If it were like that I'd put up with it for a while
But in the longterm the territorial situation is unacceptable regardless

2020-02-14 22:59:49 UTC  

Turkey is far from low hanging fruit though

2020-02-14 23:13:46 UTC  

A Greece controlling the coast both sides of the Aegean is a major goal for my lifetime

2020-02-14 23:14:19 UTC  

I'll be sorely disappointed if the kebabs retain it

2020-02-14 23:17:46 UTC  

Idc about Italy controlling majority Turk areas tbh

2020-02-14 23:19:01 UTC  

Either way it makes sense to put the coastlines under Greek jurisdiction, the rest being more of a colony

2020-02-14 23:20:31 UTC  

Greece would have a hard time holding on to all of Anatolia so the colony should be some jointly governed kind of thing

2020-02-14 23:24:30 UTC  

Afaik before the population exchange there was an idea floating around about making another Greek state for Pontic Greeks

2020-02-14 23:34:23 UTC  

there should be a state for Pontic Greeks. They are basically grekophone caucasus natives

2020-02-14 23:49:48 UTC  

The Megali Idea implied the goal of reviving the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, by establishing a Greek state, which would be, as ancient geographer Strabo wrote, a Greek world encompassing mostly the former Byzantine lands from the Ionian Sea to the west, to Asia Minor and the Black Sea to the east and from Thrace, Macedonia and Epirus to the north, to Crete and Cyprus to the south. This new state would have Constantinople as its capital: it would be the "Greece of Two Continents and Five Seas" (Europe and Asia, the Ionian, Aegean, Marmara, Black and Libyan Seas, respectively).

who made that map? why do tsakonian take up that much land?

2020-02-14 23:53:53 UTC  

because it is a doric derivative?

2020-02-14 23:55:39 UTC  

Yes.

2020-02-14 23:56:59 UTC  

Because it is Doric derived.

2020-02-14 23:57:16 UTC  

Also I made it.

2020-02-14 23:58:31 UTC

2020-02-14 23:58:42 UTC

2020-02-14 23:58:51 UTC  

99% u are

2020-02-14 23:59:25 UTC  

It includes all the Greek territories that were claimed in Megali Idea.

2020-02-14 23:59:32 UTC  

Ye.

2020-02-14 23:59:55 UTC  

I am.

2020-02-15 00:01:27 UTC  

Also I split Greater Greece into regions and I gave them their "historical" languages.

2020-02-15 00:02:59 UTC  

Except from regions that had developed mixed languages like Cappadocia (Cappadocian Greek).

2020-02-15 00:19:13 UTC  

@TheEternalSearcher 𐠊𐠔 i had a chat with a friend from serbia long ago. he said that when they were visiting corfu they found old greek grandpas speaking serbian, when asked why they said that their own grandfathers from corfu fought alonside serbs in the thessaloniki front in ww1 and they have massive respect for the serbs. they even saluted my serbian as they were leaving

2020-02-15 00:26:31 UTC  

We always helped each other in wars.

2020-02-15 00:32:47 UTC  

Also Interesting story, I have also ancestors from my dad's side that fought alongside Serbs in WW1.

2020-02-15 00:54:38 UTC  

good good they did gods work

2020-02-15 00:54:55 UTC  

shame we never got the chance to kick the turds out of constantinopole

2020-02-15 00:55:09 UTC  

the bulgarians screwed everything up

2020-02-15 00:55:18 UTC  

and even lost hadrianopole

2020-02-15 00:55:27 UTC  

Deus vult let us take back our patrical views.

2020-02-15 00:59:35 UTC  

Agree fully. Fun fact, in Cappadocia exists an underground city. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derinkuyu_underground_city

2020-02-15 01:10:20 UTC

Let the STDs begin

@Norik is that because of the mormonism?

2020-02-15 01:27:15 UTC  

probably
