Pontians are also "mentioned along with Patriotism but also with distrust and pejorative insults". Give us your best shot with another insinuation in this case too.

Exactly, My grandmother was blue eyed and blond haired and "alien" eyed who spoke Pontic and Koine from the island of Marmara (marble island) and got expelled from the botched Gallipoli campaign in the early 20's. Ponts got a bad rap entering Greece in the 20's.

But you know something, they had to try harder to get accepted into mainstream Greek society (even the ones coming from the former USSR now) and they're some of the best in the sciences and arts and politics . Aren't there some Russian Cosmonauts that are /were space voyagers of Pontic origin.

Wasn't a former Moscow mayor also a Pont?

THats an easy one.The Romanian government promised to recognize you by your stolen constitutional name if you recognized a Vlach(what the hell is Vlav???) minority.
Florina is full of the sons and daughter of Vlachs who came as refugees from Bitola and KRushevo.I dont think they like you very much Dime.

I've read off this website

http://p100.ezboard.com/fbalkansilly...icID=370.topic

that many Albanian Toscs are Albanized Greeks and Aroumanians due to the Albanians Islamists being used as an Islamic insrtument for converting non-muslims by the Ottomans.The website forum also states that the Gheg Albanians are actually from the Caucasus region (from linguistic eveidence)

Is there any study of the Fyrom's Albanian Tosc population with respect to a Romaic (Greek/Aroumanian )consciousness.
