Their ancestors are the Illyrians, the ancient Thracians, the Bulgars (Turkic tribe with some Iranic and Ugric elements), very little Greek ancestry (only southern and southern western), and all of these people started to become slavonized. Until the 40s they were considered by ALL as Bulgarians. Today's "Macedonians" must know that their great-grandparents were calling themselves Bulgarians. In all history books, if you read about the Balkan wars, there is no "Macedonian" ethnonym (ethnic group). Skopjans or Vardaskans (as the Greeks call them, in the Greek state and Cyprus) are really getting a very clean brainwash at schools and from the press. It is absolutely idiotic when they say that they descended from the ancient Macedonians, who by the way, were not Greek! They should start reading from non Skopjan sources (books-internet). The Kingdom of ancient Macedon was, in what is today Central Greek Macedonia, covering only a few places at the south and southwestern of what is today Skopje. At the place that the country of Skopje is, before Christ it was the Paeonian Kingdom. The Paeonians were a thraco-Illyrian mixture. Today the government of Bulgaria does not recognize a Skopjan "Macedonian" language, and Ethnologue states that the "Macedonian" language is almost the same with the Bulgarian. Both languages classified as southern Slavic / eastern. Skopjans and Bulgarians can communicate easily, without having the need of speaking English to understand each other. Bulgarians and Skopjans have almost the some ancestry. The only difference is that Skopjans have more Illyrian blood, and the Bulgarians more Thracian blood.
