TM, one cannot say that Macedonia officially existed under Jugoslavian rule and at the same time say it never existed under Ottoman, Eastern Roman and Roman rule.
In 1913 Macedonia was officially divided. Her conquerors officially removed reference to her name for the very first time in history. Tito rightfully re-instated the name in 1944.
I don't see what the bone of contention is outside of these simple facts.
