Ancient Macedonia was a Greek kingdom on the northern Greek peninsula. Modern Macedonia is a Greek province on the northern Greek peninsula. There has been an unbroken record of people identifying as Macedonians with a Greek ethnic, linguistic and cultural identity from ancient till modern times.

Note:

The country self identifying as "Republic of Macedonia" is a newly founded Slavic country north of historical Macedonia on the land that was once the lands of the kingdoms of ancient Paeonia/Dardania. It is inhabited by Slavic people who invaded in the 6th century AD and is unrelated to the historical Macedonia on the northern Greek peninsula.
