| Some BG argument here. NO INSULT. | |
| boyan_yu | Well since seemingly I am not allowed to write in my own language I am forced to write in English. However I do not demand on you not writing in Macedonian, since we can all understand it. Now to the point. In advance I would like to say that i do not mean to insult anyone - just to make a reasonable argument since this is a very impostant topic for me. I need to know what do you really think about this, without hard words ot curses. I realize that one of the two sides is terribly misleaden and I wish to know which one. So here is the topic - why do YOU think that many of the people living in the state Macedonia are not part of the bulgarian nationality? I have some arguments. I am sure that you have some. So let me know if I am wrong. After all - that's what the forums are for - arguing. Thank you. Yours Boyan Yurukov, Plovdiv, Bulgaria. |

| Ceki | Well, sofians can call themselves shopi, ... But the problem is that those who call themselves Macedonians, dont think they are bulgarians, but Macedonians! The name Macedonia is older than bulgaria, shopi, ... So it is irational to think that Macedonia could be part of bulgarian identity!
quote:So, if you want to conclude, that we are bulgarians, because we speak slavic language, be welcome to tell this to all other slavic speaking nations aswell[:)] And when you will be by Croatians, tell them they are serbians, because they speak similar language to serbians[:)] quote:As possible as you can say, that you are succesors of Thracians, bulgarians, slavs, ... For christ sake, what is weird here? Balkan is very transitive region. Tribes came and passed. Some stayed and by mixing all those ancient people we got Macedonians, we know today. And please stop with bullshiting, that this is not possible. Are you trying to say that you are PURE and CLEAN bulgarian, slav or whatever you think you are. This is not possible and absurd! Not on balkan, bulgar! Macedonia was always place where different tribes, religions, cultures met and time by time developed int one of the greatest and unique culture of all times, that all other nations at some point took something from! At least people and land, if nothing else! quote:At least we agree! |
| Ceki | quote:BTW, for me is very stupid and absurd, how you and greeks say that there are Macedonians in your country, but that they are bulgars and greeks at the same time! Not to mention serbs here. FUCK IT is the world blind or what!!!! |
| Pavel_Petrov | You didnt understand me quite clear. I said that Bulgarians are Slavs just to tell you to stop calling Bulgarians --Tatars. By the way I live in North Bulgaria and I look like Norwegian or Swede. The next thing.I said modern Macedonians are Slavs. 100% true. You speak Slavonic Language .. 100% true. This fact doesnt make you Bulgarians. I dont want to say this. I just said that modern Macedonians are Slavs. Ancient Macedonians are not Slavs. This is more than 10000% true. So I just want to ask. How can you be the successors of Alexander? PS. I do not want to prove that Macedonians are Bulgarians. I just want to tell you that in Bulgaria(in the borders of Bulgaria). Macedonian means a man that lives in the region Macedonia.And those people that live in Pirin region know they are Bulgarians. They just call themselves Macedonian to show where are they from. Just like Bitolian means a man living in Bitola. Bitolians are not separate nation ,right? To Ceki: Do not call me bulgar. There no living bulgar on the world. This is ancient people. Nowadays there are Bulgarians and Bolgars. Bolgars are in Russia.They do not have their own language and they are muslims. |
| Ceki | First, W/E!!!
Second, i already answered on your questions and "thesis"!!! And you obviously dont have a clue about MIXING different tribes in one nation, if you think, we Macedonians are PURE slavs or bulgars!!!
For example, when i already answered you:
quote:Answer: BTW, for me is very stupid and absurd, how you and greeks say that there are Macedonians in your country, but that they are bulgars and greeks at the same time! Not to mention serbs here. FUCK IT is the world blind or what!!!! quote:YOU, I MEAN YOU, NOOOOOOOOO, YOU REALLY WOULDNT DO THAT, MWAHAHAHAA! Not the little innocent Daisy over here! |
| graf | abre Bugarija is just a country that has a broken down nuclear reactor , priate cds and clothes and cheap whore ahahah |
| VMR0 | quote:Ok... first of all to answer Q 1... Chernopeev and lerinski were Bulgarians of course they are going to come from Bulgaria... they were Bulgarian by Nationality Q2 Which leaders? are you talking about the Vrhovisti (who inflitrated VMRO for the intrests of Bulgaria) Q3 the Macedonians had to finish in Bulgarian, Greek or Serbian schools because during that time big propaganda wars were going on in Macedonia organised by the Churches of Bulgaria greece and serbia to brainwash the Macedonians but it didnt work... maybe in some cases it did.. and also another factor for them to finish school in bulgaria or grece and serbia was due to the fact that these countries got independance from the ottoman empire while Macedonia was still under Occupation an example of a famous Macedonians education is Krste Petkov Misirkov who studied in Belgrade (Serbia). Q4 All the finance and weapons werent just from Bulgaria, weapons were also smuggled from the region of now Albania. Q5 Bulgarian litteracy? is the russian Alphabet Bulgarian aswell...? the Macedonians mostly were educated in Bulgaria and its fair to say of course they were going to use the alphabet they learnt... im using the english/latin alphabet... its because i learnt this... and for the record that alphabet is Macedonian... Made by St Kiril and Metodij who were Macedonians from Solun hence... makeing it the old Macedonian alphabet. finally lucky last Q6 Boris Sarafov, Aleksandar Protegorov and Co... were Vrhovisti tied to Imperial Bulgaria's foreign affairs who worked for the enemy against their brothers... Sorry for this late reply to this post... i just saw it now!!! |
| Fred | BRAVO VMRO!
Finally someone at this forum who tries to give an actual answer and doesn't hide under tons of swearing and the usual banning and deleting!
However let me not agree with you!
First you did not answer the first part of the post by backagain about the name of the organization:
VMORO (Vatreshna Makedono-Odrinska Revolutiona Organizatia)1905-1919
TMORO (Taina Makedono-Odrinska Revolutiona Organizatia)1902-1905
BMORK (Balgarski Makedono-Odrinski Revolutionen Komitet)1893-1902

The docs are in LITERAT BULGARIAN FORM...not just letters...but everything!!!The way you and I speak,though very close, has some differences...and the docs of VMRO, including their USTAV, are all in BG norm of language...ONE very easy example...you say sLoboda and the literary BG norm is sVoboda, but that's just one example out of many....

| Misirkov | I said that Bulgarians are Slavs......By the way I live in North Bulgaria and I look like Norwegian or Swede. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Are they really?! Two businessmen have offered 5.000.000 milion EURO for explainign how did they turn into "Slavs"! You may be able to earn them if you show how such a miracle happened. For Bulgarians were and still are turkic-mongol people (which I assume you are not). The fact that you may look like a Swede should make you question whether you are an ethnic Bulgarian, or you whether you bear a "political name" Bulgarian. There is a sea of difefrence. So think about it whether your roots are in Altai or in Macedonia. There is a reason why Bulgaria does not let go of Macedonia, and you should wise up to know why. On the other hand, there still are people with historical mongoloid looks today in Bulgaria. I have seen them in Lovec for example. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Macedonians are Slavs. 100% true. You speak Slavonic Language .. 100% true. I just said that modern Macedonians are Slavs. Ancient Macedonians are not Slavs. This is more than 10000% true. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Macedonians are Macedonains and speak Macedonian language. Classifying them and their language into larger categories is where you or others stumble and often draw erroneous conclusions about us. Some Western linguists at Harvard do not call it "slavic" at all but a "Macedonian group of languages" -- just like there is bulgarian group of languages (chuvas or tatar for example). "Slavic" is a Byzantine invention anyway -- as proved by scholar Florin Curta: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0521802024/wwwlink-software-21/026-9236358-7182006 Our ancestors, the ancienty Macedonians of Philip and Alexander (which are likely your ancesttors as well), spoke their own native language, as did many tribes and peoples that inhabited Macedonia since prehistory till today, here including the Bulgarinas who spoke their asiatic language. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. I just want to tell you that in Bulgaria (in the borders of Bulgaria), Macedonian means a man that lives in the region Macedonia. 2. And those people that live in Pirin region know they are Bulgarians. 3. They just call themselves Macedonian to show where are they from. Just like Bitolian means a man living in Bitola. Bitolians are not separate nation, right? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1). OK. 2). Many people in Pirin Macedonia were and still are Macedonians. Due to 200 years of systematic denationalization, Macedonians to this very day are not able to self-identify. Why doesn't the Bulgarian govenment allow them to freely express their ethnicity as this is their right??? There is pervasive evidence of harassment at every level if Macedonians do so. Even the advisor to Zelju Zelev recognized that the numbers were hidden in the past 14 years and Bulagria was ostracised in EU institutions because of it. MANY IN BULGARIA DO NOT RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS OUR GOOD WILL THAT WE DID NOT MAKE AN ISSUE OUT OF THIS SO BULGARIA CAN HAVE A FREE PASS IN EU. 3). Not only it is not true, it is plain idiotitc not to recognize the difference between Macedonian nationality and an inhabitant of Bitola! And why do you feel compelled to tell us who and what we are, and what should "Macedonia/n" mean when we clarly had identified as Macedonians? Did you know that there were 25 public persecutions in 1948 on of known Macedonians who epressed their national consciousnes? Unfortunately, the darkness of the communist era in Bulgaria continues today with regards to the Macedonians, with more refined methods. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Do not call me bulgar. There no living bulgar on the world. This is ancient people. Nowadays there are Bulgarians and Bolgars. Bolgars are in Russia.They do not have their own language and they are muslims. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bulgars are the people (Bolgar, B'lkar, Bulgar) you claim are your ancestors, don't you? You can't sit on two chairs: bulgarian descendants, but then "slavs". Em saka da se "raboti" em da ne mu vleze.[:)] |
| VMR0 | quote:Ok... like i said before... the Macedonians learnt in Bulgarian schools of course they are going to use this alphabet, they learnt, just like kostadin mladinov learnt in greek and wrote in greek... the Letter by Goce Delchev is falsified... Bulgarians are known for falsifying History especially Macedonian history... Why dont the Bulgarians tell the truth and admit they were the ones responsible for the death of Goce Delchev, and the fall of the ilinden upsrping? |

| Freddy | I see no problem in this letter by Nikola Karev! Who says that the ppl did not feel Macedonian?Of course they did...however, they clearly knew that Macedonian meant being someone who lives in Macedonia - Bulgarian, Greek, Vlach etc. They wanted an multiethnical independant state!They never however said they are not Blgarians. In his letter Karev speaks of "Bugarija" i "Bugarite" meaning the pll and the authorities of Bulgaria. VMRO did not only faught for the right of the Bulgarians in Macedonia,it also faught for the other ethnical groups - greeks,vlachs,albanians....They all were macedonians... One question; why are like 95% of the ppl from VMRO with names ending in -ov?Very little -ski?Unlike TODAY that you have most names in -ovski! Why do the liders of VMRO have 3 NAMES...like us Bulgarians...I know that you usually have only 2 names like the serbs! |
| Ceki | OMFG, you must be really stupid. Because he said Macedonians, he thought by that bulggariasn + others???

