Pella is IN MACEDONIA!!THE ORIGINAL MACEDONIA!

[@isaacharton7851]

No, it is not. It is called "Kutlesh", (your politicians changed the name of over 20.000 locations in Aegean Macedonia, one of them was Kutlesh to Pella) and it is in Aegean Macedonia which is a stolen part from Macedonia by Greece.

Modern Greece is by no means related either genetically or culturally to the ancient cosmos and the people who once occupied this land. The modern Greeks are just an intermixture of Balkan tribes (Albanians/Arvanites, Slavs, Vlachs) which in the process of time mingled with northern Africans, Armenians and other tribes of Anatolia, not to mention the francs and the venetians who were also dominantly present in this land.” THE SOCIO-CULTURAL ROOTS OF THE Greek ECONOMIC CRISIS Dimitris Epikouris (a Greek)

Great intro! And how remarkable that you're able to talk with some of the natives in Spanish. Soap operas can't be all that bad!

Pella is originally a part of Macedonia but the Greek seized it. The old folks speaks Macedonian language in that place. Greek forced the Macedonian people there to changed their name and threatened to be exiled . There’s some documentaries about it. Search

[@humanswithoutborders4377]

Yeah that was something I did see at the Museum of Macedonia. There was some territory seizure and expulsion by the Greeks after WWII I think.

@@humanswithoutborders4377 The current day Pela is in Greece but until 1913 the whole region of north Greece was part of the Macedonian Province in the Ottoman Empire, also the buses that we use for public transport are not old used buses from London, they are new bought from a Chinese company Jutong, it was worth of mentioning that Skopje used double decker's in 1940's and 1950's as well.

Greece is due to return the illegally anexed AEGEAN MACEDONIA with the help of the Brits and other West countries. Plus the genocide done to MACEDONIANS should be paid with 100 years of repairation. We got lots families in the AEGEAN MACEDONIA we speak MACEDONIAN and maintain our long loved culture and traditions.

Macedonian people fought alongside them only to be betrayed later when "civil war erupted " read war against MACEDONIANS. You heard about children exodus and pedopolis. Too much to type..........

@@sgeosg You are probably too young or too ignorant. The Civil war in greece was actually an operation of ethnic cleansing of Macedonians in divided of Macedonia of the Aegean with support of the West. I sugest you go to your DAG archive and check for yourself. If you are honest and looking for the true facts, depedns on you, i got no intention to convincer you its a long debate because greeks in general "suffer" from some kind of stupid superiority in the region, basically nazism.

President, Vasil Chomo Secretary, Nikola Trajkov "'our beloved fatherland is calling to you my faithful children you descendants of Aristotle and Alexander the great you and whose veins flow Macedonian blood." -- this means that we are Macedonian descendants of Aristotle and Alexander. They were not Slavs -- they were Macedonians = We are Macedonians, not Slavs. Please stop this Slavic Communist propaganda For us Macedonians.
