    Sorry ,but the Bulgarians are the only one who claim that this dances are bulgarian! Everybody knows and everbody is saying that for example the "Paidushko oro" is macedonian. The same with macedonian folk dances in Greece. One more thing is that Bulgarians sing macedonian folk songs. For example "Makedonsko devojce" (Macedonian girl) is a macedonian folk song ,but the bulgarians claim it's bulgarian. However this song and many other songs were composed by Alexander Sarievski ,Nikola Badev and Vaska Ilieva. They were all born in Macedonia as macedonians and composed the songs as macedonians Folk songs. So, it's pure irony to claim that the songs or the folk dances are Bulgarian or whatever only because it's part of your cultre.

    Paidushko horo is part of the "Northern folklore region" in Bulgaria so its not something special only for Macedonia, we have a Thracian version of it also. Southern Romania and Northern Greece (many Bulgarians lived there in the past) have it too.

    Those songs exist long before those people listed above were born. Macedonian Bulgarians sang them from centuries.

    Macedonian culture? The dances you posted don't look Greek to me.

    We also have something like Paidushka, but we call it Katjushka, I think it's named after a Russian girl (most likely during communism).

    There's no such thing as 'Macedonian' culture, that's Greek ofcourse.
