Greece and Turkey are part of the Balkans...
Personally I think that it would be much better if this was done at a club level...
think of this...
Crvena Zvezda (Srbija)
Partizan (yugoslavia)
Olympiakos (Greece)
Panathinaikos (Greece)
Hajduk Split (Cro)
Dinamo (Cro)
Levski (Bulgaria)
CSKA (Bulgaria)
Galatassary (Turkey)
Steua Buchurest (Romania)
Maribor (Slov)
one more Romanian, one more Turkish and one more Slovenian and 2 tams from Hungary and you've got a 16 team tournament...four groups of four, with the top two teams in each group moving on to the second round, 2 groups of 4, then inter-group play, home-away legs and the top two from each group go into the semis and so on and so forth all the way to Zvezda being crowned Balkan Champions....
that would be amazing, if it didn't start a war...imagine 5000 Zvezda supports going to Zagreb or Split to support their team in a tournament like this...wow....it would be chaos...
nice to dream though....
