Maps and Macedonia

[pankration]

It never fails to amaze me that the FYROM revisionists ignore the historical evidence of Macedonia. From different countries and from different eras, it never changes: Macedonia is part of Greece. Muslims, Christians, Europeans, Asians and North Americans never assign Macedonia a slavic identity as evidenced by the above maps. So to our Skopjean readers; try charting your slavic migrations and celebrating your slavic heroes. You can't overturn 2500 years of history just because you believe Tito's propaganda from a half a century ago. Look at these maps, then go to a library. Educate yourselves.

Pankration the known historician George Ostrogorsky (The Byzantium State) mention that Macedonia clearly was a theme that never include the Macedonian geographical borders and established for first time at 802 A.D.. His sourse was Theofanis (475,22). Is a common FYROMian Falsification.

Now a new map as about the Ottomans Vilayets as was before Balkans Wars at 1912. I found from a hungarian (I think) web site

Maceoniae et Thessaliae Regiones

Striking and decorative map regional map of a part of Greece, with a large cartouche. Nice dark impression. From Cluverius' Introductio in Universam Geographiam (first issued in 1629) and re-issued many times over the next 100 years, with maps being incorporated by various publishers beginning in the late 17th Century

As I see Skopjans try to find ancient maps in order to proove theirs brainwashing claims. But I want to thank you for theirs supports and the maps.

In this map as Skopjan said the term Graeciae is what the Romans called the region . But before the "creation" of the Greek nation
Of course no comment.
