Macedonia Heading

[edit]

Here are entered works on the ancient country and kingdom of Macedonia, which later became a Roman province, as well as works on the region in the central Balkan Peninsula of somewhat indefinite boundaries, but including the Macedonia region of Greece, most of the middle Vardar Valley in the Macedonian Republic of the former Yugoslavia, and southwest Bulgaria west of the Mesta River. Works on the jurisdiction and the regions resulting from the division of Macedonia in 1912/1913 are entered under their own names.