| VMR0 | quote:... first of all... as i wrote previously... they used Bulgarian??? why... because there was no Macedonian school's Macedonia was still under Ottoman occupation, they went to Bulgarian schools, is kostadin Mladinov Greek for using the greek language???? am i english/american/australian for using the english language??? No i am not... language doesnt mean your ethnicity... as for the letters, isnt it a ironic that even your own musueam (Sofia National Historical Museum) revealed the truth regarding the falsyfications? oh yes it is!!!! the VMRO-vci didnt regard the name Macedonia and Macedonians as what you stated later on in the posts... it is stupid to think and say so... because in the Krushevo constitution it clearly distinguishes at the nationalities living in Macedonia... with Macedonians at the top and Arnautite (Albanians), Vlachs, Turks etc etc... as how i mentioned in the Previous post about Goce Delchev being betrayed... well, let me answer that... Goce Delchev was betrayed by a Bulgarian... he went to the Military Acedemy with him.. he told the Turks were Goce was (Banica) and they killed him, also... the ILINDEN upspring was called to early because of Bulgaria... Bulgaria said "when the first gun fires in Macedonia, Bulgaria will jump in straight away to free Macedonia and the Macedonians" where was Bulgaria? no where... Bulgaria's meddling in cost more Macedonian lives then the Turks had ever taken. |

| Freddy | I don't care what you think about Bulgarians and Bulgaria....if you wanna feel better by calling us "tatars" and believing that Bulgaria is poorer than Fyr Macedonia then I don't give a damn...but don't come and ask us for help when one day the shiptars F**K your ass off...unfortunately for you this day will came very very soon ....and while you are continuing to play with us the big bad "tatars" the shiptars are preparing your graves...for me it's just a game I live 500 km. away from FYR Macedonia /na Crnoto More/ and the things that happen down there are just pics from the News...AS for you however this is your future!!! P.S.I had the chance to came accross a paper article in a MK paper....I could not stop laughing about how uneducated or probably misleading your politicians and journalist are!!! They are talking about entry in NATO in 2007!!! - IMPOSIBILE!Why?First you are in a package with Albania and it DEFINITELY WILL NOT be ready by 2006/when you shoud receive an invitation/!NATO will NEVER accept a state where less then 8 years ago there was a kind of civil war!!!It will never accept a state where there is a potential risk for near future war conditions!Why aren't your politicions telling you that the earliest date MK could become a member is 2009?!?! P.P.S.Macedonia in the EU by 2010?!?Excuse me!!!?2015-2017 is more likely!Even Croatia that's 200 times better off, will have difficulties getting ready by 2009 and most say 2010 is the more likely date!!! Getting in the EU is not like entering the rich states' club!You won't become rich immediately it will just help you go this way but it's not a magic pill!!! If I were your PM I would work to decrease the unemployment of 40%!!!How are you living with 40% nevraboteni???Bulgaria has 12% and that is still high for the EU standard...we have to bring it down to 8% by 2007 when we will enter the EU!!! But hay continue lesening your complexes and waiting someone to help you and you will end really bad! |
| Ceki | Misirkov dal si ja procital ti ova knjiga "The Making of the Slavs: History and Archaeology of the Lower Danube Region, C.500-700". Ako mojs da kazis na brzina sto pisuva, kakvi dokazi prikazuva, i taka napred. Ili ako znajs nekade nekoj link kade e napisano nesto za ta knjiga. Interesna mi e sto e publicirana od Cambridge. Plus i jas slusnav deka postojit edna knjiga kade pisuvat deka bil Justinjan "sloven". Mislam deka e ceska knjiga, i deka e sega vo viena. Ova e interesno posto toj ziveese skoro 50 i pojke godini pred doseluvanjeto na slovenite. A ako go gledame negoviot tatko Justin( ako e eden e i drugiot "sloven") onda e to skoro 100 godini pred "oficijalnoto" doseluvanje na "slovenite" na ovie prostori. I plus faktot deka bese car, moze da go demantira to deka dojde do naseluvanje na slovenite. Nekoj studenti sakaja da odat vo viena da barat da ja vidat ta knjiga. Ama to e se sto znam, nimi ne gi znam za zal. Samo go slusnav toa. |
| Freddy | Ha 99,99% of the historians agree that the slavs DID exist...a single crappy book doesn't proove them wrong! If you wanna read a book : "How are the Macedonians" there is a banner that appears on THIS FORUM from time to time to amazon where you could by it...it's by an english guy I think... |
| Ceki | Crappy book? Have you read it? I havent and i dont judge it yet, cos of that.
And it is not just one "crappy" book. All "south slavs" in 19th century thought of themselves to be descendats of Ilyrians. From Slovenians to serbians, and Macedonians looked for their ancestors in ... well ... Macedonians.

Any kind of activity that was undertaken for the liberation of Macedonia was considered anti-goverment movement and was punished with "surgun", or death. Does that give you a hint why our Macedonian heroes couldn't organize, collect weapons, and gather in Macedonia freely? Does that explain why the Macedonian founders of VMRO were educated in Sofia and spoke and wrote bulgarian well? Now dumbshit, before you say another stupid thing on here, answer this. If we are one nation, one tradition, one history, why in the fuck would all those people fought for the liberation of Macedonia? Not for joining Macedonia toward bulgaria, but for free, independent, sovereign country. Why was Gjorce Petrov assasined by the bulgarian police? Why? The Ilinden uprising was not fought by our grand-grandparents for joining Bulgaria, but for a FREE MACEDONIA. Sloboda ili SMRT was their moto, an for that cause they shed blood. Have you read the Krushevo manifest, it says FREE MACEDONIA? Before you go accuse somebody of brainwashing, ask yourself, have you been brainwashed perhaps? How all of a sudden from a tatar, you became related to Macedonia? Here, let us take an independent source, CIA fact book, afterall, CIA should know the best, right? Intro for Bulgaria taken from the CIA fact book states: The Bulgars, a Central Asian Turkic tribe, merged with the local Slavic inhabitants in the late 7th century to form the first Bulgarian state. In succeeding centuries, Bulgaria struggled with the Byzantine Empire to assert its place in the Balkans, but by the end of the 14th century the country was overrun by the Ottoman Turks. Bulgaria regained its independence in 1878, but having fought on the losing side in both World Wars, it fell within the Soviet sphere of influence and became a People's Republic in 1946. Communist domination ended in 1990, when Bulgaria held its first multiparty election since World War II and began the contentious process of moving toward political democracy and a market economy while combating inflation, unemployment, corruption, and crime. In case the comunist that brainwashed YOUR brain did not tell you the name of your tribe, I ll help you, it starts with a T. |
| boyan_yu | Frist I should say something with all my heart with the risk of being banned - backagain, 369again or whatever you are called - I LOVE YOU. Frankly you said most of the things I had in mind. I did mean to use the facts stated in the books published by VMRO, but still you said about enought. DJ_SHEMA - you say that turish government suppresed you so that the so colled "macedonians" had no chance of developing educational system. ok then - do you know why serbs had better conditions than bulgarians during this slavery - they were firther away from the captial - as the macedonian region. if there were such thing as macedonians, why didn't you develop educational system which you didn't have while you had better chances than us. We did considering the fact that all turkish armies were settled in the area of trakia and mizia? how could the bulgarians there prosper and the bulgarians in macedonia didn't. I have an answer - then the whole people gather to do something they organize it in the center. that may not make sense to you but it is a matter of strategy. and the center is in Trakia. yours center, our center. Moreover I still do not understand why you do not answer what 369again wrote about that forum in Skopije? Or that is another TABU topic in the state of Macedonia - all topic that might contradict the main stream should be banned. doesn't that sound like misrepresentaion of the facts or am I wrong? And, by the way, the organization in western Trakiq was called in a similar way as VMRO? Does that mean that the people there are a different people? I am not and I am born there. You are not so stop calling other stupid. Denying history stubbronly does not make you smarter, only blinder. |
| Byzantine | Well Shema,
If to make a historical argument you need facts,then to make a dialogue to need to argue the points you disagree with,with the person who made them.
Now kindly extract the sentence where I state ANYTHING having to do with the region in PIRIN.
Thank you for mentioning Metaxas.I wonder what facts you are refering to.My granfather was an officer in Metaxa's army,and my friend's granfather was the chief justice in the supreme court of Greece at the time.(My granfather's name is the same as mine so you can look it up in your "fact book".
As for Metaxas you may or may not know that he was a German leaning figure in Greek politics.However he decided that during WW2 the winning side was going to be the aliance and not the axis.At the same time Bulgaria was under the influence of the Germans.
This automatically meant that Greece and Bulgaria were members of conflicting alliances.The Germans in order to appease the Bulgarians had promised them a San Stefano border regime.As such the Germans after defeating the Greek army allowed the Bulgarians to administer the provinces of Macedonia and Thrace in Greece.
On the other hand Metaxas' fixed policy was to keep clear the coridor connecting Greece and it's traditional ally to the north Serbia.Any development that would drive a wedge between Greece and Serbia was looked upon as a hostile act to Greek interests.
As a result the Bulgarians were trying to entrench their administrative power over the whole of Macedonia and were promoting the idea that all slavs in the macedonian region we're Bulgarians,while the Greeks we're arguing that the Slavs in Greece and in Vardarska Banovina were an independent nation of Macedonian-Slavs not related to the Bulgarian nationality.
This same policy was inherited by the Greek Comunist party during the civil war.
The byproduct of this policy is evident even today where Bulgaria argues that slavs living in the R.O.M. are Bulgarians,where as Greece argues they are an independant nation of slavs.
All this is well and good but what is your point in bringing up Metaxas?
I clearly suggested that a picture does not solve the complexity of the question concerning the cultural links between Bulgarians and yourselves.If a picture is enough then what would be your reaction if I supply this site with a picture of thousands of Greeks in the street in the center of Bitola being expelled? That Greeks lived in Bitola,so what would that prove?

Byzantine
quote: |
| dejan | You just confirmed that it was a Bulgarian who started this dispute. You confirmed it in this thread, which means that you have confirmed that 'a' Bulgarian started started it many years ago. No i didn't know that boyan, maybe because it isn't true. I cannot believe this. How dare you, the both of you, come into a forum that is full of Macedonians and tell us what we are and what we arn't! You know, i am really sorry of your lack of history, but that doesn't mean you have to attack smaller countries and tell the people where they are originally from. Have you know shame in what you do? Do you not feel any shame in those hearts! I cannot understand how you have no shame or self pity in what you both are doing in this thread! I feel for you two, i really do. It makes me feel slightly upset about you two, knowing that you probably do not have a life, so you have to join the group of Bulgarians, preaching to the Macedonians. Acting like you people know everything. This is how world wars are started you dolts! You should feel very embarrassed and ashamed inside yourself!!!! This is the first time that i have ever read anything like this! I never knew that these sort of tensions existed between Macedonia and Bulgaria. It makes me extremely sad knowing that there are people like you that spoil young boys dreams of knowing where he comes from!!!! I hope you are both HAPPY AND PLEASED thank you very much, you just managed to degrade a young boy to complete pity(towards you of course) No wonder why we always ban you, because of the shit you say in these forums. Fuck off you idiots. Stop coming into our forum and telling us who we fucking are. Because honestly, we don't care, we don't care anymore. Go and harrass Romania or Serbia that they are Bulgarians. Fucking cock tards:@ Sorry that you have no social lives, and that you have to go onto the internet to actually 'talk' to people. Or 'communicate' Have fun living out your lives telling others where they are from. Oh btw, you didn't mention anything about this link!http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/bu.html |
| Byzantine |
Well Dejan,
First after seeing the CIA site that you wanted me to see I did.I don't get it what are you getting to.It's the file concerning Bulgaria.Are you refering to the fact that your country is not listed as Bulgaria? I'm not saying that it is but the Republic of Cyprus is an independent country,but it doesn't chenge the fact that citizens of that country are Greek,what does that prove?
As for being ashamed,I don't think you understand that what we are discussing hear as irritating to you as it may be is not just limited to this dialogue.It's an international political conflict that invloves all the countries of the southern Balkans.
1)For example the acceptance of Albanians as equals in your motherland will make the difference between stability within this country and its relations with Albania and some Kosovo republic if it ever actually happens.
2)The conflict between the Serbian church and yours could create religious tensions with Serbia far into the future,where by they will consider your church (along with all the other Orthodox churches)a schism.That would in effect mean you fall in love with some Orthodox person not of your nationality a wedding in one of your churches wouldn't be recognised in any other Orthodox church.
3)The name issue with Greece must be resolved because Greece is a member of the European Union and soon so will Cyprus.That means when time comes to enter the union (the only hope for this country's existence)ROM will be blocked by two vetos from two EU countries.Turkey hasn't entered the union in over 15 years of trying and only had Greece as a problem.
4)Your arguments with Bulgaria must be settled because Bulgaria will also be in the EU by 2007 and will not accept any anti-Bulgarian positions from a country wishing to enter the EU.
Just to give you an example here,there is already a commitee of historians Greek and Bulgarian who are meeting on a regular basis trying to eliminate texts in history books that makes these countries students feel hostility to eachother.In all history books in Greece and Bulgaria Alexander and the Macedonians of antiquities will be treated as Greeks,and King Samuel will be treated as a Bulgarian.Romania and Serbia are soon to join this commitee and so is Albania. What does this mean ,that your childen will be learning the opposite of what all the other children in the balkans.
If these issues are not resolved how can you hope for a better future for your people? It certainly won't happen by telling people to "Fuck off" and leave you alone.That might work in this ng but not in international relations.
As for the dreams of a child,you know that it is dangerous creating dreams in your mind that conflict with the dreams of others.
best regards,
Byzantine

| dejan | They have left, the Bulgarians always come here say what they say and leave. Or they see that they don't stand a fighting chance, because we are stronger:p so they leave in self pity and shame:( I feel for you people....not really. Leave us alone. |
| 369 | Maybe you don't know what is a forum, here is the definition in case: a medium of open discussion or expression of different ideas. A long time ago, I posted a thread called "Ethnicity of Macedonia (Aegean, Vardar and Pirin),of course because I was provocating AKA saying to much truth, I was banned. Then the answers came, many were laughing because I couldn't respond to their ""proven"" theories...how do you want me to respond when you ban or freeze the profile of every Bulgarian on the forum. I am pretty sure that Byzantine and Boyan aren't scared of your theories, they just went to kill themselves after hearing all the bullshit coming from you and thinking that you people have bulgarian blood. I said in my previous thread the follow "Bojidar Dimitrov (Well-known bulgarian historian)will give 100 000 EUR if somebody shows him an authentic document written in Macedonian before WW2." A guy called Thunder from down under responded the follow "Give this hint "Parteni Zografski (1818-1875)" to you educated friend and tell him to stick his diploma and his 100,000 euros up his ass" If that Parteni Zografski really existed, why didn't the Skopian historians or OMO Ilinden show this document, it would of giving you a lot of advantages. 1) World recognition and maybe recognition of your country by it's constitutional name 2) Bulgarian historians would have looked like dumb asses because their theories about Macedonia would have being wrong 3) 100 000 EUR would have helped a lot the renovation of Macedonia's historical sites ... |

