The Pomaks of Thrace (Greece-Turkey-Bulgaria)

Imagine a people who have lived here for more than 3,000 years. A people whose past all historians would trace with almost scientific certainty. A people wishing to live in peace.
But recent history, religion and politics have decided otherwise. Indeed, for centuries, the north-east of present-day Greece has been the scene of endless conflicts between the capitals of empires eager for expansion and supremacy.
The Pomaks suffer the consequences. Three languages, three religions, three borders: the War of the Three will take place. This film is the view of a Greek woman who discovers a Pomak village whose inhabitants no longer have a choice, they must remain silent and be forgotten...
Director: Despina PANTAZIS

24.3.2024 In Etnos newspaper, Nikos Gianidis says, "Our identity is taken out of the garbage dump of history." In that garbage dump of history, there are also Hittites, etc. There is no one who denies ancient Greece. However, in his book in 1834, Jacob Philipp Fallmerayer also says that these so-called Greeks have nothing to do with ancient Greece and are a Slavic state. Dr. Georgios Nakracas also says the same thing. Now Edi Rama and Macedonia are saying it openly... It is not possible to keep Greece alive with the Greeks remaining in history. Bulgarians are the first Turks to become Muslims. Pomaks and Çıtaks were Turks. 500 since There were Avar, Pecheneg, Bulgarian, Cuman-Kipchak and Uz Turks in the Balkans, Central Europe and Anatolia. Since there was no Islam, they became Orthodox.

Si tu me permets. Je peux te donner un bref résumé des 27 dernières années. Le gouvernement grec avait initié un program clandestin d'assimiler les Pomaks, surtout les jeunes femmes, à la culture grecque pour qu'elle puisse s'éloigner des griffes des Imams et du gouvernement turc (voir le Traité de Lausanne). Donc, le gouvernement grec a subventionné ces jeunes madames pomak en les emmener étudier à Athenes pourqu'elle puisse s'accomoder à la cultures de l'ouest et de s'évader des menottes musulmanes. Je croix que la mission a réussi car j'avais revisité ces régions en 2015 avec ma famille québecoise depuis mon service militaire en 1988 et j'étais étonné comment la culture a changée. Les jeunes femmes ne sont plus voilées (sauf quelques exceptions), les pomaks ont leur propres emissions radiophoniques, il me semble qu'ils sont plus libres sans être acharnés par les leader musulmans d'origine turc. Est-ce qu'il y a encore de l'amélioration à faire, c'est certain; cependant, l'assimiliation dans la culture grecque est prévalante malgré à ce que des réseaux de propagandes provenant d'Istanbul, comme TRT World disent.

Greetings to our fellow Greek citizens of Muslim faith. Greece has three distinct indigenous Muslim ethnic groups. The largest is the “Turkish background” Muslims which make up approximately 57% of all indigenous Greek Muslims. Next are the Pomaks which make up approximately 33% of indigenous Greek Muslims. The third, final and smallest group of Greek Muslims are Roma who have adopted Islam. (Northern. Greek Roma. Southern Greek Roma tend to be Greek Orthodox.) And make up the remaining 10%. Those are the three indigenous Greek Muslim groups in Greece that make up the “Greek Muslim community.” (These groups are indigenous Greek citizens. And don’t include Muslim migrants from Albania and the Middle East of which there are many in Greece.)

By indigenous I meant not imported recently. Pomaks have lived in Thrace for centuries as Thrace has changed borders between Greece, Bulgaria, and the Ottoman Empire. But the Pomaks have always existed on both sides of the borders of Greece and Bulgaria. Although Bulgaria previously had more Pomaks than Greece. Don’t know now since many left Bulgaria for Turkey in the 90’s.

