The idea that the Balkans consists of so many nations, who are of different ethnicities – God knows what they actually mean by it and how they define it, whose languages are so different that the British Empire had no choice but to divide the Peninsula of less than half a million square kilometers into 11 countries is not only an inconsistent argument, but a very misleading British deception.
Language has never been a criterion which the British Empire has used in order to form its administrative states around the world. It is true that language is used to unify somehow the people of the newly formed states and instill in them a new identity, but that has not been the criterion.
There are countries in the world whose people speak tens or even hundreds of different languages, and in many cases such languages and dialects are totally mutually unintelligible. India, Papa New Guinea, China, Russia and many regions in Africa or South America are some examples. Therefore, the British Empire has not applied the criterion of language in order to form countries or administrative states, otherwise there would have been thousands of countries.
There are other criteria which the British Empire has used when forming the new countries, such as guaranteeing permanent conflicts, exploitation of natural resources, not letting Muslims form a big country, and the formation of other Secular powers in order to dominate the world easier, typically the formation of the USSR (now Russia) and the People’s Republic of China – the biggest allies of the British Empire.
In the Middle East, for example, even though people speak the same language, especially in the Arabian Peninsula, the British Empire has split it into some dozen countries and sometimes one country has a territory within another one, as it is the case of the UAE and Oman. The Arabian Peninsula could have not become one Muslim country because it would have become dangerous for the British Empire. China and Russia, on the other hand, should remain big because they are the biggest allies of the British Empire and the US Government.
Likewise the Balkans could have not been allowed by the British Empire to form one country because at the beginning of the 20th century Muslims were the majority. If Muslims had formed a single country in the Balkans, they would have become a very powerful state in Europe. The objective has been not to let Muslims flourish, but kill and expel them. So, clearly the British Empire and the US Government split the Balkans only to harm Muslims, and they continue to propose ideas to incite more conflicts and split it even more.
Again, language or ethnicity have nothing to do with the balkanization of the Balkans. This is a British and American deception. The British Empire is a master of lies. It always appears to be heedless of the most important factor, for which it is fighting.