Sure,Shema.
You know my kind so well it took you who knows how many posts just to figure out my nationality,right?
You don't hate people because of their origins but this does not keep you from calling people morons because they disagree with you,or call Bulgarians Gypsees, right?
I'm getting the impresion here that a whole international political storm is brewing (rubish?) and you guys are treating it as if you can afford to ignore it.
As for avoiding questions,why don't you ask any question you like and I will answer,(based on original texts,and on history books published ONLY by Oxford,Stanford and Cambridge)except I won't be as juvenile as to use the CIA as a historical basis!

Now, since you are such a gentleman, why are you using subtle provocations with the juvenile refference. You are saying that CIA doesn't have proper inteligence? And, again, the link was for the bulgarian posters. Why do you feel the need to stick your nose in all matters? Are you sure you are greek? Here is a link for you on your uncle Metaxas http://forums.vmacedonia.com/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=true&TOPIC_ID=2476 |
| Byzantine | Dear Shema,
first things first,
1)Byzantio the name:
Old name of the geographic region to be name Konstantinoupoli.Named after the Ionian colony who's king's name was Byzantas (B pronounced V)
2)The Byzantine empire is born when the Romans overrun by the German tribes shifts its capital to the Greek speaking part of the empire by Konstantine who names the city after himself in Greek to be known as the city of Konstantine (Konstantinoupoli)
3)After the reign of emperor Heracleos in the mid 600's the official language of the empire is changed to Greek which continued untill the fall of the Byzantine empire in 1453.
You must know that after the Greek revolution against the Turks the Greeks were rallying around the idea "Megali Idea"(traslated to the Great Idea) of reestablishing the Byzantine territories and reinstate Konstantinople as the religious capital of the new state.
As they are not with me at the moment I will provide (as I promised in my previous post)the leading book on Byzantine history published by the University of Stanford.
This empire was the only Christian empire the world has seen and the only to last over 1000 years.It merged Greek and Roman cultures.In my mind there is no greater empire ever recorded in world history and thus the name "Byzantine".
2) As far as the CIA is concerned my provocztions are not subtle.The CIA never existed as a true central inteligence agency.Throughout their existence during the cold war they depended on two other agencies to provide them with information:
a)The British MI (MI5 - MI6) were the ones feeding the Americans information concerning affairs of the eastern block.
b)The Israely Mossad was providing information concerning the middle east.
-Evidence of this was the fact that as far back as WW2 the Brits were the ones who alerted the Americans that Hitler was building a bomb.It was the Brits who made contact with the German scientists and linked them to the Americans.
-Evidence of this is the fact that the Americans were taken by surprise by the attack on the Americans in Beirut from which the Americans left.
-Evidence of this in more current times was the fact that the Vietkong was ready to overun Saigon and the Americans found out too late and abandoned the friendly Vietnamese forces on their way to save their own hides.
-The most recent lack of trained field operatives most indicative of the CIA was the fact that their contractors (MRPI)were caught red handed by the "TIGRI" (one of which is a very good friend of mine)in Arachinevo.Why Georgievski (that asshole if you don't mind)let them go instead of making an international incident is beyond me.(Had it been in Greece we would have burned the US embassy to the ground).Whatever the case it was proven throughout international think tanks that the Americans themselves had supported the rebelion and had financed it from the collapse of the financial Pyramids in Albania.
The MRPI is a contractor (merceneries) who the CIA hires to do their dirty work (Bosnia,Kosovo,Sierra Leone,Liberia,etc.)What were they doing in Arachinevo during the gunfight? hunting wild boar?(doesn't say in the CIA website does it?
3)There are no links for Bulgarian or Madagascarian posters.There are issues,and whoever has something with any historical credibility to add should be welcomed.(be it irritating or not)
Furthermore I've lived in Skopje for 4 years and in Sofia 5 years.I understand the Bulgarian arguments the sincere ones and the not so sincere better that you do,and I understand your arguments better than they do.
4)As for the "link" it's what I was refering to as indirect evidence.Personally I would have used the document issued by the Greek government and not interpretations of documents.
All being said and done the document is pretty solid.I know the period in question quite well both historically and from accounts of people who lived it.
If you look into it deeper you'll find that the English had been very emphatic in warning Metaxas not to trust the said minority as it posed a danger of supporting Bulgarian interests.While it wasn't true Bulgarians had agents all over the Kostursco area to give Greeks the impression that this was indeed a Bulgarian minority (a standard Bulgarian position).So when Metaxas in his paranoia accepted this minority as being dangerously Bulgarian leaning he treated them like the enemy (which was exactly what the Bulgarians wanted).It was one of the most succesfull moments of the Bulgarian foreign office.As you may remember historically Bulgaria and Greece were bitter enemies throughout the century.Greece was simply not going to tolerate any Bulgarian minority in Greece.
You're right to scream at the highest tone of your voice that Slav -Macedonian and Bulgarian is not the same but the Bulgarians were better organised throughout the 19th century than you guys were.Proof of this is the fact that they persuaded Hitler to give them Administrative power over all of northeastern part of my country and your country as well.Their mistake was choosing the losing side.
Am I sure I'm Greek? Yes.Ama toa ne znachi deka ne vi rasbiran koga pishuvate na vashiot jazik!

Do not go to any further extent about making up history and then claim that Cyrill and Methodius were bulgarian. Because then we say HEY THEN THAT MEANS THAT EVERYONE ELSE IN THIS WORLD IS BULGARIAN! HAHA. No i don't think we'll be hearing that, after you have read this(take from cia world fact book): "The Bulgars, a Central Asian Turkic tribe, merged with the local Slavic inhabitants in the late 7th century to form the first Bulgarian state.

Bulgaria regained its independence in 1878, but having fought on the losing side in both World Wars, it fell within the Soviet sphere of influence and became a People's Republic in 1946" Yes...don't comitt suicide over this. Like i said, it is not your fault. So don't blame yourself. So please, stop continuing your made up history. Now...after reading that, i hope you have a different perspective.

| Byzantine | Thunder,
Just a quick comment:
1)I said that credible historical information can be found only at credible historical institutions.
a)Cambridge
b)Oxford
c)Stanford
These are not Greek universities and they are not afraid of anyone.
2)I suggested to a source which is for adults.If you think an encyclopedia will do the job for analytical research why do you think they publish specialized books on these topics?

| Maverik | quote:I don't actualy get your question? You ask why MANY of the people in Macedonia are not of bulgarian nationality? Saying this do you automaticaly presume that the other part of these MANY are with Bulgarian nationality? Anyway, in the Republic of Macedonia thare isn't anybody with Bulgarian nationality. Or, their number is very small. According to the last years cenzus about 65% are Macedonian by nationality, 23% Albanians and the others are Turks, Serbs, Roma, Vlahs. |
| Thunder from down under | if you are confused about some surnames in Macedonia, that is becouse Macedonians we force to ,during wars and occupations, cousin of my mother had a serbian surname during one of the wars and was a serbian soldier but later he changed his surname back,some of the macedonians still have the old surnames that have been changed, also Bulgarians come in the 7 century in the balkans, macedonians were in the balkans long longggggggggggg time before the bulgarians |
| Legal-Eagle | Before any of you go on any further with this healthy debate you all need to have a concise meaning of the term "Nationality". I think this might clear some of the misunderstandings that may arise. |
| graf | boyan_yu abre sto e ova !!! First thing your question does not make any sense. It should like this "why do YOU think that many of the people living in the state bulgarian are not part of the Macedonia nationality? " WE are macedonians. Why is it that every other country wants this nation??? THe reason why is because we have history, culture and a belief. THat is why so countries want us cause they do not have these assets. |
| boyan_yu | First of all, Legal-Eagle is right - we should set the term "Nationality". In the history books we read that that is a group of people with common language, culture, historical and political heritage. So I think that in order to answer my question we should discuss each and every of those points. Maverik - I DO mean that MANY of the people in the state of Macedonia are bulgarians and especially those in the eastern part. That is what I argue about. And I am ready to defend my point with examples from international resourses. Thunder from down under - I do not know a time that the state of Macedonia was occupied by Bulgaria. But hell I know - after all, I may be reading "propaganda" books, can I! If we need a relayable source of information, we should ask the people how were born when the macedonian nationality was created. Ask any Macedonian old woman and she will tell you stories. I heard one personally - how the Macedonian authrities, led by serbians, prohibited any Bulgarian symbols. Therefore the people separated the Bulgarian flag in three and each part was hiden in the cloths of a member of the family in order to be preserved. Ask them. graf - No one in bulgaria needs anything in Macedonia. Many of us curse you for denying historical facts, but still we need nothing from you. All we have - you have, because it is the same. Besides your country is way back in iconimical and technological sence, so you can only minimize our advance. |
| alex9564 | Hi fellows, I'm sincerely glad of your optimismus for the history of Macedonian!!! Of course, I'm ABSOLUTELY sure that none of you would believe me, but after all I'll say it! Dear Maverik, ("According to the last years cenzus about 65% are Macedonian by nationality, 23% Albanians and the others are Turks, Serbs, Roma, Vlahs.") that's really very good. You just need to know more about the history!!! So, a few years after the artificial RECREATION of the Macedonia by the communists (thats aproximitely in the 60's of the XX century) , INDEPEDNDENT french cenzus shows that 75% of the population of the new country has a Bulgarian self-identification. I really would like to know how the MAJORITY of the nation has dissapeared for 50 years and in the last cenzus there is no Bulgarians. To all others, as I said before, I'm absolutely sure that you won't believe me and that's normal. I'll tell you why. That's the purpose. The purpose of the creators of the state of Macedonia was accomplished. You deny your past! Now you are Macedonians, because you are self-realized as Macedonians! But you are not these Macedonians of Alexander THE GREAT (in fact, I am named after to him, so I have to be Macedonian :))) It is practically impossible for your country to be the Great Macedonia after 3000 years!!! Most of your grandparents are Bulgarians, but who cares??? We don't need you! I don't need you! I just sorry about you! I hope that the smarter of you will try to understand me. Please, first try to find a book from an independent author, read about your history and then curse me if I'm wrong! I know that after some years Bulgaria will be in the European union and then you will need us. And then will be brothers again, but now... you all will say that that's a lie and so on and so on!!! Believe in what you want to believe, it's just for you, my fellows!!! And in the end, when I was in school one of my history teacher had a second cousin "Macedonian". When Macedonia had been created just two sisters had been seperated! And now the grandson of the first sister is Bulgarian and the grandson of the second sister is Macedonian and has nothing in common with Bulgaria!!! I really hope that you will try to believe to the TRUTH!!! |

