From "The True Story of Alexander The Great DVD by The History Channel" In the year 334 BC, a 20 year old military commander from Northern Greece set out to conquer what was then the known world. His name was King Alexander of Macedon. During the next 12 years, he led 40,000 troops more than 20,000 miles, defeating the most powerful ruler on Earth, King Darius of Persia, and conquering all of Asia. He died of a battle wound at the age of 32, but his legendary conquests have been celebrated and studied for more than 2000 years. Today, we know him as Alexander the Great. Arguably the most brilliant and courageous warrior in recorded history, a man whom many considered not a mere mortal, but a god. The True Story of Alexander the Great. One of conquest, love, hate, revenge and ultimately tragedy... Hosted by Peter Woodward, the program takes viewers to the Greek locations of Alexander's youth: his father King Philip II's palace in Macedonia, the caves where he was tutored by the famous philosopher Aristotle, the battlefields where he fought by his father's side, the amphitheatre where Alexander watched helplessly as Philip was assassinated. Guided by accounts of ancient historians portrayed by actors, and interviews with the world's most respected modern-day Alexander scholars, this journey continues with visits to the actual battlefields in Turkey and Lebanon where Alexander's troops, though heavily outnumbered, emerged victorious. Alexander's signature battle plans and weaponry are examined and demonstrated using re-enactors and state-of-the art computer graphics.

The dairy of Kraste Misirkov, who is considered the father of the contemporary Macedonian nation, was presented in Skopie on Tuesday and revealed that he saw himself as a "Macedonian Bulgarian". The issue of Misirkov's diary is a joint project of the State Archive of the Republic of Macedonia , and Bulgaria 's State Archives Agency. It includes the period between July 5th and August 30th in 1913, when Misirkov resided in Odessa (today in the Ukraine ). The 381-page diary was found in a Bulgarian antique shop in 2006, and its authenticity has been verified by Bulgarian and Macedonian experts. It is written in Russian, and presents the author in a way contrary to the ideology that he promoted during certain periods of his life. The diary reveals Misirkov saw himself as a Bulgarian, thus disproving the claims of Macedonian historians about his Macedonian identity. In his review of the edition, the Macedonian Professor Vlado Popovski interprets the writings in Misirkov's diary in 1913, right after the Second Balkan War, as follows: "Misirkov presents Bulgaria as a martyr who bore the burnt of the war against the Ottoman Empire... he includes not only Thrace but Macedonia as well in the Bulgarian national unification projects, justifies the Bulgarian claims in Macedonia, and calls the Macedonians "Macedonian Bulgarians"... Misirkov recommends that Bulgaria work the autonomy of Macedonia as a prerequisite towards unifying with it." Popovski points out, however, that the pro-Bulgarian orientation was useful for Macedonia because the European powers would not support its independence. The Macedonian newspaper Utrinski Vesnik quotes another Professor, Gane Todorovski, as saying that Misirkov's "oxymoronic self-declaration as a Macedonian Bulgarian ... is just a complementary and administrative inert legitimating". Yet, Todorovski salutes the issue of Misirkov's diary as a triumph in the bilateral relations, and stresses that many of the most important documents about Macedonia 's history were in the Bulgarian archives. Kraste Misirkov was born in 1874 in Pella , presently in the Greek part of Macedonia , and died in Sofia in 1926. His ethnicity has been disputed by Macedonian historians because at different points in his life he declared himself either Bulgarian, or Macedonian. Misirkov's most important work is the brochure "On Macedonian Matters", which appeared in 1903. He was a respected public figure and journalist in early 20th-century Bulgaria , and when he died, he was still the Director of a high school in the Bulgarian city of Gabrovo , with the Bulgarian government paying for his funeral. Misirkov's oscillations between his Bulgarian and Macedonian identities has fueled-long-lasting disputes about his actual identity. Some authors claim his attitude was explained by the fact that he was an agent of the Bulgarian intelligence, which had tried to inculcate him into the Serbian and Russian secret services.

This video presents the indirect, but unequivocal recognition of the Bulgarian characters of the Slavs of FYROM by Mr. Antonio Milososki [ - Antonio Milo oski - ], its current Minister for Foreign Affairs, via two articles in the local daily newspaper "Utrinski vesnik" (" ") from 2006, when he did not have a political office: 1. An article in which he claims that the s.c. "Macedonian Patriotic Organization" -- MPO , an ardent Bulgarian nationalistic--conservative organization operating for decades chiefly in USA and Canada , is the true keeper of the authentic identity of his people, preserved by emigrants from Geographical Macedonia, most of them emigrating before WW II. 2. An article in which he acknowledges a wrongdoing by the Communist regime in case of its political opponents, listing people of which some are known for their opposition to the system on the basis of their Bulgarian nationalism, and their cause as just. Brief montage of the facsimiles of the original articles are given, together with evidence from the official site of the MPO which indicates that this organizations considers the Slavs of FYROM as ethnic Bulgarians ( ), in present and historical sense as its giuding idea and official policy.

During 2002 in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, 6 Pakistani and 1 Indian citizen, were captured by police and few days later executed in the locality of Rastanski Lozja. The aim of the organizer, Ljube Boskoski, then FYROM's Minister of Interior, was to present them to the World as "terrorists who were about to attack embassies in the capital Skopje". The subsequent government confessed that this was a case of an extra-judicial killing.
