	Macedonians (ethnic group) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The vast majority of Macedonians live in the valley of the river Vardar, the central region of the Republic of Macedonia and form about 64.18% of the population of the Republic of Macedonia (1,297,981 people according to the 2002 census).
		Macedonian groups in the country have reported official harassment, with the Bulgarian Constitutional Court banning a small Macedonian political party in 2000 as separatist and Bulgarian local authorities banning political rallies.
		He also promoted the concept of a separate Macedonian nation, as a means of severing the ties of the Slav population of Yugoslav Macedonia with Bulgaria, although the Macedonian language is close to and largely mutually intelligible with Bulgarian, and to a lesser extent Serbian.

	Slavic peoples - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This debate is politically charged, particularly in connection with the history of the Partitions of Poland, and both German and Slavic nationalists have employed either the 'autochthonic' (in the case of the Slavic nationalists) or the 'allochthonic' (in the case of the German nationalists) as tools of political propaganda.
		The common Slavic experience of communism combined with the repeated usage of the ideology by Soviet propaganda after World War II within the Eastern bloc (Warsaw Pact) was a forced high-level political and economic hegemony of the USSR dominated by Russians, and as such despised by the rest of the conquered nations.
		In many Slavic ethnic groups the vast majority of religious people share the same religion, although many Slavs are atheist or agnostic; in the latter cases people still may traditionally associate themselves with a particular religion in a cultural and historical sense.

	The Lies of the National Albanian American Council (NAAC) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Like all the Constitutions of former Yugoslavia, the Macedonian Constitution is a complicated and ambiguous document, reflecting the complications and ambiguities of the country itself, which is famous for the inextricable mixture of numerous contrasting ethnic populations.
		The Macedonian language was recognized as distinct from the related Slavic languages of Bulgarian and Serbian.
		While Macedonian is the official state language (Article 7), the nationalities may use their own language in local affairs where they constitute a majority or "a considerable number" of the inhabitants.

	Macedonia and Greece
		Macedonian interest groups in various parts of the world have taken to the streets themselves, indicating their distress at what they say is a one-sided airing of the Macedonian question in the media.
		But by and large the Macedonians have had a pretty miserable time of it, dominated by one greater power or another for much of their history, a domination most recently perpetrated by the same European nations who were slow to support the Macedonians in the 1990s.
		This was especially the case after the Macedonian rulers started to use a Greek dialect that came from the south (they were not using a dialect similar to that of their nearest Greek neighbors, but one borrowed from much farther away) and ostentatious features of Greek culture.

	MACEDONIA "TRUE MACEDONIANS WERE AND ARE GREEK" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		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.
		Macedonians [to mean only the Greek-nationality population of Macedonia] expected to be liberated and join the then newly founded Greek state as a compensation for their sacrifices and contributions to the (Greek) War of Independence.
		The failure of the Macedonian revolt is mainly attributable to the inexperience of the rebels and the proximity of the area to Constantinople.

	British Foreign Office and Macedonian Identity
		The denial of a Macedonian identity by the neighboring Balkan states, and their irreconcilably contradictory claims, motives, justifications and rationalizations, are mirrored by the largely polemical and tendentious Bulgarian, Greek and Serbian literature on the Macedonian question.
		Macedonians were compelled to change their names and the Government did little or nothing to assist the economic development of the country[9]
		The new rulers had forced on the Macedonians their own, that is foreign, administrative and legal codes ''without regard to local conditions or requirements." Their manner of administration was considered even worse:[34] it was described as invariably harsh, brutal, arbitrary and totally corrupt.

	Macedonians of Aegean Macedonia
		The fact that 'an independent Macedonian state does not exist today' was due to a lack of Macedonian patriotism; 'it is merely one of the mistakes or lapses of history, as it were...', wrote Captain Evans.
		Macedonian patriotism is not artificial; it is natural, a spontaneous and deep-rooted feeling which begins in childhood, like everyone else's patriotism.
		MACEDONIANS as a whole do not seem to be really attracted to BULGARIA, and some were actually afraid that she would have treated them as an inferior minority, as the SERBS and GREEKS already do.

		That night's newscast showed Ljube Boskovski, the hard-line Macedonian minister of the interior, planted behind a stone wall in the village of Ljuboten, surrounded by soldiers and the sound of gunfire.

		But it was not until Sunday that Macedonian soldiers swept into the village in search of what the government said were terrorists in the area.

	ALBANIANS IN MACEDONIA
		Although the Albanians compose around 40% of the whole population in Macedonia, the Macedonian government asserts that Albanians are only one of the minority populations in Macedonia and cannot, therefore, make claims of equality as a people.
		The army, the police, the judiciary and the economy have largely been dominated by Macedonians and they have generally decided who is to get jobs and licenses.
		The Slavic Macedonian government interpreted this as a first step toward secession and declared the referendum illegal.

	Macedonia News - Kjell Magnusson
		Regardless of the motives, the concept of "Slavic Macedonians" nourishes ideas in Bulgaria, Greece and Serbia, or among Albanians in the Balkans, that a Macedonian nation does not exist, and that, consequently, a Macedonian state lacks legitimacy.
		In view of media reports, it should be remembered that the Macedonian state was established, not in 1991, but in 1945, within the framework of a federal Yugoslavia.
		Their children were taught Macedonian in Swedish schools, they were able to listen to radio programs in their own language, and a dictionary was published by the state.

	Backtalk!
		However, I (and for sure every Macedonian) have been insulted by the text "On Names and Power," written by Christopher Deliso, from January 4, 2002.
		Macedonians belong to the group of old Mediterranean peoples with, of course, influx from different people (including the Slavs) -- just like every other nation in Europe (and elsewhere for that matter).
		Note that I did not oppose "Slavic Macedonians" to "Macedonians," but to "Greek Macedonians." As far as the ancient history of a Macedonian race, that is too big of a subject to even try to deal with in such a short article.
