@ INSAN

I am sure you don't really understand the sad excuse for an answer which you cut&pasted ... but the three languages on the Rosetta stone are Hieroglyph-Egyptian, Ancient Greek and Demotic Greek.

The Ancient Greek is >80% identical to the Greek of today (more so than Old English is to Modern English) and the Demotic Greek is >90% identical to the Greek dialects spoken today.

So, which of the three languages on the Rosetta stone applies to the "FYROM-ians" ... would it be Hieroglyphics, perhaps?

Professor Boshevski: We believe that the Ancient Macedonian language is a precursor not only to most modern Balkan languages but also to all of today's Slavic languages. We believe, and time will prove this, that all these languages have descended from the Ancient Macedonian language. Let's say that the Ancient Macedonian language is a proto-Slav language.

On the other hand, international community and UN accept that independent peoples of the world have the right to define their languages no matter how similar or how distinct they r from other languages. Why Macedonian language bothers Greeks that much?

Where does it mention anything about a Slavic Macedonian language?

Here's some proof of the origins of the "Macedonian" Language

We are Macedonians but we are Slav Macedonians. That's who we are! We have no connection to Alexander the Greek and his Macedonia

From Kiro Gligorov President of FYROM at Toronto Star newspaper, March 15, 1992

We are Slavs who came to this area in the sixth century ... we are not descendants of the ancient Macedonians

From Kiro Gligorov President of FYROM at the Foreign Information Service Daily Report, Eastern Europe, February 26, 1992, p. 35

This is a joke. The Demotic script has already been deciphered. The British museum and the world academia isnt going to revise anything.

Perhaps under pressure of US administartion in order not to create tensions and damage on stability of NATO and Balkan region? It should be examined, under what circumstances he made that statements... It is obvious that he couldn't convince the Macedonians with just 2 short statements.

insan,
in the early 90s, the people of FYROM had little to no desire to be associated with ancient Macedonia. What sparked the nationalistic movement that led to such absurdities as the articles posted by pseudohistorians like Stefov was, partly, the stupidity of the Greek governments that were unwilling to compromise and forced the people of this tiny state to find comfort in manufactured history books that have now become their schoolbooks. International academia does not accept any of their history revisionism. Even the tiny minority of renowned historians that doubt the common ancestry of Macedonians and Greeks laugh at the claim that today's slav macedonians have any connection to them

The idea that Alexander the Great belongs to us was at the mind of some outsider groups only. These groups were insignificant in the first years of our independence. But the big problem is that the old Balkan nations have been learned to legitimate themselves through their history. In the Balkans to be recognized as a nation you need to have history of 2,000 to 3,000 years old. Since you (Greece) forced us to invent a history, we did invent it.

-Denko Maleski, Foreign Minister of FYROM from 1991 to 1993.

Some GCs must have genetic insecurities of their mothers' behaviour. What the bloody hell were they getting up to? We were in enclaves but you guys ....... well your mothers’ had all the freedoms.
Baseless accusations only hurt those who are insecure. Get my drift?
