* 338 BC - A Macedonian army led by Philip II defeated the combined forces of Athens and Thebes in the Battle of Chaeronea, securing Macedonian hegemony in Greece and the Aegean. 
Battle of Chaeronea (338 BC) needs a bit expanding, though.  Maybe next year.  One option would be to bold Philip II of Macedon but the date needs to be added there to qualify. -- PFHLai 16:11, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

message: I have changed the line about the 1903 Ilinden Uprising, because it was misleading, referring to "Bulgarians" who carried out the uprising. If you look at the Kruševo Manifesto, which was issued on the date of the Uprising by its leaders, it speaks about "Autonomous Macedonia", "blood-stained Macedonian land", and "good sons of Macedonia". The full text of the Manifesto, in English, is here.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Crnorizec (talk • contribs) 17:28, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

message: This characterization does not appear to be supported by Majorian's article, which emphasizes the degree to which he conciliated the Senate (in contrast to his predecessor) and places the responsibility for Majorian's deposition almost exclusively on Ricimer.
