&amp;#039;&amp;#039;The Department has noted with considerable apprehension increasing propaganda rumors and semi-official statements in favor of an autonomous Macedonia emanating from Bulgaria, but also from Yugoslav partisan and other sources with the implication that Greek territory would be included in the projected State. This Government considers talk of &amp;quot;Macedonian Nation&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Macedonian Fatherland&amp;quot;, or &amp;quot;Macedonian National Consciousness&amp;quot; to be unjustified demagoguery representing no ethnic or political reality, and sees in its present revival a possible cloak for aggressive intentions against Greece.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

It arose during the Greek [[War of Independence]] in the [[1820s]], where it was a war cry for the [[Greeks]] who rebelled against Ottoman rule. It was adopted after the War of Independence. It is still in use today, and is symbolically evoked by the use of 9 stripes (for the nine syllables of the motto) in the [[Flag of Greece|Greek flag]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The motto symbolized and still symbolizes the resolve of the people of Greece against Tyranny and oppression. &lt;br /&gt;

* The Armenian Fedayee used the phrase, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;quot;Azadoutioun gam mah&amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, which translates to the same meaning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;The Department has noted with considerable apprehension increasing propaganda rumors and semi-official statements in favor of an autonomous Macedonia emanating from Bulgaria, but also from Yugoslav partisan and other sources with the implication that Greek territory would be included in the projected State. This Government considers talk of &amp;quot;Macedonian Nation&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Macedonian Fatherland&amp;quot;, or &amp;quot;Macedonian National Consciousness&amp;quot; to be unjustified demagoguery representing no ethnic or political reality, and sees in its present revival a possible cloak for aggressive intentions against Greece.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I believe that Greece is right  to object and I agree with Athens. The reason is that  I know history, which is not the case with most of the others, including most of the Government and administration in Washington…. The strength of the Greek case is that of  history, which I must say, that Athens has not used so far with success.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[flag]] of [[Greece]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; ({{lang-el|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Σημαία της Ελλάδος&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;}}, popularly referred to as the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Γαλανόλευκη&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Κυανόλευκη&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, the &amp;quot;blue-white&amp;quot;) is based on nine equal horizontal stripes of [[blue]] alternating with [[white]]. There is a blue canton in the upper hoist-side corner bearing a white [[cross]]; the cross symbolises [[Greek Orthodox Church|Greek Orthodox]]y, the established [[religion]] of the country. According to popular tradition, the nine stripes represent the nine [[syllable]]s of the phrase &amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Έλευθερία ή Θάνατος&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;quot; (&amp;quot;Freedom or Death&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; E-lef-the-ri-a i Tha-na-tos&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;quot;), the five blue stripes for the syllables &amp;quot;Έλευθερία&amp;quot; and the four white stripes &amp;quot;ή Θάνατος&amp;quot;. There is also a different theory, that the nine stripes symbolize the nine [[Muses]], the goddesses of art and civilization (nine has traditionally been one of the numbers of reference for the Greeks). The official flag ratio is 2:3.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[blazon]] of the flag is &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Azure, four bars Argent; the canton Azure with a Greek cross throughout Argent.&amp;#039;&amp;#039; The shade of blue used in the flag has varied throughout its history, from light blue to dark blue, the latter being increasingly used since the late 1960s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The above patterns were officially adopted by the [[First National Assembly at Epidaurus]] in January [[1822]]. Blue and white have many interpretations, symbolizing the colors of the famed Greek sky and sea (combined with the white clouds and waves), traditional colors of Greek clothes in the islands and the mainland, etc.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History of the Greek flag==&lt;br /&gt;
The origins of the cross-and-stripe pattern of today&amp;#039;s national flag are a matter of debate. Flags with stripes had been used earlier, while a flag &amp;quot;with a cross and 16 stripes&amp;quot; has been described as an early revolution flag. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has been suggested that the 1822 pattern evolved from a much older design, a virtually identical flag of the powerful [[Crete|Cretan]] Kallergis family (who provided several key military and political figures in Greek history). The flag was based on their coat of arms, whose pattern in turn is supposedly derived from the standards of their ancestor, Byzantine Emperor [[Nicephorus II Phocas]]. This pattern included the nine stripes of alternating blue and white, and the cross on the canton. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The stripe-pattern of the Greek flag is visibly similar to that used in several other flags that have appeared over the centuries, most notably that of the [[British East India Company]]&amp;#039;s pre-1707 flag. However, in such cases of flags derived from much older designs, it is very difficult to prove or trace (possibly mutual) original influences. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is quite possible, nevertheless, that foreign flags may have influenced the preferential adoption of the stripe-pattern, apparently already existing, as the Greek sea flag.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Eleftheria i thanatos&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; ({{lang-el|Ελευθερία ή θάνατος}}, pron. {{IPA|[e̞.le̞f.θe̞.ˈri.ˌa ˈi ˈθa.na.ˌto̞s̠]}}, &amp;quot;freedom or death&amp;quot;) is the [[motto]] of the [[Greece|Hellenic Republic]]. It arose during the Greek War of Independence in the [[1820s]], where it was a war cry for the [[Greece|Greeks]] who rebelled against [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman]] rule. It was adopted after the [[Greek War of Independence]]. It is still in use today, and is symbolically evoked by the use of 9 stripes (for the nine syllables of the motto) in the [[Greek flag]].&lt;br /&gt;
The motto symbolized and still symbolizes the resolve of the people of Greece against Tyranny and oppression. Note that Armenian Fedayee used the phrase, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;quot;Azadoutioun gam mah&amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, which translates to the same meaning, while [[Armenian resistance&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;The Department has noted with considerable apprehension increasing propaganda rumors and semi-official statements in favor of an autonomous Macedonia emanating from Bulgaria, but also from Yugoslav partisan and other sources with the implication that Greek territory would be included in the projected State. This Government considers talk of &amp;quot;Macedonian Nation&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Macedonian Fatherland&amp;quot;, or &amp;quot;Macedonian National Consciousness&amp;quot; to be unjustified demagoguery representing no ethnic or political reality, and sees in its present revival a possible cloak for aggressive intentions against Greece.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I believe that Greece is right  to object and I agree with Athens. The reason is that  I know history, which is not the case with most of the others, including most of the Government and administration in Washington…. The strength of the Greek case is that of  history, which I must say, that Athens has not used so far with success.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
