The historical conflict between Greece and Macedonia intensifies amid the breakup of Yugoslavia and Macedonia's NATO membership bid. Greece asserts that the name "Macedonia" is inherently Greek, fearing expansionist intentions from the new nation. In response, Macedonians highlight their heritage, citing figures like Alexander the Great to support their claim to the name. This clash of narratives reflects deeper national identities and geopolitical tensions in the Balkans, drawing significant international attention.