| boyan_yu | Strelec, first of all, during the Second World War, the bulgarian army entered the region Macedonia not from humanian moods, but as our own territory. Moreover, most of the army was going home because their families lived in the villages near Skopije. And not only in this war but in all others before that. But as you may know, there was no macedonian state at the time - the territory was part of Sarbiq. And nowhere in the archives, nowhere arround Europe you can find records for "Macedonian nationality". Later this was invented by serbian goverment in order to minimise the influence of Bulgaria over the bulgarian citizens there. I am not claiming that Macedonia does not have a right to exist - no. I say that there hasn't been no such thing as macedonians for the last 2500 years and there isn't now. There is a video tape from the second world war, actually one of the few of its kind, showing the moment when bulgarian army entered Macedonia and its capital. People greeted the army from the very border. When a country is occupied people do not act like that. They do waht you did when Sarbiq went to a war to separate you from Bulgaria - you fought. I hope that everyone here can make the difference between a rose and gun on a video tape!!![?] |
| Strelec | quote:jas znam kako bi reagiral... ama (za zal) nemam orudie za takvo nesto! |
| boyan_yu | why? You don't like my part of the (hi)story? Because,if you really need a tank we can give you (again). |
| alex9564 | So, just one sentence to Strelec. When the Bulgarian army entered it the REGION Macedonia, there is no MACEDONIAN nation!!! The real macedonian nation has extincted long long ago- 64 before Christ!!! How can you claim that this nation can be preserved for more than 2000 years without own country- that's very funny???? But I already told you- you're free to believe in what you want!!! Just try to see the truth!!! And I don't use Bulgarian textbooks, as you had supposed!!! |

| dejan | Plus, kako dojdele Cyrill i Methodius vo Makedonija pret koj znae godini? A ? |
| boyan_yu | So Maverik, you say that there are many Macedonians in the Pirin region. But I have been there a lot of times and I have never met even a single man that claims to be Macedonian. My girlfriend is born in Blogoevgrad and knows quite well the people there. She does not know anyone, and I do mean ANYONE that identifies him/herself as Macedonian and frankly most of them are bored by you stating that they are part of some imaginary Macedonian nation. As you say that there are no Bulgarians in the state of Macedonia I can say that there are no Macedonians in Bulgaria. As for the statement that there were people in the region of macedomian that clamed to be "macedonians" in the 1920, thera are documents in the history museum of Berlin from the conference in San-stefano on 3 March 1878 that include counting of the population on the Bolkans. They wanted to separate the territories so that there will be only one nationality in every country. According to that count there were more than 75% of bulgarians in the regions of Mizia, Trakiq, Dobridja, MACEDONIA, some parts of easters Serbia, and some other little regions. Such thing as macedonian nation was not mentioned at all there. And you cannot possibly claim that there was any conspiration at all, because they counted the people according to what they said they were, not like the countings in macedonia were there is no option "Bulgarian". Why are you afraid of us? If you weren't afraid of us, you wouldn't hate us that much (Bulgarians). That is another proof you are bulgarians - you deny yourselves as we do. (By the way part of that was said by my girlfriend). As for dejan - koga barem sa bili Cyrill i Methodius vo Makedonija. At the time this territory was greek and nobody then claimed to be macedonian or an accessor of Fillip the Great, who actually is greek. But the language topic is for a whole another argument. |
| dejan | boyan_yu, you're different from the other Bulgarians that visit this forum..... I don't hate Bulgarians, i don't hate Greeks nor Serbians. You seem like an intelligent person, but i don't understand how us Macedonians, can be Bulgarians? I don't believe that there are not Macedonians in Blageovgrad. It sounds like a slavic name..... As far as i know, Macedonians are not afraid of Bulgarians, why should we? Who firstly started this dispute in the first place? That Macedonians were Bulgarians? Surely not a Macedonian. It would have had to be a Bulgarian that started it. It hurts me, slightly, when i see someone tell a Macedonian that he or she is Bulgarian. That's like saying to someone, leave your house, leave where you were born, leave all your possessions behind, or you will be killed. I only wish that all the countries surrounding Macedonia would put aside the disputes that have hindered the countries friendships to develop. (And i know that Macedonia would do the same) |

| Byzantine | Dear Boyan,
Your question is too difficult to answer with a few sentences.If we wanted to do it properly we would have to start from the current decade and go back fifty years at a time to monitor news paper articles,history books,secret service info that have been released,so that we can undertand the dynamic of how consiousness evolved.
If your up to this task,then be ready for at least months of debate on many issues per month.
Are you curious enough to start that kind of discusion?
best regards,

The treeaty of San Stefano was made between Rusia and Turkye, and Rusia being the winer in the war between them was making the conditions. Wanting to make their presence and influce felt in South Europe, aperently the best way was the creation of a Bulgarian state that streched to the Aegean in the south and as far to Ohrid in the west. With this making a new creation thta has never before egsisted as such in these teritories. The other powers like England and France didn't like the idea of Rusia having so much influence and because of that they organized the Berlin Treaty, just few months after San Stefano. With this I don't see how is Bulgaria connected to anything except realizing the plans of Rusia. Also as always in that times (and even now) these treaties were made so that the big powers can take care for their interests. |

Give me a break!
The same question has been given by numerous scholars.If a picture is enough evidence for you to feel certain about a historical argument then maybe you should join a cult!They love pictures there.And when people disagree with you then just shout very loudly "stamp out satan".
No it wont persuade your oponents but it will block off their questions.

Have you no shame?! Don't you have other things to do, that are better than trying to be some Bulgarian Patriot?! |
| Byzantine | Dejan,
If I'm not mistaken Bojan asked a question with a historical content in a place set aside for historical arguments.Why should anyone be ashamed?
And as for your statement that no young people in Macedonia discuss these things,well I would have to disagree.I'm in Skopje once a month,and now especially with the Church dispute going on and the Tetovskiot Facultet it's what many people are talking about.

Dejan,
I doubt that the Rakia argument will get you very far.After all don't forget that the Slovenians registered IVAR as their own invention! does this mean Slovenia has expansionist views too?
Try to separate business with history.
Secondly the treatment of the minority discussed in that article can easily be extended to your country.Remember that ther are over 7000 residents of the Republic of Macedonia which have Bulgarian passports and over 2000 that have Greek passports.And yet on the census these figures never came out.Why?
None of this however constitutes a historical argument.

| dejan | By the way, a question of mine wasn't answered a few posts back. Who started this dispute, about Macedonians being Bulgarians? Certainly not a Macedonian, a Bulgarian, i think so. Not our fault that the country lacks in history, so that doesn't mean that you have to try and act like a second Rome and claim that an entire country is actually Bulgarian. Oh and look at this, the introduction. http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/bu.html Wow! Like totally freak me out:o |

| Byzantine | OK, I saw the sight your refering to.I don't get it what are you trying to say?
quote: |
| Maverik | quote:Than you should try to separate people that have Bulgarian and Greek passport from people with Bulgarian and Greek nationality. All those people have both the Macedonian passport and Bulgarian or Greek respectively. And all of them have made them in th recent years due to the fact that travel and bussines in Europe is much easier with those passports than with the Macedonian. But, since you come often to Skopje, you propably know that already. |
| dejan | The site i was just referring too, i told you to read the Introduction! The first paragraph. And yet again you didn't answer my question!

Not our fault that the country lacks in history, so that doesn't mean that you have to try and act like a second Rome and claim that an entire country is actually Bulgarian. |
| Byzantine | Maverick,
In Brief
Since I visit Skopje often I also know that many Aegeitsi where given passports when they came to Yu. by your great Tito who changed the name of their birthplaces so that they couldn't pass the Greek border.All of them speak Greek,many have been getting Greek passports because they feel Greek.And some border guards have in my presence threatened them by telling them that dual citizenship is illegal.
Why don't you hang around Aerodrom district in Skopje and ask your friends why they're so secretive about their Greek passports?
And I don't think that business itself is reason enough to get a Greek passport since their male children will have to serve in the Greek military.That's a high price for a passport they would have gotten a Bulgarian one,its cheaper.
quote: |
| Maverik | quote:What you should also know is that Tito did not change the names of their birth places. they were changed by the greeks after the balkan wars in order to push out any non greek existance. This people, the refugees from the Aegean part, were not only situated in former Yugoslavia, but also through other countries like poland, Armenia, Russia etc. The bussines thing for a possport is another deal. For Bulgarian passport it is easy to get it. It is a procedure that takes about 6 months to one year. As far as the greek one is concerned, I'm not quite familiar with that, but I think it is not possible to get it unless you were born there. But, since bing another topic, lets get back to the discussion. |
| dejan | Byzantine! Are you ignoring my question? Since you seem to know the answer to everything, answer my question! Stop ignoring it. Who started this dispute, about Macedonians being Bulgarians? Certainly not a Macedonian, a Bulgarian, i think so. Not our fault that the country lacks in history, so that doesn't mean that you have to try and act like a second Rome and claim that an entire country is actually Bulgarian.

To get to my point. The Macedonian alfabet was standarized in 1944. This doen't by all means that the macedonian language was invented in that year. Before that the macedonian books and documents were published in different countries and by different printing machines.

| boyan_yu | As it seems I have been only 2 day away and quite a discussion has gone arround here. Actualy I like what dejan says, but generaly he does not offer any proof. As many people here. But what ever, one thing I've noticed and the main reason many bulgarians claim that there in no point in arguing with macedonians is that you do not accept to argue about the facts - present contra-facts or do anything to contradict - you only say - that is not right and repeat over and over again what the serbs wrote in your books. I see this going nowhere. It seems that something dramatic should happen in order you to see. There is one thing that might happen - Bulgarian and macedonian historians, togather with international specialists to sit on one table and discuss this on scientific basis. And I do mean that this SHOULD happen, because I CANNOT stand some european freaks to claim that Bulgaria is "discreminating" part of its people!!!! One thing that dejan said attracted my attention - that bulgarians do and argue in macedonia and are chased away with arguments and go away with their faces down - i think I got it right, didn't I? You know, dejan, more than 5 years ago, actually a lot more, a bulgarian historian set a award for the man that presented to him evidence that can stand the reasoning of international historians (notice - not bulgarian, since you mean that they a disfaithful). The award was 1 million dolars. You need 1000000 dollars. I do, how doesn't. Then why don't you go and get them with your evidence, and that goes for everyone here - IF YOU HAVE EVIDENCE THAT MACEDONIANS ARE NOT BULGARIANS, THEN GO AND GET RICH. You know something - no one yet tried. Not a single person claimed that the mijority of people in the region of macedonia weren't bulgarians. Why I ask? And two things more - dejan - No one in bulgaria wants you to leave you birth-place or change your life in any way. no one wants your territory or anything from you, as you claimed. We need recognition. And will send the EU to hell if we have to and deny our chance to join it, but not accept the fact that there can possible be such thing as "Macedonian nation". Too many people died for us to be togather to accept this fact. Secondly - that thing I wrote that there are no macedonians in Pirin - I was actialy writen by my girlfriend who is born there. We have 10 people here in Darmstadt from Blagoevgrad that claim the same. Moreover, dejan, the name Blagoevgrad IS REALLY slavic. There is no doubt about it. But if you claim that you are slavic, then you deny your all other claims, because there is absolutely no doubt in any historian work that Alexander the great was greek and that after his dinasty was distroyed by the romans, there were absolutely no notice of "macedonians" in roman records and as you know they have quite a lot of documentation about everything, and I do mean everything Or you did not know that? |
| Maverik | The Macedonian Dinasty in Bisantium? Maybe you know about it, Justinian was an emperor from this dinasty. No evidence? No Macedonains? Say it again please |

