Yes, they did. Northern Greece use to be Macedonia. Solun (or thessaloniki now) use to be Macedonia's capital. It was very wrong and unfair but it happened. (I learnt this in history) Greek army's use to beat or even kill Macedonains if they spoke anything but greek. Even today northern Greece is still classed as Macedonia, but under greek occupation.
Alexander "The Great Of Macedon" conqured Greece for the Macedonian's and the Macedonian Empire which was not part of Greece, if Alexander "The Great Of Macedon" was Greek then why would he conqur his own land and people?
Macedonian
He conquered the Persian Empire from Libya to Central Asia. He conquered it for himself, not for Greece, which he controlled. He was Macedonian, and it was his empire, not Greece, which was a collection of independent city-states, which his father had taken control of, and passed it on the Alexander.
Edessa
The Macedonian in the region of Greece had people in ancient history who worshiped the Greek god Zeus. Being of Greek origin.
Other than the Greeks themselves, from the Macedonian conquest of Greece in the 330s B.C.E. until Greece became independent in the 1820s, Greece was ruled by the Macedonian Empire, the Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire, the Republic of Venice, and the Ottoman Empire. The Nazi Germans also conquered Greece for a short time in the 1940s.
