eGreek Community bids farewell in the name of righteousness
P4Pan

THESE ARE JUST THE FIRST FEW. ALL OF US WILL FOLLOW.
#217. Furthermore, in a move of solidarity zucha, Current President of ePoland, has requested to be deleted. (Ticket #MWX-532532).
#218. Furthermore, in a move of solidarity Dean Michaely, former President of eIsrael, has requested to be deleted. (Ticket #AUE-542610).
In a previous eRepublik insider, it was stated that a nation will be added under the Internationally recognized named as “The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia”.
After the decision to name the nation “The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia” the eGreeks took the high road, not commenting in articles, posting “troll articles”, or even replying to the massive amount of hate speech, spam and vulgarity that was aimed at us.
Apparently, this was a mistake on our behalf.
Since then, the decision has been reversed and it is now intent on being named as the “Republic of Macedonia (FYROM)(sic)”. By doing so, the endless amount of trolling, racism, vulgarity and flaming that we have seen against the eGreeks, the eGreek nation and the eGreek race in its entirety has been rewarded.
The bad manners of a vocal few have been rewarded against a quiet many.
As you all know, there is a Greek region of Macedonia, and by naming a country “Republic of Macedonia (sic)” you are implying that the Greek region of Macedonia is occupied by a foreign aggressor.
Is it being implied that Greece and therefore eGreece has no right to Macedonia, or eMacedonia, and that it has been illegally annexed by Greece and/or eGreece?
Is it being implied that the people of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and the inhabitants of Macedonia share the same race and/or culture and/or language and/or religion and/or lineage?
Furthermore, three regions have been created for the ”Republic of Macedonia (sic)", naming two of the regions “Eastern Macedonia (sic)” and “Western Macedonia (sic)”. Thus, is it being implied that the Greek region of Macedonia has something to do with these other two “regions”.
In fact, the regions that were created are not based on any real world equivalents and are actually figments of imagination as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia is actually split into eight regions and not three. As the regions are figments of imagination, they could have easily been named anything else. For example, the real world region names of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia could have been used, such as Polog, Skopje, Vardar, Pelagonia, Northeastern, Eastern, Southeastern or Southwestern.
Note that none of the real region names of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia include the word “Macedonia”.
Alternatively, a city, a geographic region or a landmark of some type to name the regions after could have been selected.
However any regional name must not and should not include the word Macedonia, unless it includes the prequalifier "Former Yugoslav Republic of".
In the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia there are no regions named "East Macedonia", "Eastern Macedonia", "West Macedonia" or "Western Macedonia" yet in Greece there are regions named "East Macedonia" and "West Macedonia". The regions may be renamed to "Eastern (FYROM)" and "Western (FYROM)" which is acceptable and suitable, because in real life there is a region in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia named "Eastern".
Furthermore, the regions of "East Macedonia" and "West Macedonia" are actually real world regions of Greece.
In direct contrast to the above, Greece has regions with the names "Eastern Macedonia" and "Western Macedonia" and each of them form one of the 13 peripheries (regions) of Greece. Unexplainably the regions with this name have not been added to the nation to which they belong, eGreece, but have been added to the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. This to me is inexcusable.

You can also review the name of Greece’s peripheries (regions) in a MAP from the UNITED NATIONS. You will clearly see that Western Macedonia and Eastern Macedonia And Thrace are regions of Greece.
At this point, I would like to quote a previous article,
As a footnote, the country is recognized as “The Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia” by the following international organizations:
1. The United Nations (UN)
2. The European Union (EU)
3. North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)
4. The International Monetary Fund (IMF)
5. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OCE)
6. The World Trade Organization (WTO)
7. The International Olympic Committee (IOC)
8. The World Bank
9. The Council of Europe (CoE)
10. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD)
11. Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE)
And even non-legal entities, such as the following sports organizations:
12. The International Federation of Association Football (FIFA)
13. The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA)
14. The International Basketball Federation (FIBA)
I would like to add the following quotation from the United Nations regarding the naming upon the entry of this Nation into this esteemed and prevailing world body:
… Decides to admit the State whose application is contained in document A/47/876-S/25147 to membership in the United Nations, this State being provisionally referred to for all purposes within the United Nations as "the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia" pending settlement of the difference that has arisen over the name of the State.
You can review this document in its entirety by clicking here.
By accepting entry into the United Nations and all other International Organizations, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia voluntarily agreed to this name pending a final solution. It accepted and agreed to this name without any subversion and without being under any distress or external influences.
The only name that has been temporarily and universally accepted by all participants in this dispute is the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
Agreeing to anything other then the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, for example the “Republic of Macedonia (FYROM)(sic)” or “Republic of Vardarska(sic)” (or any equivalent), constitutes taking one or the either side in this dispute, and is in fact, by definition an act of racism against the other.
Once again, I would like to restate that it is universally accepted as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) pending a final and just agreement by both sides, and not the "Republic of Macedonia (FYROM)(sic)".
In absolute clarity, and from any angle, the naming “Republic of Macedonia (sic)" lacks any type of International Recognition, at any world body, at any level.
In conclusion,
The actions taken imply that there is a distinction between Macedonians and Greeks, while they are one and the same.
The actions taken imply that the region in Greece and in eGreece, of Macedonia and eMacedonia respectively, are regions which should and ought to be part of the “Republic of Macedonia (sic)"
The actions taken are in direct convergence with all Internationally accepted parameters.
I hope these actions are a result of neglect and/or misinformation regarding this issue and that work will be done immediately in order to correct this error, and reverse the bigotry and racism that all Greeks and eGreeks have been subjected to.
In summation, to us, the current status is unacceptable, and we must therefore carefully consider if can continue to willingly partake in any enterprise which minimalizes our national heritage or which subjugates our national pride.
Insulted and outraged, an eGreek.

