Ethnic identity is a very fluid kind of reality. Isn't that really what the threads original issue's really about? yes but. Apparently over half of the Thracian muslims are of Turkish origin, and they were given rights under the Treaty of Lausanne to education in Turkish. From what I can gather so far, they are more than simply Hellenes of the Muslim faith.

And apparently the govt of Greece denies ANY existence of a slavic minority. Not that they are smaller than 10% of the population, but that they simply dont exist.
