there were people from towns/villages in RoM, and in Northern Greece, who were paid soldiers in the Ottoman army with Slavic sounding names and who self identified as Macedonians. The records the video relates to is for 1431 -1432. The video also makes mention of the Macedonian Orthodox church in Ohrid. For there to be an established church means we can safely say Macedonians were in these parts (RoM and Norther Greece) well before 1431. That means all the BS, from all our neighbours, regarding when Macedonia came into existence (eg 1944 and Tito or any date after 1400) is just that, total BS.
If Macedonia's detractors were wrong (which they were) about all the different 'start' dates after 1400 of when the Macedonians arrived in Macedonia, then does it not suggest their other claims could also be wrong? Hopefully more and more evidence will continue to surface and prove what we Macedonians have known all along. I am not saying absolute racial purity, but a continuation of people self identifying as Macedonians and speaking the tongue I speak.
