attempt to Hellenize them, and now they're playing dumb and upset about it. If Macedonians want to symbolically claim Alexander, even that is not any sillier than Arab Egyptians claiming Ramesses, Romance French claiming Vercingetorix or Anglo Americans naming military helicopters after Native Americans. Only limit is not claming that Alexander was Slavic and I literally never heard them do that unless it's 200 years ago, an the first person to claim Alexander was Slavic was a 16th century Croat, anyway.
>>226062295literal Turcomans too, there are still pockets of Turks and Yoruk in Macedonia
Iq 90 Yugo-communist animals created 3 meme identities out of nowhere: Macedonians, Muslims and Montenegrins. Why? Because with an honest historical agreement between Croats and Serbs, the meaning of the existence of Yugoslavia disappears, and therefore the communists in power. Realistically, Croatia should have received half of Bosnia, Serbia all the rest. Perhaps Slovenia would be in a confederation with Croatia or completely independent. And then the war of the 90s would not have happened. But the most important thing for the communists was that they be in power.
>>226062295meds nazi dog
>>226060826Alexandrovski came from the Bulgar steppes chud
>>226062957Learn your own history.
>>226063555If I had your history and just a bit of conscience I would hang myself in the center of Zagreb
>>226063700Too big of a step for you to know anything about Croatian history when you still don't know your own. Step by step.
>>226063700You were Turkish slaves for 500 years; you’re in no position to mock anyone. Calling Croats Nazis is an iq 90 move.
>>226060826
>>226063700>If I had your history and just a bit of conscienceWhat is that supposed to mean?
>>226064177Croats are Nazis tho, everyone knows that. You know, in Slovenia, when you go down towards Dolenjska, people start becoming Catholic Nazis too. Idk what it is about your part of the world that fosters this!
>>226060826It's silly but Greece chimping out over it is way more cringe
>>226064530Janez, vrijeme je za lijekove.
>>226061152so like normal greeks.
>>226064540I don't see a problem; it's normal to react if someone tries to steal a part of your history. 'Macedonians' are just ethnic Bulgarians, and nothing more than that.
>>226060826who gives a fuck
>>226064530>DolenjskaThat's because you have gypsies and immigrants from the deep balkans there who are completely delusional and uneducated about history. We have them in Dalmatia too though.Pic rel with a bajillion monuments possessing the 5 pointed star is the reality in Croatia bordering Slovenia
>>226064791gypsies are not religious. Just Slovenes who speak in that akanye accent of Dolenjska are conservative religious nuts. Now, the people of Styria, they're religious nuts too, but they're also brutish. The people of Gorenjska however, are penny-pinching conservatives without being really religious, they're an Alpine people.
>>226064854What about Koroška and Primorska
>>226065000Koroška is poor people impacted by the mining operations in the regionPrimorska is commiesPrekmurje is people who often know Hungarian and suspiciously remind you of gyppos
>>226060826Why are /int/bros so mean to each other?
>>226065034>Koroška is poor people impacted by the mining operations in the regionI'd expect them to be better off from being near Austria.
>>226065263a lot of them also work in hotels across the border, that's true, but Koroška is working class coded. They also have a monotonous Teutonic accent that is more Styrian that it is Carniolan, tho that's just cause they're those Carinthians who are nearest to Maribor
>>226060826they're part Illyrian, part Greek and part Slavic. anything else is cope
>>226064177croats are nazis tho which I find funny given Hitler's opinion on you
>>226060826Yes because country lines get mushy over time.Same with both us and French can claim Charles the Great to be the founding person of our nations
>>226065897Croats were the most numerous nation in Yugo partisans per capita, and Tito and the leading communists were Croats. Hitler had a positive opinion of the Croats, he considered them loyal friends and excellent soldiers.
>>226065921this is the same reason why romulus is considered an american today
>>226061057Pirro>raised by Illyrians, mostly IllyrianAleksander>closest genetic proximity to ancient macedonians are albaniansMarko Boçari>literally an Albanian who wrote in Albanian
>>226060826There was no such thing as "Greece". They were distinct city states until conquered by the Romans and never recovered. The various post-Alexander kingdoms were also their own things and quickly assimilated with their respective conquered peoples. Current Greece is a modern invention.
>>226060926Why? It's literally in the historical region of macedonia. Minus the coast
>>226069666lel really niggathere's a reason why Virgina is in Greece/Greek Macedonia and not in monkeydonia
>>226067292modern Albanian are part Oghuz tho, you have East Asian ancestry
>>226069687Vergina*Monkeydonians are literally just Bulgarians who were brainwashed by Tito into believing they're some special ethnicity different from Bulgaria so they wouldn't want to join Bulgaria in the future or whatever and of course 1/4 of its population is analbanian and they also have a bunch of turks and gypsies obviously
