 Are you guys trying to say that you know what the interviewer and Karev really meant? You're right, Foreigner, we mustn't assume, but he didn't say he was Bulgarian, did he? Karev simply said ""Macedonian"", and he said that he didn't know whether the Macedonians were Greeks, but that he was Macedonian, and that he was a direct descendant of the Ancient Macedonians! And you still say that he meant it regionally? A direct descendant of the Ancient Macedonians - regionally? =)) We really shouldn't tell what he meant, but one thing is certain: he said he was Macedonian, a direct descendant of the Ancient Macedonians!
