I'm pretty sure that a clone of Alexander the Great wouldn't start out as a true nobody.

- fluoridation 2y agoCompared to the prince of Macedon? Yeah, pretty much zero political power.
- drexlspivey 2y agoHe would win the election in Greece in a heartbeat
- arp242 2y agoNot before Greece and North Macedonia declare war over who gets to claim the Alexander clone.
- usrusr 2y agoWell, whoever gets to have an election first, right? But then there's that thing about clones, why not both!
- armitron 2y agoFriendly reminder that the modern country of North Macedonia has no connection whatsoever to the ancient Kingdom of Macedon which was a Greek state, similar to the other Greek city states (Athens, Sparta). Ancient Macedonians spoke a Greek dialect, had Greek names and practiced the Greek religion. Modern Macedonians are for the most part Slavs that speak a Slavic language and have no historical connection to ancient Greece. The naming confused me until I visited Vergina in Greece and had a chance to learn more about the EU politics behind it.
