Considering the fact that Balkan populations (besides Greece) have 40-70% Pre-Slavic Balkan admixture, how do you feel about the other half of your ancestors who lived in the regions your country is today. Do people in your country honour them, in some sort of way, like Greeks and Romanians, or simply don't care about them, like most of the South-Slavic populations.
I think it's connected to the fact that non-Slavic speaking populations weren't that affected by the newly-arrived Slavic cultures and still could hold on to their own. A similar thing happened after the Hellenization and Turkification of Anatolia, the ancient cultures like the Hittites (who were a world power) are nothing more than a culture of ruins.
A shame, the ancient peoples were quite badass and respected by the Romans. The Dacians, for example, were unlike other populations, never shown hand-cuffed in Roman art. They also were very important to the Roman defence. Here are the Illyrian-Roman/Byzantine emperors (you probably recognise some names):
- Decius - ruled AD 249–251
- Herennius Etruscus - ruled AD 251
- Hostilianus - ruled AD 251
- Claudius II "Gothicus" - ruled AD 268–270
- Quintillus - ruled AD 270
- Aurelian - ruled AD 270–275
- Probus - ruled AD 276–282
- Diocletian - ruled AD 284–305
- Maximianus "Herculius" - ruled AD 286–305
- Constantius Chlorus - ruled AD 305-306
- Galerius - ruled AD 305-311
- Constantine I - ruled AD 306–337
- Licinius - ruled AD 308-324
- Constantius II - ruled AD 337-361
- Jovian - ruled AD 363–364
- Valentinianus I - ruled AD 364–375
- Valens - ruled AD 364–378
- Gratian - ruled AD 375–383

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!

They’re on standbi
Pilot on me!!
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
