How many Slavophone Greeks are there?

[Queen B]

Why should I care about the Jews, and why to bring it as an argument towards me?
The most polite way to say that is that I am not fond of Jews, and also, its irrelevant about what we talked about, which is that Agion Oros is part of Greece.
If you want to talk about Agion Oros in general, please make a thread about it in Greek section

Interesting for a first post. But anyway....

Here is a ethnographic map from 1918 showing where Macedonian Slavs were a majority in Northern Greece (Aegean Macedonia).

Hellenism in the Near East


Thousands of Macedonians have been kicked out of Northern Greece since then, so the number of Macedonians have gone down. The Macedonians who remained in Greece are now mostly all fully Hellenized by now, which makes it hard to estimate. There probably was 300,000 plus Macedonians in todays northern Greece at one stage.

...And the 90% of them always considered themselves as Greek.

Even when the Jews and Turks had not just fully recognized minorities, but also members in the Greek parliament, those folks were not trying to establish an identity...

[Petros Houhoulis]

Why does that matter? It makes it better for us that a Greek recognized Macedonians in the map.

"Macedonian Slavs" or more accurately "Slavs in Macedonia" you genius, that guy didn't think you as Macedonians...

[Scholarios]

The ultimate origin of all of these Slavophones?

Greek,of course. The village of Galliciano in Calabria is Greek-speaking and has been since Greek refugees in Kilkes who fled invading Bulgarians in the 10th Century.



And I really don't know anything about this Gaugaz Christian Turks stuff Onur talks about. It seems they are ignored in every single ethnic map published by any nationality from any period in history (even when Vlachs, Arvanites, etc are not).

Macedonia was conquered from the Eastern Romans by the Bulgars and Slavs. The people are partially Slavicized Greeks and Vlachs.

[Hellenas]

The Greeks have almost nothing to do with Slavs

The most common haplogroup to real slavic populations is R1a and this reaches only 18% in north Greece and 2% in south Greece http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y-DNA_h...Zalloua2008-30



East Baltics & Neo-Danubians do not exist in Greece(they don't even included in anthropological works concerning Greece), there are only some few northern Mediterranean Pondids.

He did actually. What we call today the Cyrillic alphabet was created by St. Kliment Ohridski and was named after St. Cyril as a gesture of honour for translating the Bible into Old Bulgarian. St. Cyril did indeed devise an alphabet, the Glagolitic script, which gradually fell out of favour, though.

You F'ing liar! Cyrillic was named after Cyril because he invented it! Secondly, Old Bulgarian is the LANGUAGE OF TURKS not Slavs. Thirdly, Kliment NEVER called his Slavonic language B'LGARSKI but Slavonic. Fourthly, Old Church Slavonic is NEAREST to modern spoken Serbian NOT some Vlach structured Bvlgarsko. Bvlgarsko is the MOST unslavic language of all Slavic languages!

Please, enough with your stupid propaganda from the late 19th century!

Lol how true, these Bulgarianized Serbs are becoming more and more retarded with their propaganda as the year goes by.

Brate, l've read even more stupidities from Bulgars in the past, i.e, Turkic Bulgars are the fathers of Indo-Europeans because they originated from the Pamirs? Worse yet, one Bulgar from another forum was boasting Bulgars invented Sanskrit?

PS They are embarrassing us as Slavs and also Turkic peoples with their unbelievable fantasies.....TIME TO WAKE THEM UP, ITS NOT 1872, anymore!