| n/a | And now let us see what happened at the International Symposium on the life and heritage of K.P. Misirkov. The symposium took place in Skopje, starting on 27 Nov. and ending on 29 Nov, 2003. *Account of a participant: what was said about Misirkov* ========================================================== - I thought that the emotions had run out of steam, bit yesterday, 29 Nov. 2003, a new scandal erupted quite surprisingly, despite the absence of Katardzhiev. After two rather obtuse presentations, it was the turn of Rostislav Terzioski to present the results of his latest research on Misirkov. Terzioski is specialized on Russia and the USSR and is a very good expert on the historical Russian archives related to Balkan history. His talk was titled: *About some opinions of Misirkov concerning the Macedonian question*. Terzioski said that he had found in Russia a file of about 80 pages, written by Misirkov during 1914, consisting mainly of documents, memorandums and appeals to the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other Russian institutions. All documents were related to the Macedonian question. Terzioski said that the documents had been known to very few people until now, and that they deserved to be published because of their importance. The words of Rostislav Terzioski follow: *************** Terzioski: - The content of these documents is in contradiction with some of the other writings of Misirkov, notably with his pamphlet "On the Macedonian Affairs". The documents do not confirm the established opinion of our historians about Misirkov. Is this a dilemma or is it a "so called" dilemma? For example, in a letter to the Russian foreign affairs minister, Misirkov declares himself to be a Bulgarian, talks about the unquestionably Bulgarian population of Macedonia, about his own Bulgarian background, about the Bulgarian people of Macedonia. Misirkov mourns for San-Stephano Bulgaria (which included all Macedonia), states that Macedonia is a staunchly Bulgarian land, talks about the suffering of the Bulgarian people in Macedonia under the Serbs, talks about the three main ethnic Bulgarian areas: North Bulgaria, Thrace and Macedonia. Misirkov says that 2.5 million Bulgarians were enslaved by Serbs and Greeks. He accuses Russia for separating Macedonia from Bulgaria and states that the Bulgarian national rights on Macedonia were unquestionable. He expresses his desperation from the fact that Macedonia was torn away from Bulgaria. Misirkov lashes out against the Serb propaganda which, according to him, was underway in Russia. He says that after the Bucharest treaty 2 million Bulgarians were enslaved by the Serbs. Misirkov demands united ethnic Bulgaria including all Macedonia, Dobrudzha, and Eastern Thrace. He states that the Serbs plundered lands that were ethnically purely Bulgarian, and that the Greeks stole Solun (Thessaloniki) from Bulgarians. Misirkov also has some...how should I say...some racist opinions about the Serbs. He states that Serbs are nothing but Shumadian shepherds and swine herdsmen, that Serbia was created by the swine trader Karageorge, that Serbia was the main culprit for the suffering of the Macedonian Bulgarians. He talks about some characteristic feature of the Serb swine herdsmen as "King killers" and traitors, and says that Serbs were suppressing and destroying a thousand years old Bulgarian culture in Macedonia. Misirkov says that the population of Macedonia is Bulgarian and as such it must live in a united Bulgarian land. He calls on the Russian government to stop the assimilation of the Macedonian Bulgarians by the Serbs. He talks about the Bulgarian cultural superiority in comparison with the Serbs, expresses many times his conviction that Macedonia must be united with Bulgaria, and is worried that there was a danger of most of Bulgarians leaving Macedonia. In other documents Misirkov argues against the theories of the Serb historian Cviich and his theses that the Slavic population of Macedonia was a "fluid mass of people without a national consciousness". Misirkov proves that the Macedonian population "is not a mass of pliable dough, as Cviich alleges, but rather a very thoroughly baked Bulgarian bread, which belongs to Bulgaria". In one of his letters from 1914 Misirkov states that the term "Macedonians" means only Macedonian Bulgarians and can not mean anything else. He accuses the Russian ambassador Rostkovsky for giving in to Serb propaganda and accepting the Serb theory that Macedonians were only Slavs, but not Bulgarians. Misirkov says that this theory is a Serb lie and that the Russian ambassador was somehow tricked by the Serbs to accept it. In all his letters Misirkov expresses his deep sorrow for the fate of Bulgaria, which was torn and plundered by her neighbors during the Balkan wars. ****************** (End of Terzioski citation. Narrator resumes his account) -Terzioski talked about all these things for more than 15 minutes. Most of the listeners looked as if they had suddenly frozen. In the end Terzioski simply thanked for the attention, said that all these facts were not entirely new, that some people had written before on this topic. He referred in particular to the writings of Cyrnushanov, who "researched well all the zigzags of Misirkov's ideas". He said that such data exists in Macedonia too, but the official historians think that such data must not be published. Without mentioning his name, he attacked Blazhe Ristovski, who had tried the previous day to dismiss the allusions of the Polish historian Jolanta Suiecka about Misirkov being a Bulgarian chauvinist. Ristovski had tried to brush away such thoughts by alleging that Misirkov expressed his Bulgarian nationalist ideas only after 1920, when he lived in Bulgaria: according to Ristovski at that time Misirkov was forced to conform to the political situation in Bulgaria, his articles were edited, etc. - All in all a heap of worthless artificial explanations. So Terzioski reminded the audience about these explanations of Ristosvki, and rhetorically asked the question: Who forced Misirkov to write such things in 1914, when he did not live in Bulgaria, and there was no one to "force him to conform to the political situation"? Without any applause, Terzioski left the stage and went to his seat. The audience had sunk in deep silence and gloom. =========================================== (End of participant's account) Well, as we can see Macedonians are finally discovering the big truth about their past and about who they are. I mean the real Macedonians, which according to Misirkov are Macedonian Bulgarians. As for the Fyrominas like Zhvko Apostolov(ski), they will never discover anything, simply because their mind is irreversibly damaged by that same Serbian propaganda about which Misirkov was talking a century ago... |

| Byzantine | Dear Shema, 1) I said CLEARLY and continue to state emphatically that a picture does not mean ANYTHING! Remember the Nazi Germans and their pictures portraying the German arian race and the evil Jew with the long pointy beard? Historical argument means exchanging historical ORIGINAL documents and basing your historical view on them.Your threat that time is running out and that I'll be banned from this ng is not my choice.What is my choice however is to express myself with the freedom that I'm used to.If opinions contrary to those popular in this ng are not welcomed or allowed that is your business.I'm nobody's slave! 2)Moron? If there is someone losing his temper here it's you.You are so wrapped up in your fanaticism that you can't distinguish between a Greek and a Bulgarian! I wonder how well you monitor the posts here that a person who has mentioned many times that he is Greek is misinterpreted as a Bulgarian. I will repeat that the points I made concern international political issues.While whoever chooses to do so can ignore them and hide in their cocoon,they will however not go away. So as far as my country Greece is concerned,my compatriots and I are always looking to make friends.(like the Serbs for example and now the Bulgarians,and the Romanians) I'm glad that your countrymen do not share your lack of tolerance for opposing opinions.I'm not sure you understand to what extremes the Greek state will reach to protect it's interests if your people decide to be as provocative as you on a diplomatic level. What cannot be resolved between us in this ng is a disapointing reflection of what we cannot resolve between our nations diplomatically. And what cannot be resolved by our nations diplomatically will be resolved by worse methods,be it economic or all out military war. We are not afraid of fighting the Turks whenever necesary, we certainly will not back off countries many times smaller. So in closing I will offer you a more realistic choice that you will have to make. Consider yourself as a reresentative of your people and me a representative of mine.Do you want me to interpret your intentions as hostile? Do you realise what would be the results of your actions if you had as much power over your country as you do in this ng? Diplomacy or War? Power carries resposibilites,try to be as tolerant with those weaker than you as you would want others stronger than you to be tolerant of your opinions. Perhaps you might want to reconsider your statements below with a more civilized attitude,or you might want to continue living in your own little world. regards, Byzantine Moron, get your stuff straight. If you want to stay on this forum answer the questions approprietly and do not circumvent the issues to create anger. I showed you that the CIA site states that Bulgarians are a turkish tribe.

| DJ_SHEMA | Byz I know your kind well enough to know your intentions. I am not losing my temper, but I will not tolerate winding up the visitors on this forum. Kindly avoiding the questions asked, while at the same time provoking with additional rubish will not be tolerated here. Instead of giving me a lesson on etique, why don't you answer the questions. I don't dislike greeks as long as they recognize that I am Macedonian and my country name is Macedonia If you have problems with these issues than I will dislike you. I ve had greek friends, but the abovementioned issues were fully understood by my "friends". I don't hate people just because of their origin, by I will dispise them if they do not recognize my origin and herritage. I am not a representative of my country, so no need for generalization. The sample of Macedonians on this forum is few thousands, so you can draw your own conclusions. I am not a fanatic, but a person with low treshold for scum. You, and few bulgarians on here are guests on this forum and should observe the rules, which state clearly no insults, personal nor national. As long as that is observed, than we can discuss historical issues. |

Dear Thunder,
Things,especially in the Balkans are not so easy.I think it is artificial to start any discussion from the seventh cetury onwards.
I've extracted these events from the book "Byzantine Society and State" (Stanford Press)
Events from 400 - 490AD (Waves of Germanic tribes moving south)
In Brief.
The big waves of tribes start desending onto the Balkan peninsula as early as 397AD when Alaric and his Visigoths who raid the Roman empire as far south as Korinth (southern Greece).The Emperor Eutropius makes a bargain and allows Alaric and the Visigoths to settle in "Epirus Nova" (What is now northwestern Greece and Albania).
In 442AD Rome loses to Attila the Hun and gives him free passage to all teritories within a five day march of the Danube.
In 452AD Attila the Hun dies.Some of his Hunic tribes leave,some settle north of the Danube (current Romania)
In 471AD emperor Leo loses to the Germanic tribes and gives them the following territories to settle in:
a)Northern Ostrogoths in Macedonia north of the "Via Egnatia",and as far east as current Veliko Tarnovo(central Bulgaria)
b)Strabo's Ostrogoths are settled in Thrace (Veliko Tarnovo to Danube to Varna)
In 488 Theodoric Ostrogoths (one of the tribes that had been traveling with the Strabo Ostrogoths are given Dalmatia and move from Thrace to what is today Croatia.
Doesn't this stuff get you dizzy with all the settlement and waves of Germanics comming south?
Wave 2,the Huns
It's only the beggining because as of 493AD a new tribe dominates the left over Huns north of the Danube called the Bulgars and leading the Huns raid Thrace comming from the Danube where they had settled since the victory of Attila in 442AD
From 493 - 540AD the Bulgars continiously raid Illiricum,Macedonia,and Thrace.
(540-544 Bubonic Plague hits the empire)
Wave 3: The Slavs
From 547 - 558 the Slavs are raiding southwards to Skup (Roman Garison-town which has by this period is renamed Justiniana Prima (since it was the birth place of emperor Justinian.
From 558 -585 the eastern Roman legions are swamped by attacks from all directions North (Balkans),East (Asia)etc,from Kostigur Huns,Bulgars,Slavs,Avars,etc.,but pay more attention to the tribes attacking from the east in Asia.
When in 585AD the Slavs attack the second biggest port in the eastern empire (Thessaloniki)they begin to organize a massive campaign in the Balkans.
In 593 the legions move to the Balkans and start a campaign which defeats all the tribes in the region so that by 602AD they regain rule of the lost territories.
This is by no means a permanent arrangement as you can understand by the above,the empire will lose and regain lands over and over again.What is a given however is that the empire starts looking as follows:
The Latin speaking part of the Byzantine empire remains at times barricaded within fortified walls in the norther cities of the Balkans such as Dyrachium with mixed Greek and Latin speaking population,(Currently Durres in Albania),Skup (currently Skopje)totaly latin speaking,Serdica (Currently Sofia),Philipoupolis with a mixed Greek and Latin population (currently Plovdiv),and Anchialos (on the black sea mostly Greek speaking port.
These were the cities that made up the northern border of the Byzantine empire located at a distance from the Via Egnatia as a first line of defense and trade posts.
Why go through all this history? Because it's important to note that the only cities which were able to survive the influx of these nomadic tribes where the ones very close to the Via Egnatia.This was the most important trade corridor (being rebuilt as we speak with the same name)which linked Rome to Konstantinople by land and reached as far east as the Persian empire.
By the sixth century there is a sense of community but along two levels:
1)citizenship:All ancient peoples living in the empire considered themselves and differeciated themselves on the lines that they were roman citizens,where as the barbarians could not aquire this right.
2)nationality:This category was more linguistic than anything else.All latin speaking citizens considered themselves the original Romans,all eastern citizens mostly Greek speaking (but desended from both Greeks,Armenians,and northern Arabs,who considered themselves older Christian nations than the latin Romans.The Catholic and Orthodox church were separated along the same linguistic lines,Latin speaking = Catholic,Greek speaking = Orthodox.
As for the geographical region of Macedonia it did not stay the same throughout the Roman and Later Byzantine empire.For example after the reforms of the emperor Diocletion the borders of the provinces changed and kept on changing depending on demographics and potential tax collection.Furthermore if you where close to the emperor your province could very well incorporate parts of another and so on and so forth.As such people began associating more with their local city which was the capital and administrative center than any wider regional perceptions.Don't forget every city had it's own Siants,traditions,holidays etc.
This goes back to the times of the apostels of Christ St.Peter and St.Paul which send epistles to the: Berians,Romans,Ephesians,Corinthians,Thessalonians, etc.(the identity based on urban communities had already started.
Furthermore by the 6th century "Roman citizens" lived in or very close to cities with fortified walls.The remaining nomadic element lived further away where they dealt with animal herding and trade with the cities.So in the same province you had Beroians for example who lived close to the city and others who had a tribal identity but lived in the same exact region.But with time as the nomads dominate in numbers the romans leave to bigger urban centers and the nomads stay behind where they later are either assimilated or assimilate the older tribes already in existence.You must keep in mind that the ancient peoples who had religious traditions a written language and a complex culture would not marry a tribesman so as to assimilate,so wherever roman citizens were too few they would just leave.
Such was the case of both Skup/Justinian Prima, and Stobi.
You want to look for real Macedonians you'd be better off looking for them in Thesaloniki,Ephesus,Ikonio,and especially Alexandria,where by the sixth century they call themselves Romans.
best regards,
Byzantine

| Byzantine | Dear Dejan
I'm going to continue managing companies and using most people of your generation as menial workers in low income positions.Your (generation's) lack of global orientation is spectacular and saddening at the same time.
As for my country,I specified before and I will again that I'm Greek.So whatever comments you have about Bulgaria is your right but try to differentiate between Bulgarian history and my own country's.If you know the difference.
Any time you want to engage in a mature historical convesation feel free.Otherwise I cannot respond to comments that bare no relation to what I say.Why don't you read some comments from DJ Shema and Thunder,perhaps you will at least be exposed to some kind of interest in your own country's and nation's history.
Later,
Byzantine

| marko_polog | Why the Macedonians and Bulgarians are Two Separate Nations? 1. The roots of the Macedonians are in ancient Macedonia in Europe since 8th century BC, while the roots of the Bulgarians are in the Turko-Morgilic Bulgars who came to Europe from Asia in the 7th century AD. While the Bulgars are intruders in the Balkans, the Macedonians had preserved their name through the centuries and evidence shows that they have always associated themselves with the ancient Macedonians. 2. When the Macedonian king Alexander the Great (336-323 BC) conquered Asia, he too conquered ancient Bulgaria. In the writings of the ancient historian Pseudo-Calisthenes there is a list of the nations that the Macedonians conquered and the Bulgars are on that list along with the Greeks, Egyptians, Persians, and the other conquered nations. 3. When Rome conquered the Balkans, Macedonia and its eastern neighbor Thrace became part of the Roman Empire. In the late 4th century AD with the split of the Roman Empire, Macedonia and Thrace became part of the East Roman (or Byzantine) Empire. 4. In the 6th century the Slavs invaded the Balkans including Macedonia and Thrace and settled among the ancient Macedonians and Thracians. 5. In the 7th century the Turko-Mongolic Bulgars for a very first time entered Europe from their original Asian home, invaded Thrace, and subdued the Thracians and Slavs. Since this moment the mix between the Bulgar intruders, Thracians, and Slavs will result in the formation of the modern Bulgarian nation. 6. The Bulgars also attacked Macedonia, Epirus, Serbia, conquered parts of these lands, and held them for some time but never permanently. Modern Bulgarian historiography claims that the Bulgar conquest of parts of Macedonia transformed the Macedonians and the Slavs in Macedonia into Bulgarians. The claim is quite ridiculous and easily dismissed for the following main reasons: a) There is NO recorded settlement of Bulgars in Macedonia as there is recorded the settlement of the Slavs among the Macedonians, or as is recorded the settlement of Bulgars among the Thracians and Slavs in Thrace. b) The Bulgar intrusion into Macedonia was nothing but a temporary conquest by foreign armies. Because it was a temporary conquest it is impossible to imagine that the Macedonians suddenly "evolved" into Bulgarians. The case is identical with Serbia since the Bulgarian armies also conquered that country. The Serbians as we know did not turn into Bulgarians either. Likewise the conquest of Russia of the Caucasus countries did not turn these people into Russians despite both of centuries of occupation and Russian settlements among the natives. c) The Romans held Macedonia for more then 12 centuries and yet the Macedonians continued to be mentioned as nation in Byzantine sources, both before and after the Bulgarian conquest. Thus, since the Romans did not turn the Macedonians into Romans after 12 centuries it is more then impossible that the Bulgarians could have turned them into Bulgarians after holding parts of that land over a miniscule period of time. 7. Modern Bulgarian historiography also claims that the apostle brothers St. Cyril and Methodius from the 10th century, who came from the largest Macedonian city Salonica were Bulgarians. However such claim is also impossible since Salonica was never taken by the Bulgarians. The city obviously kept its original Macedonian population since Byzantine records of those times call it "the largest city of the Macedonians". Thus, Cyril and Methodius could not be anything else but Macedonians. Cyril and Methodius' father was an important Macedonian in Salonica. It is simply impossible that he or his sons even looked like the typical Turko-Mongolic Bulgarians from the 11th century. 8. Modern Bulgarian historiography denies that the modern Macedonians are descendents of the ancient Macedonians, but ironically it recognizes that the modern Bulgarians are descendents of the ancient Thracians. Right away they contradict themselves since it is impossible to imagine that the Thracians existed in the 7th century when the Bulgars settled among them, while the ancient Macedonians somehow disappeared a century earlier when the Slavs settled Macedonia. The fact that the Macedonians are mentioned as nation and Slavs are mentioned as living side by side by them in Macedonia in the following centuries by the Byzantine historians is proof that the Macedonians did not mysteriously cease to exist. It also proves that the modern Bulgarian historians are attempting to falsify the history of the Macedonian nation to their likes, although unsuccessfully. 9. The Turks entered Europe in the 14th century with the help of the Turko-Mongolic Bulgars conquered the Balkan countries, including Macedonia and Thrace. 10. After centuries of ruthless oppression, the Balkan peoples lost a clear ethnic identification. The Greeks called themselves Romanoi, the Bulgarians called themselves Serbs, Greeks and Bulgars, while the Macedonians called themselves Christians, Bulgarians, Slavs, but also Macedonians. There are Russian, Austrian, German, English sources since the 15th centuries which mention the existence of the Macedonians among their neighbors Serbians, Greeks, and Bulgarians. Furthermore written records show that Macedonians claimed a lineage from Alexander the Great and the ancient Macedonians. 11. In the 19th century when nationalism swept the Balkans and the Greek and Bulgarians strove to develop their own Greek and Bulgarian nationality, so did the Macedonians strove to develop their own Macedonian nationality and consciousness. More and more cases are reported where the Macedonians claimed a distinct nationality as direct descendents of the ancient Macedonians and Alexander the Great. The Macedonian rebellions against the Turks in the 19th century, the deeds of the Macedonian intellectuals, and the Macedonian folk and literature have brought up this strong national awakening. 12. Having open appetite to Macedonian land, Bulgaria did everything to suppress the development of the Macedonian national awakening and many Macedonians who fought against the Turks and sought refuge ended up in Bulgarian prisons, or were betrayed and surrendered to the Turks. Such examples were Alexander of Ohrid, father Theodosie of Skopje who attempted to form an independent Macedonian church, Gotse Delchev, Jane Sandanski, Gjorche Petrov, and countless others. 13. That the Bulgarians tried everything to falsify the history of the Macedonians we find proof in the recent discovery of a stone inscription which states that the Macedonians of the 10th century and Czar Samoil were Bulgarians. However, the stone was examined by the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in Sofia and its director himself declared that the inscription was a 19th century Bulgarian fabrication. Thus we have obtained a clear proof that the Bulgarians have been falsifying the history of the Macedonians for more then a century. If Tsar Samoil was indeed a "Bulgarian", there would have been no need to use falsifications in order to show that. It is obvious that the falsifiers were aware that that neither Samoil nor the Macedonians were Bulgarian and with that in mind they created the forgery. Needless to say, modern historiography calls the Bulgarian claims that Samoil was a Bulgarian - absurd. 14. Yet the Bulgarians also contradict themselves in their claim that the Macedonians were "Bulgarians". There are Bulgarian historians like Draganov and Slaveykov, who even since the 19th century admitted that the Macedonians were not Bulgarians but a distinct nation with its own language, culture, and ethnicity. 15. In 1913 Bulgaria, and her allies Serbia and Greece, with the help of more then 100,000 Macedonians who fought along these three armies, drove the Turks out of Macedonia, but Macedonia did not gain its freedom. Instead, the Balkan countries partitioned Macedonia among themselves and Bulgaria occupied 13% of the whole territory, called Pirin Macedonia. 16. Bulgaria now begun an open assimilatory politics against the Macedonians, just like Greece did in Aegean Macedonia, and proclaimed that the Macedonians of Pirin are Bulgarians. Any opposition was brutally suppressed. 17. After helping the Turks to occupy the Balkans in the 14th century, the Bulgarians again sided with the dark side in World War II (1941-1945). As fascist allies of Hitler, the Bulgarian armies occupied the previously occupied Greek and Serbian parts of Macedonia. 18. But the Macedonians defeated the Bulgarian fascist troops and after the war, the government of Bulgaria on August 9, 1946 officially recognized the Macedonian nation and the right of the Pirin part of Macedonia to be attached to the People’s Republic of Macedonia. 19. The Macedonians in Bulgaria exist as separate nationality on all Bulgarian censuses after the end of World War II. The demography data from 1946 revealed that the majority of the population in the Pirin part of Macedonia declared itself as Macedonian in a free census. A period of cultural autonomy and affirmation of the Macedonian national and cultural values had begun. The Macedonian literary language and the national history have been introduced into the educational process. Almost 32,000 pupils were included into the teaching of Macedonian. In 1947 in Gorna Djumaja (Blagoevgrad nowadays) the first Macedonian bookstore and reading room were opened, as well as the Regional Macedonian National Theater. The newspapers in Macedonian such as "Pirinsko delo", "Nova Makedonija", "Mlad Borec" etc. were also published. Literary circles and cultural and artistic associations were founded contributing to the spreading of the Macedonian culture. In the Bulgarian census of 1956, the majority of the population of Pirin again declared itself Macedonian. 20. However, since 1956 Bulgaria has altered her attitude, negating again the existence of the Macedonian nation and forbidding the free expression of Macedonian nationality and language. The idea was enforced and as result, in the census of 1965, the number of Macedonians suddenly dropped to only 8,750 and in the district of Blagoevgrad which previously had the highest percentage of Macedonians, it was "mysteriously" less than 1%. Yet the Macedonians in Bulgaria begun organizing themselves and in 1989, United Macedonian Organization - Ilinden (OMO Ilinden) was formed, demanding cultural and national autonomy for the Macedonians in Pirin. 21. Like Greece, Bulgaria stands accused by the international human rights organizations Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International for denying the Macedonians of Pirin their basic human rights to identify themselves as Macedonians. Nevertheless it is recognized that the Macedonians exist in Bulgaria with their own national consciousness and consist a sizable minority. They organize themselves despite the pressures and intimidation of the Bulgarian police, and continue to peacefully demand their rights which the Bulgarians stripped them off since their army took over Pirin Macedonia in 1913. 22. The Bulgarians and the Macedonians also defer in physical appearance. The typical Mongolic features among the modern Bulgarians are absent among the Macedonians. The ancient Bulgar personal names still common today among the modern Bulgarians are absent among the Macedonians. The Bulgarian and Macedonian folklore and music are much different and none of the Bulgarian khans or other rulers have ever been celebrated among the Macedonians. In contrast stories about the Macedonian kings Alexander the Great and Philip II, and the Macedonian Slav Czar Samoil dominate the Macedonian folklore, music, and dance. Finally, the fact that the Bulgarians have kept their ancient Asiatic name, and the Macedonians have kept their ancient European name speaks clearly that they are aware of the fact they are two different nations with two different ethnic roots. |
| marko_polog | Bulgarian Falsification of Macedonian History The Stone Inscriptions Case Macedonia was partitioned after the Balkan Wars in 1913 among Greece, Serbia, Bulgaria, and Albania. Bulgaria took the Pirin part of the country and renamed the Macedonians into "Bulgarians", and since had engaged in a politics of oppression. But the Bulgarian government had attempted to falsify the history of Macedonia and present the Macedonians as "Bulgarians", even long before it conquered Pirin Macedonia. Below is example which dates from the 19th century. 1. The Voden Inscription During September 1997 a Greek national with "Bulgarian identity" from Voden named Stoidis appeared in Sofia at the National Historical Museum and declared to the Director Bozidar Dimitrov that he has in his possession a stone inscription found in Voden (Edessa) during the reconstruction of a local church. The Director declared the inscription a fake made by Bulgarian nationalists in the 19th Century. Apparently the whole story was published in the Bulgarian daily Kontinent on "02.10.1997." This is the Bulgarian fabricated stone inscription by "Tsar Samuil" found in Voden (Edessa), Greece. Rough translation into English of the text on the fake stone: "In the city of Voden, I Samuil, faithful to Christ, Emperor of the Bulgars and Romans, Godsent emperor of all lands from Raska to Macedonia, Thessaly and Greece, nephew of the old Shishman who was Khan of the inhabitants of Trnovo, built this prayer home, to exist forever. The foundation were laid in the epoch of Jeremiah, who was the first Christian in Melnik. This temple was built for the sins and saving of the Bulgars from damned Satan, who comes from Constantinople. This temple was finished during the 14th year of my rule with the help of monk Gavril, who is the spiritial shepherd of the inhabitants of Meglen. Written during year 6497 from the foundation of the world (989 A.D), 5th Indiction." http://www.gate.net/~mango/Bulgarian_falsification.html 2. Gotse Delchev As we can see the Bulgarians had engaged in falsification of the Macedonian history for over a century, in order to justify their "historical" claim on the Macedonian land. The stone inscription from the 19th century was manufactured precisely with that intend. Ironically, the Sofia National Historical Museum revealed the truth. The Bulgarian falsification of Macedonian history is still desperately attempting to present the Macedonians as Bulgarians. Numerous alleged letters of the Macedonian revolutionaries from the late 19th and early 20th century (including Goce Delchev) have been "discovered" by the Bulgarian historians where the Macedonian revolutionaries explicitly refer to themselves as "Bulgarians". One look at the inscription above and it is clear that the Bulgarians are also manufacturing and falsifying these alleged letters of the Macedonian revolutionaries. After all, the Macedonian revolutionaries fought for independent Macedonia and the motto of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization (VMRO) was "Macedonia for the Macedonians". When it comes to Goce Delchev, the Bulgarians can not falsify his most famous thought which came before his death and the partition of Macedonia: "Macedonia has its own interests and its own politics which belong to the Macedonians. The one who works for joining of Macedonia to Bulgaria, Greece, or Serbia, can consider himself as a good Bulgarian, Greek, or Serb, but not as good Macedonian" (Gotse Delchev). The Macedonian newspaper "Narodna Volja", published by the ethnic Macedonians in Pirin Macedonia always puts Goce's words on its front page, right below his picture. If the Bulgarians wish to believe that the Macedonians are "Bulgarians", they should also know that the Macedonians in Bulgaria have not subscribed to the 100 year old Bulgarian falsification. |
| n/a | Ok, just show me a map or any statistics from the end of the 19th or begining of the 20nd century(reliable) that proves a Macedonian "nation" existed and lived on today's territory of Macedonias (Aegean, Pirin and Vardar) PS: If you want I could show you a lot of statistics proving the nation living in this territory was not MAcedonian, nor Greek, nor Serbian BUT BULGARIAN. |

