Macedonia was never split. Ancient Macedonia was a Greek kingdom on the northern Greek peninsula that is today free from foreign occupation, a province on the northern Greek peninsula. Under Roman occupation the name was applied to a larger administrative area and during Ottoman occupation the name disappeared altogether when it became the vilayet of Selnik (Thessaloniki). Today approx 4% lies outside of historical Macedonia in Greece, specifically the area called Pelagonia in ancient Macedonia (Bitola a calque of Monastiri the original Greek name).
