    Google Earth knows better ;)

    Using the Greek version of Google Earth, it appears that the lakes in Western/Central provinces of Macedonia appear either only in Macedonian or in both languages (Macedonian and Greek). Check this out:

    Lake Chimaditis appears only in Macedonian (Rudnik):



    Lake Vegoritis and Petron appear in both languages:



    And lake Small Prespa only in Macedonian:



    I guess Google Earth just knows better...

      How long do you think it will remain like this, now that all the Greeks who monitor this site have been alerted to this?

        Oh boohoo. Its not like they haven't seen it already. What makes you think they can do something about it?

        They can write and complain all they want.

          The Macedonian flag was put in Solun on Google Earth but it was removed,
          i am sure they can remove the real names of these lakes and change them to Grkchki names.

            They will write and call and complain, and it will be changed, just like the last time.

            It will be the Greek Government that will likely complain. The names by which we refer to the towns, villages and cities in the Aegean part of Macedonia, is something the Greeks want us to change as part of the negotiations over the name - they don't want us referring to 'Lerin', 'Voden', 'Solun', they want us calling them 'Florina', 'Edessa', 'Thessaloniki', etc.

            It is something they are definitely kicking up a stink about that's why sometimes I think it's better not to gloat and let things run their course for a while, so that some actual value can be gained by these small silent victories.

              I agree with Rogi totally, gloating will not assist us with our silent victories.

                Maybe they will do indeed change, but who cares. It's just a software. I just wanted to point out that without any intervention Google Earth just used the Macedonian names. BTW, I just rechecked now and they remain unchanged.
