Macedonian identity hasn't existed in the original form for over 2000 years. There are desceandants. That is it. It is a region in Macedonia, and also in Greece. Overglorified on both ends.
Luxembourg is now an independent country and also a province of Belgium. Before the partitions it used also to include a lot more territory than it does now, so a lot of modern Germans, French and Walloons are of Luxembourgish descent (and often are brought up speaking the same language even before they learn the local one).
While I have no bone to pick in this fight, I would merely like to state that what we have here is basically a "petty" problem and one fought in words hopefully, that are also "petty!"
Mace-donia! Just spell it in one of its variations? No one else really give a rats ass!
But, it sure does keep a lot of people mad at one another!
