The Greeks referred to the Macedonians as "barbarians," primarily due to cultural and linguistic differences.

How was the fall of Greece to the Macedonians similar to the fall of Rome to the barbarians?

Well, for instance, both the Greeks and the Romans were taken over by the Macedonians or barbarians.

Who encouraged the Greeks to support the Macedonians?

The key figure who encouraged the Greeks to support the Macedonians was Demosthenes, an Athenian statesman and orator.

Ultimately, his calls for unity were aimed at strengthening Greek resistance and cooperation against their adversaries.
