Well, you shouldn't try to troll me. Bosniak curriculum has no special interest in either Greek or Latin instead they focus on Arabic and Turkish. Latin courses were elective in most, can be mandatory in some. Yet the same case applies Arabic also.
I don't remember anyone excited while the teacher introducing me to the students as I'm from Greece, but they were yelling random Turkish words when they hear that I'm a Turk. Neither Turkish nor Greek easy to learn, but Turkish is easier for a Bosniak thanks to cultural overlap. Claiming Greek is super-easy is fiction, don't forget with whom you are speaking lol.
On the other hand, I don't understand how you can promote Istanbul over Sarajevo. Even my preference would be Edirne over Istanbul in historical meaning.

I was referring the way Bosniensis commented, he said that (all) Balkan people would accept the name Constantinople again, as if it matters if any non-Greek Balkaner accepts or not. We are Balkans geographically, but we've traditionally engaged and been interested much more with the Mediterranean. So you could say we are Balkaners but we are Meditarraneans first and foremost.
I agreed that we have the oldest connection, that's automatically true.

Because Sarajevo is world unto it's own always complained about everything. In 1850 Omer Pasha Latas (Ottoman field marshal from my region) and people of my county as soldiers, captains etc.. we had to go there and kill most of Aghas, and Sarajevo Ottoman Royality who were rebellius.
Even to this day they hate us because of that and have general animosity towards Krajna People. They invest almost nothing in my region and they see us on par with Serbs and Croats.
One of Sarajevo citizen told to me: "You language doesn't sound like ours .. more like Serbian" ... and they see us as "untrusty" etc..
Latin and Greek are mandatory in Gymnasium, Turkish will be soon be in schools along side English. While I like Istanbul and Turkish peopleI don't remember anyone excited while the teacher introducing me to the students as I'm from Greece, but they were yelling random Turkish words when they hear that I'm a Turk. Neither Turkish nor Greek easy to learn, but Turkish is easier for a Bosniak thanks to cultural overlap. Claiming Greek is super-easy is fiction, don't forget with whom you are speaking lol.
I generally disagree about spreading that language deeper in Balkans cause it's obviously Central Asian in origin and we should all strive to keep traditional Balkan languages alive.
Greek language is one of the oldest Balkan and Mediterranean languages and should have priority in learning.
There is no such thing as Bosniak curriculum, people educate everywhere. It's just that schools have choice between Croatian, Serbian and Bosnian language (which is next level stupidity)Well, you shouldn't try to troll me. Bosniak curriculum has no special interest in either Greek or Latin instead they focus on Arabic and Turkish. Latin courses were elective in most, can be mandatory in some. Yet the same case applies Arabic also.
Some schools don't have ethnic tolerance, for which they are prosecuted by law, but those lawful ones have everything as described by the laws.
It is true that there are schools like Turkish College (and others) where you can learn Turkish and Arabic and recently all schools have some Turkish as well but there is a Classical Gymnasium as well where you can learn Latin and Greek.
Good thing is that you can choose.
Here is a typical Gymnasium school program we have one in my city and every bigger city has one.
