Introduction / History

The Macedonians are a southern Slavic people and speak the Macedonian language which is a part of the South Slavic group of languages. The modern Macedonians developed as a result of the mixing of the Slavs that came on the Balkans in 6th AD century, with local peoples that were living in North Macedonia prior to their coming. By absorbing the peoples living in North Macedonia, the Slavs also absorbed their culture, and in that amalgamation a people was gradually formed with predominantly Slavic ethnic elements, speaking a Slavic language and with a Slavic-Byzantine culture.

After being nearly 50 years a federal republic in Yugoslavia, on 8 September 1991 Macedonia proclaimed its independence. From 1991 till today North Macedonia has been walking the road towards becoming more like the countries of Western Europe. Some have migrated to Western European countries like Denmark.
