They are Bulgarians from Yugoslavia who wanted their own hamlet, like Montenegrins who are Serbs but got their own little plot of land.

Strategic means to gain territory. Create a small heterogenous republic, convince the people they are something else, use their new identity to unite them with you. Example 1: Austria
Example 2: Fyrom
Example 3: Belarus

Anything that didnt include Greek culturetheft

What the fuck difference is that going to make? They're slavs, the name should not have "Macedonia" in it. And who is actually going to say "Northern Macedonia" rathe rhan just 'Macedonia?" As usual, the commie cucked.

we went full retard during the second balkan war or also known as the first political iteration of jackass, as a consequence serbs took a part where bulgarians lived and since they were unable to convince them they are actually serbs, they planted some wewuzism in their heads that they are some precious little snowflakes as not to have an active separatist movement, after 70 years of that, the macedonians are deeply confused people that I feel great pity towards

Why are they doing that if they are not even Greek?
Why are they so insistent on Macedonia, what connection do they claim to it?

to be honest macedonians were cot considered real greeks by their contemporaries, although sharing some cultural practices, they were at best viewed as the violent hillbilies of the helenic world, if alexander never existed the reign of his father would have staid in greek history as a foreign occupation by a tyrant and nothing more, however as his son rofflestompped the entire known world at the time, suddenly macedonians became quintessentially greek, it's all a bit hypocritical, not that modern macedonians have any more rights on the whole ancient bullshit dickwavery but you guys are quite petty for a nation having so much to be proud of

The thing is, this how it would pretty much go down regardless what government was in power. The pressure to include FYROM in NATO is what made them cave in.
