FOR AS GREEKS WE SHOULD NOT BE SLAVES OF BARBARIANS!
Alexander the Great.

Corinthian therefor Greek
Athinian therefor Greek
Spartan therefor Greek
MACEDONIAN THEREFOR GREEK
(Athenians, Lacedemonians, Corinthians, Macedonians = Same nation-diferent state)


CAN SOMEONE TODAY CLAIM THAT NAPOLEON NATION WAS CORSICAN AND NOT FRENCH?
CAN SOMEONE SAYS THAT BISMARK NATION WAS PRUSSIAN AND NOT GERMAN?
CAN SOMEONE SAYS THAT ROBIN HOOD NATION WAS NOTISHAMHAIR AND NOT ENGLAND?

MACEDONIAN THEREFOR GREEK
