What about the mysterious Picts people. They disappear around the year 1000 . What were them ? I like the Celtics, and their history.Great points. The history of the world shows very large amounts of admixture, settlement, and plain land-grabbing. Even so-called "native" groups are not always the "true" natives, but are the people who were living there just before the most recent invasion. For example, Celts are frequently seen as the "natives" of the British Isles who were displaced by Anglo-Saxons and Vikings, but there are clear indications of pre-Celtic settlement.
If I accuse someone of taking my ancestors' land, they can point right back and say that my ancestors took that land from someone else. We can go around and around and play the accuse everyone else game, or we can find a way to move ahead and get along.
Modern south Slavs have the same rights over the Balkans as the Albanians and the Greeks. History is just history. They belong to the Balkans
