To be fair, Ireland is really doing the "EU thing" largely on their own terms. And doing it well.

I would add that apart from the original Turks who migrated after 14th century to the whole region,from time to time as "Turks" were considered the muslim Greeks (Vallaades -in Aliakmon valley-Grevena)exchanged in 1923 as "Turks", the Pomaks(Muslim Bulgarians) and Muslim Macedonians of Karajova.
Do you really want to mix things up once again...about who was majority,and why there arent Macedonians in the map,and about Greeks...and and so on....and destroy the thread ??

Leave this alone,we all knows that in ottoman empire, there were only three ethniceties,TURKS BULGARS AND GREEKS,and all of them was a mather of religion,so thouse one which were members of Slvic church,declared them selfs Bulgars,Thouse which were folowers of Greek church declared them selfs Greeks and muslims declared themselfs as Turks,also wasnt Ataturk born in Župa near Plasnica?
See Župa home page,i'm not shure,i forgot but it is there some statue of him,i think it was place of birth!
Also about Albanians,it is Serbian enemy number one so they made a lot of studies abot them,they and Turks never use a word Albanian,they call them Arnauds,Turks use for Albania word ARNAUTLUK,for Serbia SERBISTAN and Croatia HROATISTAN,stan is word for nation and it is not mention in Albania,the Vord Arnaut in Turkish means THE ONE WHO NEVER COMMED BACK,also another thing somwhere in CAUCAS there was another country called Albania,any conection?Who knows,probebly,there are Tosks and Gegs,Tosks are Catholics and Orthodox ,gegs are muslims,also fizical thouse peoples are not the same,look their face,gegs are ugly like all caucasians,while tosks have more eu faces,also i personely belive that language is some sort of greek,that is why Arnavtika is used on pelopones,so Tosks are probebly real EPIRIANS(Epirus),in 1800 british general reported about non greek caracter of Ephirus,so probebly it was diferent but similar language,so modern Albanian is in fact some old helenic language,but Greeks dont take it like that,when i say helenic i ment old balcanic.Ние македонците не сме ни срби, ни бугари, туку просто Македонци. Ние ги симпатизираме и едните и другите, кој ќе не ослободи, нему ќе му речеме благодарам, но србите и бугарите нека не забораваат дека Македонија е само за Македонците.

As for the map,do you thing it includes any kind of homogeneous population??? It's just a geographical region and nothing more.
PS-Look at VMRO'S member Avatar-The borders of his Macedonia include Pieria...You must agree between yourselves ,you want Katerini or not?Ние македонците не сме ни срби, ни бугари, туку просто Македонци.

You can call it Republic of North Macedonia then,since it's near 37% of Geographical Macedonia.Ние македонците не сме ни срби, ни бугари, туку просто Македонци.

Your kidding ?
Ireland just had a referendum "rejecting" the E.U. The Irish people have spoken and a majority (although a very slim one rejected joinin the E.U), so what makes you say that ?

Originally posted by Soldier of Macedon View PostNo, the fact that it is a Republic is enough distinction and indication of difference. No state should ever have to negotiate their name against a mere group of regions. It is none of your business what our state is called.
Actually that's not correct. On the international stage Great Britain is recognized as the "United Kingdom". Initially they applied to be recognized as "Great Britain", but France raised objections that Great Britain will be confused with the French region of Bretagne which is directly across the UK, so the English changed their name.
As for Mustafa Kemal Ataturk being Macedonian, I'm not sure what benefit one would have in trying to relate to a person who is well known for approaching the scale of a mass murderer. During the reign of the Young Turks over 1 million Armenians were slaughtered, hundreds of thousands of Greeks met the same fate, and over 1.5 million Greeks were expelled from Asia Minor.Last edited by Demos; 12-30-2008, 01:05 PM.

The Turks would pit one Orthodox nation against the other in order to keep the populations under control.
