@@FastEddieDice Alexandroupolis existed in antiquity with the ancient name Sali, which was founded by the Maronites. The modern city was founded in the middle of the 19th century by fishermen from Ainos and the villages of Makri and Maroneia, making it known as Dedeağaç (Turkish: Dedeağaç)... -The name was given by the Turks (it makes sense, Greece was under Ottoman occupation). The founders, however, were Greeks.
@@FastEddieDice Whether Ancient or new, Greeks founded it. I also mentioned the 3 villages whose residents founded Alexandroupolis - Dedeağaç. You didn't read the whole answer.

Alexandropolis, as the name says, alexandro polis. It's a completely Greek name, and it says Alexander city. So it's not an Ottoman Empire founded city, but a city founded by Alexander the Great. He gave his name to the city.
As a greek, I would like to contribute the conversation with some facts. The origin of the greek name of the city came from the King Alexandros I who visited the city after its liberation of the ottoman rule in 1920 and the local authorities decided to rename the city (to Alexandroupolis/Alexandroupoli = city of Alexandros), in his honor. At that time, Greece was a kingdom and King Alexandros I ruled the country for a very short period of time before he died by a monkey bite. However, the founders of the city were greeks at the antiquity era. Its ancient name was Sali (Σάλη))
@andim197 You are actually right. I was wrong, as i targeted to the name, and wrongly thought that it was from Alexander the Great, (like Alexandria in Egypt) . But in this case it was from King Alexander, as you said.
You should take a trip with your turkish friend in Asia minor, what is called turkey today" and see if you can find one city that is not founded by Hellenes.
Who founded a city should be about more than who showed up first. For example, can we say New York was founded by the Native Americans? The region of Asia Minor has a long history, maybe the longest in the world. Specific to the "longest in the world," the city that comes to mind is Şanlıurfa. During the Hellenistic period, it was known as Edessa. But you can go back much further than that. Right nearby is a Neolithic settlement founded around 9500 BC (referred to now as Göbekli Tepe). That said, I don't think any city that was built on a site that had been abandoned for a very large period of time owes its history to whatever civilization happened to have also settled in the area long before. A lot of commentors mentioned that Dedeağaç (now Alexandroupoli) was originally Sali, founded by settlers from Samothraki, and therefore Dedeağaç wasn't founded under the Ottomans. While it's true that once that area (or near that area) was settled thanks to people from Samothraki, it is also true that the settlement was abandoned and, only after hundreds of years passed, new settlers arrived to start from scratch during the Ottoman period. So disregarding cities that were founded but then abandoned for centuries, there are a lot of cities in Turkey that owe nothing to the Hellenistic period: Yalova, Osmaniye, Mersin (shout out to the American Civil War), Tokat, Eskişehir, Çanakkale, Balıkesir, Adıyaman, Çorlu, Kırıkkale, Aksaray, it goes on and on.
@@FastEddieDice Naming all Hellenic cities in todays would take all day. Since the presens of Hellines in anatolia goes back thousands of years an that turks tribes arrived in the area in the 11 century the question "who was there first" is a no brainer. Lets just name regions in todays turkey that still have keept there Hellenic names; Kastamonu (Κασταμονή), Sinop (Σινόπη), Samsun (Σαμσούντα), Giresun (Κερασούντα), Trabzon (Τραπεζούντα), Rize (Ριζούντα), Kutahya (Κοτύαιον), Bursa (Προύσα) , Manisa (Μαγνησία), Antalya named after king Attalos, Konya (Ικόνιο), Isparta (Σπάρτη).

What's all this hangup with the names? Baklava is obviously Arab. Nobody calls strained yogurt "Greek yogurt" in Greece. Yogurt in general existed in the Balkans since the ancient times (B.C.), and I doubt it's specific to Greece. All the towns that you're mentioning Turkish names for, isn't this just cherry picking? obviously the whole of Turkey for example didn't have a single "Turkish named town" at one point, since there were no Turks there till around 1040. And there were obviously no Greeks there before the Ionian settlements of 500B.C. When does this end exactly?
LoL there were Greeks in Asia Minor since long before 500BC. The Ionian migration started during the Bronze Age, and it succeeded the Aeolian migration, which succeeded other migrations - remember the Troyans.
I wonder why Turks, Arabs and Persian people have not objected to the presentation of "baklav", "mousaka", "yogurt" (and so on) as traditionally greek, while the names at least midle eastern. According to a Turk in a similar discussion, "yogurt" is a Turkish word, more descriptive for this state of milk than in greek. Perhaps there is an originally greek word for us neogreeks to use everyday. Like other words e.g. "kouvas" (=bucket in turkish) while the greek word is "dohion". Or "mpogia" (colour) instead of "chroma" ("chros" is the skin in greek, not used as is in everyday life today).
@@savvassyrmopoulos5570 Yogurt being a turkish word does not mean that yogurt is originally Turkish, in the same way Oregano was a plant with wide distribution that got a Greek name eventually. As for baklava and mousaka, Turks were nomads and nomad diet is based on meat and dairy.
