I smell the stink of war coming...would it be too much to ask the FYROMIANS to get on the same page with their Christian slavic brothers in Serbia and make up with Greece?
Duh...I guess it would.
Well, the borders were botched up as they've always been in the Balkans. First of all, northern Kosovo should remain Serbian (especially area where all the Orthodox monasteries are.) Number two, there really isn't an ethnic group Montenegrin (they're Serbs). The whole idea of a separate Monenegro is ridiculous. Montenegro could give up some territory to Albania to make that border more natural--Lake Ohrid entirely in Albanian territory. The question of Macedonia is the trickiest. None of their Christian neighbors really recognize them (or the autocephaly of their Orthodox church). The Greeks Hellenized thousand of Macedonian Slavs when it took over what is today Thessaloniki (Salonika). The Bulgarians have looked upon Macedonians (especially the language) as a form of Bulgarian. Actualy Albanians are becoming more and more of the population there because of the lower Slavic birth rate and high emmigration of Slavs to Germany etc. I really think some deal can be made to make a bigger Albania. The unfortunate thing the Serbs started was that many Muslims in the Balkans were pretty religiously apathetic----because of Bosnia & Kosovo, the Wahhabis and other Islamo-nuts have gotten their claws into these folks somewhat. Albanians are about 30% Christian (20% Orthodox, 10% Roman Catholic)----could the surrounded countries (Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia, & maybe Italy) make a deal that includes no toleration for an Islamic oriented state.
