Kozjak, we are from the same family. We were 1 house back in the 1830s. My greatgreatgreatgrandfather was Bogdan and his brother was Smiljko. He had a son Siljan, which is who you guys come out of.

This is hilarious.
Makedonkeys to this day are fighting to find out who they really are!!!!!
Who are Macedonians???
Even they don't know who they are???
But yet these Govno Makedonkeys believe Kosovo* isn't a Serbian Province.
Lost people with a lost identity.

Macedonian Republic

Yes My father jokingly said a while back that if the Government in Skopje ever did agreed to the Name ‘Gorna Makedonija’ then everyone to the north will probably start calling us Govna Makedonija (Sh!t Macedonia).
The reality is that the Macedonian government is only interested in a solution, which adds a qualifier in front of the word ‘Republic’, while the Greek side wants to add the qualifier after the word ‘Republic.
e.g.
Macedonian Position: (‘Insert word’ Republic of Macedonia)

Greek Position: (Republic of ‘Insert word’ Macedonia).

The Greek side is leaking its suggestions to the media with the hope that they get some traction, but ultimately the greek model can never be agreed too because it will change the Macedonian identity (e.g. ‘Republic of New Macedonia’ or ‘Nova Makedonia’ will change the name of its citizens and langue to ‘New Macedonian or Novi Makedonci)
But on the other hand using the Macedonian suggestion makes more sense (e.g. ‘New Republic of Macedonia’), which would still enable the citizens to identify as Macedonians, and as a bonus will give Greeks the option to ignore the word Macedonia when referring to its neighbour (e.g Greeks can just call Macedonia the ‘New Republic’ in conversation)

Is this April fools ?

Seriously change the r to a v and I comprehend why the Greeks suggested it but please are the Fyromians that dumb to not realise the slavic word that it easily becomes? GornoMakedonija misspelled as it would definitely be implies the worst part of Makedonija or in English Sh.tMakedonija. The greeks must be laughing away at this one!

Seriously is this the best they come up with ?