@ Horatio Vowles, you never saw anything like this from first hand and you maybe that's why you can't understand us in this point.
Just think this: A country comes into the game with a name that the UN, don't accepted and abussing our history.
Do you think that's fair?

My dear people of united kingdom
Do you know why the official name is United Kingdom and not Great Britain?
Because France did not want you to use the name Britain because there is a territory in France called Britain..
The name is important.
The name of the Country is the UK when you refer to all the home Nations England,Scotland,Northern Ireland and Wales. But it is called Great Britain when you refer to England, Scotland and Wales Plus the Place in France is called Brittany ok.
I blame Little Britain!
oh come on... it's just a (very simple basic) online game just a bunch of pixels..is all this agonised politics really worth worrying about..obsessive nationalism is bad enough in 1st life.. but to get this worked up over a game? Duh?! I don't get it. They can call the countries anything they like as far as I am concerned -it's NOT real, guys.

In the name of SELF-righteousness
@nekont:
The territory in France is called 'Brittany'.
1)tell mme what alexander and philipp means(i can tell you you cant because are greek names and mean something)
2)tell me what makedonia means(i can tell you you cant because its a greek word)
3)tell me about the sun of vergina(you have it on your photo(i can tell you because it reffers on 12 gods of olympus and is as a greek symbol)
4)tell me if you can to read and understand ancient macedonian words(beacuse i can they are written in ancient greek)
5)tell me why macedonia was taking place in aancient olympic games when only the greek cities were allowed?(BECAUSE THEY WERE GREEKS ITS SIMPLE)
6)tell me why the alexander himself told many times that he is greek?
SO YOU CAN ANSWER THESE?because i asked them too many times but i never took an answer.
All this because of a name of a country. If they name United Kingdom, Great Britain or Britain or even if they decided to name it Republic of Great Britain because it was a republic once (see Cromwell) I don't think it would make me leave the game.

1. Alexander and Philip are the Anglicized versions of some names we borrowed from some long dead civilization.
2. Makedonia means nothing to us as there is no such word in the english language you may as well ask the meaning of the word Squillizadaqulagk.
3. Some symbol used by the same long dead civilization we took the names Alex and Phil from.
4. I can read French, Spanish and Italian - So I therefore own all naming rights?
5. They initially weren't allowed as they were considered non-greek. That only changed when the son of the most powerful king in the locale wanted to 'have a go' - Unsurprisingly the Greeks quailed and caved in (helped that the son was half Greek).
6. Because he needed Greek soldiers to help in Asian campaigns. When he outlasted that supply he then went 'oriental' and started acting and recruiting from the new Macedonian regions in Asia.
Alexander was as Greek as Gordon Brown was English.

I approve with the renaming of this country as 'bananaland'
I second the idea.
Bloody hell

Thе name "Republic of Macedonia (FYROM)" is not good for the greeks ?
Well it is not good for us too. Why ? Obviously, because it contains the reference again (in the brackets).
So this supposed to be some kind of middle solution that should keep both sides pleased. Although we Macedonians are not pleased with that solution (at least not me), most of us are still going to stay, unlike greeks.
I may not be as active as I used to be and will not dedicate much time to this game, because of this. But I'm going to stay to help my friends.
Griks, EITHER QUIT THE GAME OR STOP WHINING AND SPAMMING.
HOW PATHETIC...
You create articles in all countries, spam and vote for them only yourselfs. 90-95% of the comments in your articles are from yourselfs - that obviously shows something.
Read this article:

and this one:
http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/greeks-are-threatening-by-leaving-the-game-if-wait-a-min--1532425/1/20
... to see how ridiculous greek claims are, if you haven't realized yet.
If admins are naming countries according to UN references, then why Macedonia should be exception ?
-If Macedonia is added as F.Y.R.O.M, then admins should rename other countries according to their UN names too:
UK - United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Iran - Islamic Republic of Iran
Sweden - Kingdom of Sweden
Venezuela - Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela
North Korea - Democratic People's Republic of Korea
Russia - Russian Federation
and many others...
Also another fact.
129 countries recognised Macedonia by its official name, but only 7 countries still haven't. Others don't have official position.
So 129 compared to 7 countries tells you something ?
See which countries recognise Macedonia by its name:
