Fascinating! I found this comment very interesting :
"What do Greece have in common with Macedonian ancient empire? Greek polises were conquered by Alexander, and some Greeks served in his army hut never on the management positions. However, he used the greek language, which was lingua franca at that time naturally for practical reasons. Similar like English nowadays. Greek ancient historians were emphasizing the distinctiveness of Greeks from Macedonians. In 19 centuries, it became important for the Greek state to appropriate Macedonian antique heritage for justifying occupation of Macedonia."

do you agree with this ?
