Hatzopoulos argues that there was no real ethnic difference between Macedonians and Greeks, only a political distinction contrived after the creation of the League of Corinth in 337 BC (which was led by Macedonia through the league's elected hegemon Philip II, despite him not being a member of the league itself).
Hatzopoulos berpendapat bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan etnis yang sesungguhnya di antara orang Makedonia dan Yunani, hanya perbedaan politik yang dibuat-buat setelah pendirian Liga Korintos pada tahun 337  SM (yang dipimpin oleh hegemon Philip  II dari Makedonia, walaupun ia bukanlah anggota liga itu sendiri).
