Both the historical region and the current country share the name Macedonia.

However, the FYROM and the historical region and completely separate geographically, politically, ethnically, and historically. Anyone from the FYROM cannot claim that Alexander was one of them because Alexander was not Slavic. It's plain and simple.

Heck, by the time of Alexander, there wasn't a substantial Slavic presence in all of Europe, let alone the Balkans.
