Greeks vs Croats who is more Balkan?

[Chris596]

Do you have any idea about Balkan people? People in southwestern-half of Balkans like fyrom were unlucky to not have any real contact with Europe until 1913, thus they didnt experience enlightenment, which is what made them so many negative things, among them being autistic, and a good evidence of how far we are from them

They even have native muslims making a great part of their capitals population. In athens all muslims are post-1980s immigrants from Asia and Africa.

On the other hand i would lie if i said that Bulgarians are 3rd world trash like this, i visit the country more than twice a year, people are ok

That's true but Bulgarians aren't even Southwest Balkaners. They are mainly comparable to Romanians if we exclude their Slavic language and identity (mostly).

Culturally Croats definitely belong more to the Balkans, genetically too, while there are regions in Greece with significant Slavic input.

You are so ignorant that you even have no idea what is Bosnian and what is Bosniak.

Bosnian - person from Bosnia. Geographic term. Can be Serb, Muslim, Croat.

Bosniak - Muslim from Bosnia.

Okay thanks for explanation but in my defense I can say that it's not me, but Google Translate translated "босняк" for me as a Bosnian.

North Croatia = Central Europe
Dalmatia = South Europe
Greece: South Europe

Top notch content Sokol, I'm waiting for your new work.

Because that was the goal for West. To divide Serbs who live outside Serbia is many nations and new states (Montenegro, Kosovo, Bosnia) and to assimilate those Serbs into Bosnians, Montenegrins or "Kosovars" nations.
They invented Bosnian nation and language, Kosovar nation and Montenegrin language. Truth is that Montenegrin and Bosnians speak Serbian language and Kosovar nation does not exists.

Croats, basically štokavian speaking Croats, who live in green zone are Balkans.
Kajkavian and čakavian are not.



Mainland Greeks are Balkans, insular and coastal not.

Not even the mainland bruh. We have some commonalities, but don't call us Balkan only because of some similarities.

Native Northern Greeks are Balkan. But thousands of migrants from Anatolia settled in Northern Greece after 1924. If you see surnames like -oglou, -idis or surname with Turkish origin they are probably migrants from Anatolia.
North Croats are more Central European. South Croats are Balkan. So both of them partially Balkan. Not proper Balkan.

Northern Greeks and Southern Croats are both Balkan.

Not even Northern Greeks.