| russian | Macedonian people are NOT of Bulgarian nationality because they speak different languages. Bulgarian as a matter of fact is not purely Slavic language. It originated somewhere between Pamir mountains and Volga river, slashed through densely populated Slavic region, and was stopped and reworked by Ellinic language of Southern Macedonia. Bulgars acquired Slavic wordbase, Greek syntax and morphology (verb tenses, articles et cet.) but deep inside they all have remained the same old wild tribe of Turco-Uiguric people from Western Siberia. Nothing you can do about (but annex Macedonia!) Russian Proslava |
| OooOo | russian AMIN! |
| russian | The truth is that nobody likes the truth especially a bitter one. Why you Bulgarians are so ashamed of your great Uiguro-Turkic past? Look at those greats of your shared past - Ghenghiz Khan, Suleiman the Great, Attillah the Gun. Consider this - being a part of a great Tartar-Bulgar community is not a handicap. And I really didn't mean to offend you. Ok. If you're not originated from Tartars, and you are not of Slavic ancestry, either. Then who are you? Jews? Greeks? Romans? Speak up, please. Very yours, Russian Proslava. |

| tnt | I’ve been reading the comments on this forum and the only think i see is pure, blind hate. History is a complicated thing. Everyone takes the 25% that are undeniable truth, because it comes from actual sources, and then mixes it with politics. In order for all historians to agree on a claim, they need something called evidence because “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence”. Macedonia is a new country. Even if we take all that you claim for true, the country Macedonia did not exist for last 600 years. It is common for young countries to use history in order to unify their population. Make them more proud and patriotic. As examples you can look at Albania and Croatia. The population of both countries is extremely patriotically. Your politics use history to make you proud and patriotic. According to you , everyone around you stole something from you. You take all the great figures in history and you claim they are Macedonians. Well in addition I can claim that Christopher collumb and Amerigo Vespucci were also Macedonians and that Alaska was once Macedonian territory. Its very easy to claim, but let me repeat myself “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence”. My mother and my grand parents are from Pirin Macedonia. If you tell them that they have something to do with Macedonian state they will laugh their ass off. It would be the same if I claim that because I was born in sofia I am member of shopian population. In the 1980 Serbian propaganda claimed that spopians are different population from other Bulgarians and they should have country of their own. Serbians believed in that and just 20 years later this claim sounds ridiculous even for Serbians. I don’t know why you decided that Bulgaria is hated around the world! Maybe you compare Bulgaria to Albania. Well let me give you a simple example. The above joke, from user “highlander” is very funny to you because someone stabs someone else in the back. Moreover, he is not man enough to look him in the face and do whatever he attends. Well friend, that is something very typical for the Albanians. There all culture is based on that. So don’t make parallels between Bulgarians and Albanians because i am not like this all people i know are not like this too. Indeed, you have more similarities to Albanians than i do so making parallels is totally improper. And as conclusion, if Bulgaria is so bad and hated country, tell me then why in 2003 it was visited by 228 611 Macedonian tourists? (http://www.news.bg/article.php?cid=20&pid=0&aid=135486) This statistic is only for people that stayed more than 5 days in Bulgaria for tourist reason. Nevertheless, Bulgarian universities are full with Macedonian students, but probably they really hate it and they stay there just to loose their time. |

Call yourself how you want - Macedonians, Tanganaikians or whatever, just dont deny that you are pure bulgarians with washed brains from the serbs during the years of being Yugoslavian province. I knew a few macedonians in person and one of them told me that he is succesor of Alexander the Macedonian!!![:D][:D][:D] I met him in England and he was so convinent in what he was saying, that all the english people believed him!!! I just stayed there unable to say anything....[V] Other say that Samuil is macedonian tzar (king)... So why then his enemy is called Byzantine emperor Basil Bulgaroctonus (in translation means Basil the killer of bulgarians) [url]http://www.britannica.com/eb/article?eu=13777[/url] shame on you if you deny the truth and say that even Encyclopedia Britannica is part of the bulgarian conspiracy and lying[:D][:D][:D] So, what kind of history you have in support to your assertion? Philip the macedonian, Alexander the macedonian (both greeks and lived in the 4th-century BC) and Samuil (bulgarian tzar 991-1014)[url]http://www.historymuseum.org/halls.php3?hall=6[/url] [url]http://travel.yahoo.com/p-travelguide-816056-bulgaria_the_first_bulgarian_kingdom-i[/url]????? What is between??? I cant tell you - ask your teachers in the schools who recreated the world history... And the next time you call us "hatted through the world", please, dont forget BROTHERS, that Bulgaria was the first country in the world to officially recognize the new born country of Macedonia back in the 1990's when you separated from Yugoslavia. Oh, and one more thing - when the shipters take the guns to wipe you out from the face of the world, dont be ashame - we will send you tanks and helicopters again. We will forgive you your nonsences little brothers[;)] I knew the moderators will delete my post or at best semi-litterated fanatical "macedonians" will answer to me in manner of Graf[xx(]...

There is no need to deny your ancestry traits. You have tartar blood in you and when ever you look into a mirror, a tartar looks back. Ashamed of his past, just like you! That's why you try and force it onto another nation. Tell me this, how many people in Bulgaria have blue/green eyes blonde hair and fair skin? Probably very small amount. But how many in Macedonia? More than triple the amount in 1000's in Bulgaria. Another thing....why did Clement come down to Ohrid to promote Christianity? He was familiar with the Macedonian dialect thus deciding to visit Ohrid, knowing it was Macedonia. Stop making up false history just because you lack in that area.

Disregarding this fact, the Serbian, Greek and Bulgarian governments, aiming to extend their frontiers into Macedonians territory, spare no means and exterminate the Macedonians who refuse to call themselves Greeks, Serbs and Bulgarians...The Macedonian people will not reconcile themselves either with those who aspire to deprive them of their language, customs and the natural desire to be free masters of their own house.

