Did
you know that the Thracian
Clan of the Carpathians gave Carpathian its name?
That Europe was centered in the Balkan area and the Thracian race were the first Europeans?
Numerous
new and often sensational discoveries made by archaeologists and ethnologists
have made us revise our previous picture of the history of Europe:
The
Thracians, a race which was centered in the Carpathian Mountains, influenced the
development of Europe between the Aegean, Adriatic and Black Seas. They created
a cultural circle, the importance of which is only now becoming clear.
The
culture and history of the Thracians is as exciting as any history can be.
Towards
the end of the 5 th century a.c. the Slavs first entered this area and soon the
whole of the Balkan peninsula as far down as Crete was overflowing with this
farming people from the North. As the Slav peoples adopted the Greek language
and the Greek Christian religion they became assimilated and lost their identity.
In
Thrace the opposite occurred where the Thracians become Slavs
The
Slavs are also an Indo-European race.
Some
researchers even suspect that the 2 races have the same origin.
In
the area which was once Thrace now live Bulgarians, Greeks, Macedonians,
Rumanians, Serbs and assimilated Thracians as Turks!?, who in spite of their
comman ethnical substance all experienced a quite different historical
development.
The
emotional mutuality of these charming Balkan lands is based everywhere on the
national, religious and social economical controls, and we can surely seek the
origin of this community in the Thracian components of all Balkan races.
The
capital of Thrace was and is:
