What a wonderfully old-school solution!

This is an idiotic proposal. It should be just "MACEDONIA" or "Republic of Macedonia". Greeks are whining because they say that the Slavs can't be the ancient Macedonians. But since when they proved to be the heirs of the ancient Greeks?

Countries should be free to choose their names. Upper Macedonia is ridiculous.
