  Macedonians
Prior to the formation of Orthodox churches in the 1930s, Macedonian immigrants found solace in cafes near their boardinghouses, and in a number of mutual benefit societies, the first of which was founded in Chicago in 1902.
Macedonian Orthodox churches began to grow in the Midwest, Northeast, and Ontario, and in the 1960s the new generation of Chicago Macedonians, which was steadily making its way into the American middle class, founded Sts.
The task of ascertaining the total number of Macedonians in Chicago is confused by the association of many with either the Bulgarian or Greek churches, but Macedonians probably numbered fewer than 10,000 at the end of the twentieth century.

 THE MACEDONIANS
Macedonians, on the other hand, were in possession of an empire and a handful of other disciplines necessary for the immediate needs and sustenance of it.
Droysen's idea to combine both, the Greeks and the Macedonians under one name is certainly appealing from a German point of view, since it finds analogous development of the German states under the strong leadership of Prussia; but it falls significantly short in balancing the immiscible union of contrastingly separate peoples.
After the national uprising in 1903 that ended with catastrophic consequences for the Macedonian populace, the leadership of the country was largely decimated by the lawless bands of Turkish marauders, who mercilessly and indiscriminately slaughtered the defenseless masses.

 Badian
The question of whether the Macedonians, in the fourth century B.C., where regarded as Greeks or as barbarians--a question which, as I have indicated, is not closely connected with the real affinities that a modern scholar might find--is therefore of considerable historical interest.
We may thus take it as certain that, when Alexander used Macedonian in addressing his guards, that too was because it was their normal language, and because (like Ambiance) he had to be sure he would be understood.
The fact that in the final battle a large contingent betrayed their comrades and deserted to the Macedonians shows that (as centuries before in the battle of Lade) national antagonism was by no means pervasive, and was perhaps not at all prominent.

 Macedonians in Greece
Furthermore, ethnic Macedonians could hardly find a job in the civil sector and their children were, reportedly, being discouraged from having a complete secondary education.
Macedonian human and minority rights movements have been actively campaigning to persuade the Greek government and the international community to recognize the existence of the Macedonian minority in Greece, and acknowledge their basic human and minority rights.
On this basis Macedonians are refused other minority rights, such as, the right to establish cultural institutions, minority language schooling, etc. The Greek state has a very restrictive definition of citizenship, it does not allow for any other ethnic identity except Greek to be bearer of a Greek citizenship.

 Greeks and Macedonians
Professor Andronikos has suggested that the tripod found in Tomb II at Vergina, which bears an Argive inscription of the middle of the fifth century, was awarded to Alexander I at the Argive Heraea, to which the inscription refers.(11) Moreover, the official decision by the Hellanokikai won wide recognition.
We have to wait until the time of Antigonus Doson, it seems, before the Macedonians are attested as a people in the political sense.(29) This in itself, of course, may not be relevant to the issue of their presumed "Hellenism," any more than the king's presence at a congress was to his.

Macedonians built their houses on hilltop and well-protected areas and retained the lifestyle of the original Dorians possibly emphasized by the need of intermittent wars needed to preserve their own existence.
