Macedonia or "Makedonia" in Greek is a province of the northern Greek peninsula that began in ancient times as the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedonia until it was absorbed into the rest of Greece. So it was always a part of the Greek world although interpretations of political systems have varied from ancient to modern times.

Since 1946 there is also a country to the north that inhabits the territory that in ancient times was the land of Paeonia and Dardania and whose inhabitants are a mixture of Albanians, Slavs, Turks and Shutka people. As part of communist Yugoslavia, it was named Vardar Banovina but was renamed the Peoples Republic of Macedonia, under the communist leadership of Joseph Broz Tito, in order to lay claim to Greece's northern province. This land was never part of historical Macedonia proper.
