Video Description:
A short story about the closer descendants of Alexander the Great at this day. There is high probabilities that modern Albanians are closer to him since the culture remains almost the same and intact as during the time of Alexander

very interesting video, what a strange and intertwined history we seem to have with the greeks. i wonder if they will ever have the courage to explore their identity with an open mind. for now, we are stuck with these propaganda machines that respond without any reflection or new thinking.

The ancient macedonians was not greeks. The shared similarities with Trahkiens and Illyrians. With time ancient macedons adopted greek language and culture. With time the got also assimilated.
Same thing with the Arvanites. (Albanians in greece) Because these albanians were orthodox, Greeks hellenaized them. Changed their name to sound more greek and they were not aloud to speak their native tounge. Just search about "arvanites" you will see.

makedonce92. first of all if you think you have a history wich everyone knows you came to ballkans between 7 to 9th centry from karpats of russia. then tell me why you dont have a language? Manastiri was never writen as bitolla on any history books...only slavs changed the name just as they have done with every other city in macedonia. i would sugest you stop humiliating your self by telling the world you have history in macedonia. macedonia is a land of illyrians today albanians.u r karpat slav

If you think you are not bulgarian then why you speak the same language same music same cultur same everything. indeed some albanians became muslims after ottomans but we have nothing in commant with turks like you do with slavs. we have our own culture. unike language that dont match with no other. if you say you were pushed to speak slavic we were as well. for us albanians everything connects us to illyrians. language, cultur, power, what other nation in ballkans have BESA illyrian word.

Alexander is the ... ( 7 months ago by SpongebobSquarebrain)
Alexander is the english version of Alexandros (
ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΣ), so "ka le si ander" does not fit.Besides many Greek names end to ANDROS (ΑΝΔΡΟΣ) witch means MAN and many Greek words start with ALEX (ΑΛΕΞ) witch means protector. Bucephalus (ΒΟΥΚΕΦΑΛΑΣ) in Greek means the horse which has a head like an ox. Wikipedia

In 359 BC, King Perdiccas III of Macedonia was killed by attacking Illyrians.
But in 358 BC, Macedonia's Philip II, the father of Alexander the Great, defeated the Illyrians and assumed control of their territory as far as Lake Ohrid. Alexander himself routed the forces of the Illyrian chieftain Cleitus in 335 BC, and Illyrian tribal leaders and soldiers accompanied Alexand
er on his conquest of Persia. After Alexander's death in 323 BC, independent Illyrian kingdoms again arose.
Although i agree ... ( 6 months ago by ef8sir)
Although i agree Alexander the Great was by no means Greek,& they have nothing to do with his legacy, How you can claim a Macedonian who was Son Of a Macedonian King, Who ruled Macedonia, Gave every order in his army in Macedonian, is somehow more Albanian than Macedonian coz his mother was Albanian, and Macedonian language is similar to Albanian? Dont u think its a bit more similar to Macedonian? Alexandar Makedonski No matter how hard every1 tries u will never take him from the Macedonian ppl
I understand you ... ( 5 months ago by kingphantom99)
I understand you are happy to confirm that the illyrians translated in albanian meanin the FREE where the tribe or country that made up most of alexanders army but its important to know that we have mingled and mixed our blood with the greeks and even helped them win theyr independence we need to stop hating on each other and all of albanians in greece need to leave that country behind and never look back theyr racism towards theyr albanians its intorable.allthow i hate to say, we are related!

Lol. It's okay he died, we're not trying to take him anywhere =) just maybe understand who he was a little bit better because he was a great hero. I do understand exactly what you are saying though and I agree with you, and yes i'm 100% albanian. lol. He was half Albanian and half Macedonian. However we all know that it was the ALBANIAN blood in him that made him so great. =)

Also, Alexandros was not Illyrian. His mother Olympia and her family were Molossians. They were leaders of the Epirote League in the greater region. This never included northern Albania or Kosovo or whatever.
Epiros is not Albanian. Ask your Tosk "brothers" in the south if they feel any connection with the rest of Albania. That's why the southern Albanians/Epirotes started the revolution in the 1990's.

i mean damn it i love italians and greeks but our furocious albanian future does not lie with anyone in the balkans our warrior nature and soul allready has done its job there keepin our motherland intact despite of the attacks of the italians and greeks in ww2.Now our beutifull people are taking on a new frontier and new chalenges the only thing that i fear is that we will show mercy to anyone that violates our right to exist because there is no doubt in my heart we will always be around.
