Herodotus wrote how the Athenians reassured Sparta they wouldn’t defect to the Persian side by invoking their shared Greek blood, language, religion & customs.

But liberals will still look you in the eye and say nationalism just magically appeared one day in 1848.

@SirBylHolte Nicholas Galitzine is also Greek

@massedonian What do you mean? Greece has way more medals than your country in this competition.

@anastasim12 @DotoressaTsan Ωστόσο χωρίς υπότιτλους οι ξένοι δεν θα μπορούν να κάνουν τη σύνδεση αυτή. Οπότε ποιο το νόημα?

[Alessandro Palombo @thealepalombo]

I'm Italian. Greece has been my second country for years.

The Greeks I know rarely spend their summers on the cruise islands. Not Santorini. Not Mykonos. Not Crete. Not Rhodes.

They take the ferry from Piraeus to islands the world hasn't found, or drive into a continental mainland that foreign lists never mention.

Greece is the most layered civilization in Europe.

@MonkeyDKomi Χωρίς υπότιτλους τελείως κενό ως το περιεχόμενο για τους ξένους. Δεν λέει κάτι. Μοιάζει με NQ.

[Angelos @Akanthos]

@Kostas_Thoneick Δεν καταλαβαίνω γιατί δεν βάζουμε υπότιτλους. Θέλουμε να νικήσουμε ενώ οι ξένοι δεν θα γνωρίζουν περί τίνος πρόκειται και για τι μιλάει το τραγούδι?

Could he have imagined he would be read 30000ft above ground 2300 years later?

@Just_Logic_ @bpthaber Most taxi drivers in Greece are Albanians and Arabs.

@noraleonora94 @aledeniz @Robkearney1981 Since when its Lelekou an Albanian lastname? Lelek is a word that exists in many european languages xd

@WorldNews1641 @HellenicEchoes Greece doesn't take seriously the beauty pageants the last decade or more. We send whatever random people on these contests.

Petros, the local pelican! He is around 37 years old, so I was told. He goes to this restaurant because they feed him fish.

[Michael Chiklis @MichaelChiklis]

My Greek heritage is rising to the surface these days. Lots of philosophical discussions and contemplations about so many things. The more complex the world becomes, the more my instincts guide me to simplify. Love your family. Sleep well. Eat healthfully. Drink plenty of water and some wine too. Enjoy your life. Don't let any one or any thing steal your joy.
