Umm hello? Greece has contested Macedonia's claim to that name as Greece has historically laid claim to the region known as Macedonia. The compromise is to use this official "title". At any rate, if some host nation's language had Macedonia starting with say an A, then they would technically jump way ahead. :P
The Greeks wouldn't care if it wasn't for the fact that Megas Alexandros (Alexander the great) was from Macedonia. The ironic twist is that Alex conquered the Greeks and made them part of his Macedonian empire. Alex was born in the town of Pella, which is today part of Greece.

At the start what you hear is Jean-Michel Jarre's "Chronologie 4'
