READ IT... PLEASE.. COMMENT IT......
The fact is that we Greeks when we went to school we didn’t always give the best value to theoretical courses like history. Moreover, the way we used to study the lessons like parots didn’t give us the right to dwell a little more on what read. This system, namely papagalia (from parrot in Greek), was condemned by many people, but had never changed.
So when asking new kids what we celebrate on 25 March, they respond very confident that marks the anniversary of big NO in 1940 etc. In recent years our history is learnt from the television with the reporting of the documenters analyses, and the "windows". One of them we have heard is that somewhere in the north, there is an area that coincidentally has the same name as a historic-geographical district and requires that name and put it as authoritative and internationally.
In our history, with the papagalia system of learning we take the information that in the north of our country is the region of Macedonia with its districts and ... its Cokapital Thessaloniki. Really ... Do you know other countries to have two kapitals? Now we learn that this big district of ours is extending towards ... Up, which surpassed our borders and "transformed" to a new state (?), which it wants to be also said, as ... Macedonia.
Then, through TV, we have learned that Tito was calling it in this way since 1964, but luckily it would not have to be Separated from the others in the Former Yugoslavia but ... We didn’t mind. We had other things to deal with.
Before 17 years (unfortunately, I was not there) we got out on the streets because we realised that we had neighbours "Macedonians", people who had just been waking up from the lethargy of the socialist period of sustainable and discovered that they were descendants of Alexander the Great. A label that they consider will give them momentum and vision in their history and they will raise ethical, remedying them from the multiple injuries which were left them the previous regime.
Today we have to look at ... Dilemma of whether to tell them Macedonians Upper Lower Macedonians There and Here... under of a big international and American pressure. How have we come this far? What mistakes have led us to this impasse? Why should always brings you to prove that we are not elephants? The unilateral recognition of Kosovo, "Macedonian", Turkey in Kurdistan what do all these means for a country like us who like to be distinguished from the Balkans ... (To our village?)
Perhaps we could say some views on this