| Pavel_Petrov | I want to say some words about Bulgarians and Bulgars just to educate some of the "Macedonians" here. The Bulgars had a state in the middle of 7th century in the lands of south Russia and parts of Ukraine. After the Hazar attacks they divided in several fractions. One fraction settled in north Russia. This fraction is nowadays bolgars or the other name tatars. They adopted the muslim religion and they really look like mongols. Other fraction settled in Italy near Neapol. They were mixed with the local population. Everyone knows the jewelry BULGARI, right? Other fraction settled in Moravia.(nowadays Slovenia,Poland and so on) They too mixed with the local population. Other fraction was lost in western Europe.There is almost no info about those bulgars. And the fraction that we are interested in is the part of Bulgars that were lead by Asparuch. They settled in Balkans and mixed with the local population of Slavs and thus formed the Bulgarians. Bulgarians are slavs. They do not look like mongols.There are only about 20 bulgar words left in modern Bulgarian. So FINALLY . Bulgarians are Slavs.Bulgarians are NOT Tatars or Mongols. Now some more info. You say that people in Pirin call themselves Macedonians. That's true. They live in Macedonia and they are Macedonians just like People that live in Sofia call themselves Shopi. And People living in Dobrudja call themselves Dobrudjanci. The same is valid for all other Bulgarian regions. They are all Bulgarians. That's all. Let's stop with all other stupid suggestions. Now I would just like to ask: How is this possible to say that modern Macedonians are successors of Alexander The Great? Alexsander could be greek or whatever, but he was NOT Slav. Modern Macedonians are Slavs.They speak SLav language that's 100% sure. I'd stop for now.Dont want to say more about the language because there's such topic in the forum. Please do not ban me because I can register again and post again. You won't stop me. This is discussion right? I have the right to post what I think. |
| dimo2 | @Highlander: I am bulgarian. And you seems to be an idiot or 13-years old child. Also decide who you want to be - putting macedonian flag for your avatar and calling yourself Highlander which means
"a native of the Highlands of Scotland " [url]http://www.hyperdictionary.com/dictionary/highlander[/url]....
After tousends of words and sugestions , backed up with proofs from me, the only thing you can say is "Äèìî, òè òàòàð ëè ñè?"... I refuse to argue with idiots like you, becose you will drag me down to your level and beat me with experience[:D].
@Dejan: First, thanks for the common sence in your reply. This is the way a civilized dialogue, which purpose is to reveal the truth is meant to be.
And about your post:
1. Calling me a kazahstanian is equal to calling you a greek, becose your greatest hero in the history was Alexander the Great, and he is greek - speaking greek language and looking like greek [img]http://www.newgenevacenter.org/portrait/alexander1.jpg[/img]- check for yourself if you are from these few people in the world which dont know this [url]http://www.newgenevacenter.org/biography/alexander2.htm[/url]
From other side, yes, my great great great great ....parents was a Bulgarians from the central Asia - noone can deny it - our country is called after them:) But they was the warlike rulling class which organized the blond slavs to fight against the Byzantines. for 200-300 years nothing left from the language or culture of the protobulgars, melted in the ocean of slavs...Bulgaria is slavonic country from more than 1000 yars "...Armed with the Cyrillic alphabet, Bulgaria became the main centre of Slavonic culture in Europe. The "golden age" of literature and arts coincided with the reign of Tsar Simeon (893–927)..."[url]http://travel.yahoo.com/p-travelguide-816056-bulgaria_the_first_bulgarian_kingdom-i[/url]
For the Bazil Bulgaroctonus it is historycally clear that he is called this way for slaying the bulgarian army of the bulgarian tzar Samuil. Also historycally clear is that Samuil was bulgarian tzar quote:[url]http://www.historymuseum.org/halls.php3?hall=6[/url] 2. quote:... your believings are wrong - and not only for this[;)]- yes, we are the first country - check again for yourself: quote:[url]http://www.eab-berlin.de/projekte/wahl_makedonienen.htm[/url] 3.Yes, it was rude to mention the shiptars. But this was only to make you, the ungrateful, remember that Bulgaria supported you again with weapons quote:[url]http://www.realitymacedonia.org.mk/web/news_page.asp?nid=2722[/url] But think a little bit - Bulgaria is an island of ethnic peace. quote:[url]http://www.nato.int/docu/speech/2004/s040402h.htm[/url] Maybe Macedonia is full of racist idots which made an ethnic civil war 5 years after the creation of the country:) And is easy for you to call me "Racist idiot" from the safety of 15000 km away from the muslims on the Balkans somewhere in Australia on the other side of the world. 4.No. I am not lucky that turkish empire left our country larger... Turkey was completely defeated by the Christian coalition made from Russians, Romanians, Finlands and Bulgarians. Turkey was forced to retreat from our lands. After this at the Paris conference the great westenr powers separated Bulgaria on 3 parts. But shortly after this Bulgaria united. No more history lessons on that.[;)] And before 20 years, noone was heard of the country Macedonia from tousends years - since the Alexander (remember he is greek). 5.I dont deny the history[:)] - you deny it. 6.I dont know how much people are blue- eyed in Macedonia... I n fact I knew few and they are all dark - eyed/haired. I saw also your ex president [img]http://faq.macedonia.org/images/boris.trajkovski.jpg[/img] God forgives him, he is also dark- eyed and haired. Here is a picture of our president Georgi Parvanov [img]http://www.suaramerdeka.com/harian/0111/20/sm10320.jpg[/img]. I bet you can see the difference. Other comparision - miss Macedonia on the right [img]http://www.globalbeauties.com/gb/international/2002/images/mi0062.jpg[/img] and miss Bulgaria [img]http://www.prensa.com/especial/2003/miss/fotos/Bulgaria.jpg[/img] [img]http://123india.santabanta.com/gallery1.asp?mid1=6300[/img] I know this is not very academic way of finding the truth,but is something everyone can see. If you can, show me a proofs how much Macedonians are with blue eyes and how much Bulgarians ... 7.You are maybe right about something here - Kliment knew the macedonian dialect the same way the bulgarians living in the region Mecedonia knew it. Its just a dialect. And not right about the second part of your opinion - Kliment did not have anything to do with Christianity, exept he was a crhistian. All Kliment done there in Ohrid was to finish the new cyrilic alphabet and to make a school there. quote: quote:[url]http://travel.yahoo.com/p-travelguide-816056-bulgaria_the_first_bulgarian_kingdom-i[/url] And the christianity in these lands was set by the Bulgarian khan Boris quote:(same source) I think you are the one that lack in history, dear Deian and every normal person will tell you this if spend the time to read all we said to each other. And no, you dont look like tartar... but I dont know any tartars to make comparision. Stay with peace Dejan ( quote:[url]http://www.cedarseed.com/slavicnames.txt[/url] |
| Ceki | quote:How hypocrite, you have a right to say that, and we cant say Macedonia is slavonic country from more than 1500 years??? And now an interesting thought from a greek visitor of this forum: "I think that the Bulgarian nation is actually a paradoxical statement.The original Volga tribe was to begin with, a nomadic turkic tribe.Then they sweep up all the left over hunic tribes while north of the Danube.The Bulgar federation of tribes attack Byzantium.Just from this period you can say that the Bulgar "culture" still in infant stage is being diluted with other Hunic tribes. fast forward................. It is clear during the overthrow of the Boyars that the slavs without fighting the Bulgars in a major military conflict had actually assimilated them into their society.The wars between the Bulgars and the Byzantines were on and off.At times the Byzantines fought them at times bribed them.In the end Byzantium conquered the Bulgars.But the Bulgars that the Byzantines first met and the ones they finally defeated had nothing or in any case, very little in common. As for the Bulgarians of today there seems to be a an odd mismatch of self perception.A nation which has a slavic language,and cultural make up (Bulgarians percieve themselves as slavs and Bulgars simultaneously?!?)see their founders in Han Asparuh and Han Omurtag. I think it is more accurate to say that whatever one considers truly "Bulgarian"(as in Bulgar) culture,or nation,etc, went extinct and recieved it's deathblow soon after the overthrow of the Boyars. When centuries later Samuil declares himself "King of the Bulgars",I would argue that he was refering (influenced by the Byzantine understanding)to himself as King of those who lived in the lands percieved as Bugarian (the lands not the people),but in truth if one is to compare Samuil and Han Asparuh one would quickly run out of common identifying caracteristics." I really wouldnt start with blue eyes, brown hairs, black hairs, and all that shit. If you want to form a nation, a process that last for centurys and if a nation lays on balkans, a transitive region, you cant expect them to look the same. quote:Which town was called south slavonic jerusalem? Oh yeah it was Ohrid. And Cyrily and Methody were from Solun, a city that always was Macedonian. quote:Hahahaha, that was ... Macedonia was always a name for this place. Only the inhabitants were named after the state that ruled them. Bulgarians by bulgarians, serbians by serbians, romanians by romanians(byzantine), and today greeks by greeks. But the name Macedonia was always well known[;)] quote:Well thank you for enlightenig us by travel.yahoo.com pages[:)] |
| Misirkov | Dimo: What is the point of your post?! Do you realize how incredibly stupid you appear, your historical "babi i zhabi" nothwithstanding, in trying to "argue" that we Macedonians are not what we are? Calling you "Kazakh" is slightly inacurate; Dejan should have called you Chuvash or Tatar, wihch ARE Bulgar peoples that actually speak bulgrian languages. Perhaps you have heard of Mishars as well? These are your brothers? Think about it. You may well realize that you have macedonian roots and only carry a POLITICAL name "Bulgarian". Calling us Greek is plain ridiculous! Alexander the Great, who spoke Macedonian as his native language -- as shown by Quintus Rufus -- was and is considered by the science of history as Macedonian. That is beyond discussion in historical circles, it is a historical fact!!! Virtually every ancient and modern historian agrees on this point. Even Bulgarian historians acknowledge this fact such as Ganco Cenov for example. So wake up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "From other side, yes, my great great great great ....parents was a Bulgarians from the central Asia - noone can deny it - our country is called after them." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I am glad you realize that your country is named after the turko-mongol Bulgars -- asiatic people that have nothing to do with us Macedonians! Do you think all the people living in the lands which the Bulgars enslaved were Bulgarians??? Bulgarian historiography says so. It claims that everybody TURNED ETHNICALLY into Bulgarian once the Bulgar came to ravage the land and acepted Christianity! Do you realize how crazy that position is??? And how utterly lunatic is what follows from it: namely that everything else, the language, the alphabet(s), people,s lands, etc. is all bulgarian. And finally, since your claim that your granddaddy came to the Balkans from Bulgariastan/Tatarstan as nomadic invader, have you considered getting back to your fatherland in Central Asia??? Contrary to you, our grandfathers were from Macedonia and we consider it our fatherland that has nothing to do with ATILA -- the "grandfather of the Bulgars" (as is stated in the "Imenik na B'lgarskite Hanove" from the 8th century). True, Bulgaria was the first country to recognize Macedonia and supported Macedonia with weapons; we were very thankful for that. But Bulgaria has continued to play the Balkan power games and still denies the existence of the Macedonian people and language -- i.e. it continues to be a Greek policy instrument -- and that is not a genuinely friendly behavior. Ottoman Turkey WAS forced to retreat from our lands, also thanks to over hundred thousand Macedonian fighers (the Sandanski cheta for example fought independently, while others were drafted in neighboring armies). But then some of those lands such as Macedonia were quite brutally parttitioned by the neighbors -- the result of which is YOU, among other things. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For decades now Bulgaria has been a stabilizing factor and unique example of ethnic peace and religious tolerance in the Balkans and South East Europe ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For decades Bulgaria has been one of the most repressive countries. Lest you forget discrimination against Turks and Macedonians? If NATO or whatever official website you quoted says that, it is to placate your hungry-for-glory heads for its purposes in the Balkans. -------------------------------------------------------------------- If you can, show me a proofs how much Macedonians are with blue eyes and how much Bulgarians ... --------------------------------------------------------------------- My friend, we don't have to show you or prove anything; our existence is the final "proof". |
| Misirkov | ZAKLUCOKOT NA RILSKIOT KONGRES NA BMPO OD 1905 g.: "SITE PROJAVI VO DELATA I POSTAPKITE NA EGZARHIJATA I NEJZINITE ORGANI, KOI SE NASOCENI VO DUHOT NA BUGARSKIOT NACIONALIZAM, ORGANIZACIJATA GI SMETA ZA PAKOSNI NA NEJZINITE CELI I IM SE SPROTIVSTAVUVA." Ova sleduva po pretrpeniot neuspeh vo Ilindenskoto vostanie, so ne mala uloga na Bugarija vo toa, koga VMRO se nasla vo vonredno teski uslovi. Egzarhijata uste povekje se stremela da ja dounisti VMRO. Neuspehot znacelo i presmetuvanje so vrhovistite, a ogorceni od stavot na Egzarhijata, povtorno pocnale da ja zasiluvaat idejata za sozdavanje samostojna makedonska crkva. Sogleduvajkji go raspolozenieto na makedonskiot narod, a da se socuva status-kvoto vo Makedonija, taa ideja ja poddrzale togas i Rusija i Avrsto-Ungarija. Togas bil napraven zaednicki plan za obnova na Ohridskata Arhiepiskopija kako AVTOKEFALNA MAKEDONSKA CRKVA, na celo so patrijarh, dodeka za ucilistata i administracijata se predviduvalo voveduvanje na MAKEDONSKI JAZIK. Opasnosta od obnovuvanje na Ohridskata Arhiepiskopija osobeno ja pocuvstvuvala Egzarhijata koga Misirkov ja artikuliral voljata na makedonskiot narod vo "Za Makedonckite raboti." Kolku bile isplaseni za svoite pozicii se gleda i od akciite sto gi prevzel EGZARHOT VO OBIKOLKA NA NEKOI PRESTOLNINI ZA DA BI SE DOOBJASNILA EGZARHISKATA POLITIKA I NAVODNIOT "BUGARSKI" KARAKTER NA MAKEDONSKIOT NAROD. Egzarhijata gi zasiluva naporite da ja pobugarci Makedonija, barakji vo toa bugarskata vlada uste poaktivno da ucestvuva vo toa. Taka na pr. na 30.IX.1904, EGZARHOT REAGIRAL KAJ PRETSEDATELOT NA BUGARSKATA VLADA PROTIV VMRO, ZAPLASUVAJKJI DEKA KJE GO POVLECE STRUMICKIOT MITROPOLIT GERASIM I KJE GI ZATVORI UCILISTATA VO STRUMICKATA I PEHCEVSKATA NAHIJA. PORADI BARANJETO NA EGZARHOT DA BIDE ZATVOREN HRISTO CERNOPEEV, OD STRANA NA VMRO BIL OSUDEN NA SMRT MITROPOLITOT GERASIM. Zaradi vakvata polozba odnosite vo i so Egzarhijata bile raspravani na Rilskiot kongres, kade sto e daden gorniot zaklucok. So ova vsusnost VMRO im dava na znaenje na bugarskata vlada i Egzarhijata deka nikakvo pripojuvanje na Makedonija kon Bugarija ne doadja vo predvid! Za vreme na matnoto vreme na crkovnite propagandi, bitno e da se istakne, deka mladoturcite i konkretno poranesniot solunski valija Mithad pasa istaknuvale deka Makedoncite i Bugarite se dva posebni naroda i se zalagale za obnovuvanje na Ohridskata arhiepiskopija kako nezavisna crkva od bugarskata. Ovoj pasa otvoreno se zalagal za ramnopravnost na site narodnosti vo Otomanskata Imperija. Za vakvata dejnost na Mithad-pasa vo 1872 godina reagira P. Karapetrov: "MITHAD PASA SE OBIDE DA GI UBEDUVA NEKOI OD POVIDNITE MAKEDONSKI BUGARI DEKA TIE NE SE BUGARI, TUKU MAKEDONCI, DEKA TIE SE NAROD POSEBEN OD BUGARSKIOT (STO SE GLEDALO I OD NIVNIOT JAZIKKOJ NE BIL BUGARSKI), DEKA DOBRO KJE STORAT AKO SE ODDELAT OD BUGARITE I DEKA NA TAKOV NACIN KJE SI IMAAT SVOJA SAMOSTOJNA CRKVA PREKU OBNOVUVANJETO NA OHRIDSKATA ARIEPISKOPIJA."