Summary of the Video on the Pomak People The video provides an in-depth look at the Pomak people, an ethnic group living in the mountainous region of Thrace, Greece. It explores their struggles, cultural identity, and the socio-political challenges they face due to their unique position between three countries: Greece, Bulgaria, and Turkey. Harsh Living Conditions - The landscape is described as rugged and harsh, with winter conditions making farming difficult. - Pomak men, women, and horses work tirelessly on the land, hoping to produce enough to survive the winter. - The Pomaks are depicted as living under the pressure of three different nations, languages, and religions. Cultural Identity and Education - The Pomak children learn in three different languages but struggle to gain a solid education. Despite attending school, their learning is compromised due to the complexity of the situation. - Women are shown to be largely voiceless and face significant societal constraints, while also expressing a desire for change. Historical Context - The video explains the complicated history of the Pomaks, who are descendants of the Agrianes and have lived in the region long before modern borders were established. - Historical invasions and occupations by Bulgarians, Ottomans, and Greeks have shaped their current predicament. - After World War II, many Pomaks sought attachment to Greece to escape communism, but they remain a minority and face neglect from the Greek government. Struggles for Survival - The Pomaks primarily cultivate tobacco, which is their main source of income. However, government quotas limit their production and income. - The video highlights the physical difficulties of farming in steep terrains and poor weather conditions, exacerbated by a lack of governmental support. - There is a sense of despair among Pomak farmers as they deal with an insufficient economy and loss of traditional ways of life. Cultural Blending and Identity Crisis - The Pomaks navigate a complex cultural landscape where Turkish and Greek influences dominate. - Many young Pomaks feel torn between their traditional identity and modern pressures to assimilate into broader Greek or Turkish society. - Despite attempts to retain their language and customs, the video illustrates the existential threat to Pomak culture posed by external pressures. Conclusion - The video concludes with a poignant reflection on the future of the Pomaks, who are caught between preserving their identity and adapting to external influences. - The ongoing struggle for survival amidst political and economic challenges paints a bleak picture, yet the pride in their heritage remains strong among the Pomak community. This summary encapsulates the key themes and messages presented in the video about the Pomak people, illustrating their resilience in the face of adversity while grappling with issues of identity and survival.

The Avars besieged Constantinople in 618 and 626. A prayer called BELLIUM AVARICUM was offered in Constantinople. Prayer is read. This prayer is still sung as the 6th hymn every Easter in Orthodox churches. As you can see, it's Latin/Italian. Greek began to be spoken after the 8th century.

Това видео е абсолютно невярно. "Помак" е дума, която означава " потурчен" българин. Внушението, че това е отделена етническа група е заплатено от чужди правителства, които имат интерес да създадат етнически проблем в България и Гърция. Тази каша от информация е абсолютно невярна и злонамерена. Всички потурчени, т. е. насила ислямизирани села, имат запазени своите предишни български и гръцки имена. Не съществува език на помаците. Те говорят само своите родни езици - гръцки и български, а Турция се опитва да заграби територии. Създаването на изкуствени нации е стара западна практика. Но такава етническа група никога не е съществувала. Не използвайте невежествотопна западната публика. Помаците, специално в България, са принуждавани, с масови кланета на цели села, да приемат исляма и тези кланета над това, чисто българско, население, са документирани, от българите, но и от турската тогавашна власт. Спрете да разпространявате лъжи и се справяйте с исляма в собствените си страни, а ако желаете, ппеподавайте във Франция на турски и арабски език. И как така наричате България и Гърция Тракия. Държава Тракия не е съществувала, това е Обединено название на над 120 племена на траките, всяко със свои царе, столица и отделно име. Те не съществуват като етническа общност от над 1700 години.

They are ethnically slavic same as any Balkans and Bulgarian but because they accepted Islam the other Slave did not accepted them to be one of them. They have no relations to any Turkic ethnic at all. They are pure Slavic just like Bosnian Muslim.

Do you know the meaning of the word - Pomak. This is a word from the Bulgarian language - pomachen or "pomuchen", pomachen - a person who forcibly becomes someone else. All waves of forced Islamization in the Rhodopes are documented and available in the Ottoman archives. The population is mostly of Bulgarian origin, but there are of course Greeks and Serbs in ader part of Bolkans. A large part of these people have relatives who are still Christians in Bulgaria. I am a Bulgarian Christian and I have Greek roots from Thrace and Constantinople. There is no nationality - pomak, no language - pomak, this is a not tru.

The narrator's take on this whole situation is awfully slanted and pessimistic. It would be nice if he could have presented things in a more neutral tone, attempting to understand the points of view of all the groups involved and focusing more on the natural strengths of the people. He really drives home his conviction that the Pomaks are helpless victims and everyone around them are just heartless oppressors. Are things ever as simple as that sort of caricature?
