it will be funny to see al the infighting this will spark if it takes off
POOR BALKANISTAS, WE ARE STUCK IN BETWEEN
J/K WE ARE NEGRO AS HELL EXCEPT THAT WE HAVE MORE ALPINE FACES, NOT THIN ONES LIKE ITALIANS
HITLER WAS NEGRO AS WELL THOUGH
what?
Muh Hitler
Was black haired dude
I consider Balkans Slavic and white
including Bulgarians
Lol NSS
I'm using the term "negro" in quite liberal way
I am a dark haired Brit/German mix
ahhhh
lulz
nearly triggered me there
lol
There are some people who claim that Balkans are not Slavic because we only adopted language
yes
I heard this
But outsiders cant really comprehend it
Because we have like gazillion of toponyms here that are purely slavic
names also
and it is easy to see 500 years of turkish ottoman rule htere
as well as customs
there*
however
they are Slavs
while you can surely adopt language, you cannot adopt every custom and every tradition
true
but to me it's as foolish as saying Ukrainans aren't slavs
Like all ancient slavic festivals here have been recycled to appear Christian
And Slavic toponyms are everywhere
Very close to me home is a hill called "Mogyla" which has thaht name for like hundreds years
since they minged with the early Turkik settlers
Bulgarian famous mountain is also called Pirin, which is their pronunciation of Perun
Khazars
There are many misconceptions though

where are you from in the Balkans?
