Are the saint brothers Cyril and Methodius Macedonian?
Cyril and Methodius came from Salonica (Thessalonica), the largest Macedonian city and the second most important city of the Byzantine Empire after Constantinople, the capital. The city was founded by the Macedonian King Cassander and named after Thessaloniki, the daughter of Philip II and sister of Alexander the Great. Thessaloniki was part of the Greek City state of Macedonia. Cyril and Methodius are believed to have lived 8th to early 9th century in what was Macedonia at the time. Ruling out the possibility they could have been Bulgarians or any other slavs as their city was never taken over during attempts in the 7th century. As one can unearth in most history books slavic peoples did not move into the balkans until the 7th century almost 1,000 years after the death of Alexander the Great.Contemporary Byzantine records write of Salonica as the "greatest city of the Macedonians". Historical evidence confirms that the Macedonians existed in Macedonia, that the Macedonians served in the Byzantine army, and that the Emperors of the Byzantine Empire were ethnic Macedonians, both before and after the lifetime of Cyril and Methodius. As the documents over the last 2,500 years show, the Macedonians were Greeks, and the explicit mentioning of Salonica as the city of the "Macedonians" in the Byzantine records further confirms that the Greek city state of Macedonia continued to exist and retain its Greek identity even more than 1,000 after Alexander's death thus removing the possibility that Cyril and Methodius could have been anything but Greeks.The reason they provided the Slavic nations with an alphabet that was a modified version of the Greek alphabet was so that the Slavs could be better educated and brought closer to god through teachings written in the bible. "Preaching without an alphabet and books is like writing upon the water" -Constantine (Cyril) 8th CenturyCyril and Methodius were ethnic Macedonians and therefore Greeks not Slavs, descendents of the Macedonians of Phillip II. Under the direct order of the Byzantine Emperor, Cyril and Methodius educated the Slavs in Macedonia in order to culturally integrate them into the empire. Hence, later becoming the Slave Apostles.Answer, Yes Cyril and Methodius were Greek Macedonians.
