Alekos, I agree with you 100%, but FYROM is already called "FYR of Macedonia" in the game, so what exactly are you asking for?
PS. It was DoctorBalendar, me, Peritri and a few other Greek users who made a fuss about it a few years back, so that SI changed "Macedonia" to "Macedonia FYR". It is not realistic to expect that they change it to Skopje, since everybody else call them some very-long-name-that-includes-Macedonia-in-it.

In a nutshell, our government focked up, we did the best we could, SI did the best they could, and that's about it. Or am I missing something?

| Totally agreed. In a way, i think this issue is similar to the whole Chinese Taipei (China PR)/Taiwan issue a few years back in FM05

For a football game, the argument ends there.

well said. (EU and NATO also recognise it as FYROM)
it doesn't matter on what name the country is known, SI should use the official name since they release the game internationally

Why is greece in the game? Greece is really just like 2 islands and the rest of it is Macedonia. Not even worth putting Greece in the game. They dont like there own history so they steal other countries' histories.
Republic of Macedonia forever!

This is a really small and fairly irrelevant oversight on SI's part, your making it a problem by imagining anyone at SI knows about the situation(real life), they don't and they didn't mean to stir a racial hornets nest up.

| That's because there was a gentleman named Tito and his Partizan comrades that generally kept things rather polite and orderly back then |
