The Origin of Ancient Macedonians and OTHER Greeks

[Astoria]

Alexander spoke fluently the Koine Dialect and I don't think that he had nessecity for translators ...How did Aristoteles teached him if he didn't spoke Greek?????

I don't think he'll answer this question. I don't think any ultra-nationalist skop will know how to answer this question. Don't wait for an answer.

Where did you find it?Prove it!As far as iknow,the generals in Alexander's army were only Macedonians
Can you explain this:
Δημάρατος δ’ ὁ Κορίνθιος ἤδη πρεσβύτερος ὢν ἐφιλοτιμήθη πρὸς Ἀλέξανδρον ἀναβῆναι• καὶ θεασάμενος αὐτὸν εἶπε μεγάλης ἡδονῆς ἐστερῆσθαι τοὺς Ἕλληνας, ὅσοι τεθνήκασι πρὶν ἰδεῖν Ἀλέξανδρον ἐν τῷ Δαρείου θρόνῳ καθήμενον
Translation:As he(Demaratos the Corinthian) saw him(Alexander) he said that the Greeks who died before seeing Alexander sitting on Darius's throne missed out such a big pleasure.

If Alexander wasn't Greek,why sould the Greeks be happy seeing him on the throne of Darius?

ooo and another thing my dear northern friend ...You asked me where are you
...Well I think you are among Cossovo (Dardania in Antiquity) and Makedonia (Μακεδόνια in antiquity and now)....
...I think you're in Paeonia check the ancient maps !!
It's not bad descend from Paeonians ....Homer mentiones you as Trojan allies, Herodotus mensiones you as colonists of the Trojan Teukrians ...
...It's not bad at all being a Paeonian !!!
