The state's name derives from the Greek Μακεδονία (Makedonía). The name was used for Macedonian Empire, later for the Roman Province, Byzantian theme Macedonia, until today for the region Macedonia and the state Macedonia. The name is believed to have originally meant either highlanders or the tall ones, possibly descriptive of the people.
Archaeological findings show that civilization existed on the territory of Macedonia from the period between 9000 BC. and 3500 BC For the first time, the Macedonian Kingdom appears in the 9th century BC, and there is a dilemma about who was the first Macedonian king - Karan (considered to be the mythical ancestor of the Argeades) or Perdiccas I (the first historical king of the Kingdom of Macedonia) .
The penetration of the Roman Republic to the east leads to the so-called Macedonian-Roman wars (215 BC - 168 BC) in which the Macedonian Kingdom, led by the Antigonine Dynasty, falls entirely under Roman rule, and the last Macedonian king Perseus was taken as a slave to Rome. It becomes a Roman province as part of the Roman Empire and is divided into two parts - Macedonia Prima and Macedonia Salutaris. In 837 AD, Macedonia began to fall under the rule of the Bulgarian state, and by the middle of the IX century most of Macedonia fell under Bulgarian rule and the other part was included in the Byzantine Empire.
By the end of the XIV century, Macedonia was completely subdued by the Ottomans, thus destroying its economic and social system, as well as its further social and cultural development. After the First World War, Macedonia became part of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and is known as the "Vardar Banovina", after the Second World War became an equal republic in the SFRY until 1991.Since 1993 Macedonia has been known as FYROM due to the veto which Greece has put in the UN on the name Macedonia. The longstanding dispute was resolved in 2018 with the "Prespa Agreement" since Macedonia agreed to use the name North Macedonia. From 11.02.2019 it is officially called the Republic of North Macedonia.

Ohrid – city of UNESCO
Ohrid is a city in the southwestern part of Macedonia. The Lake Ohrid carries its name. Ohrid Lake - the largest and most significant natural lake in Macedonia, from the biological point of view is the most important stagnant water ecosystem of the continent. Its geological age is estimated at about 2-3 million years and is the oldest in Europe.Thanks to these characteristics, in 1980 the Ohrid Lake and the city of Ohrid were declared a World Heritage Site, under the protection of UNESCO. The global importance of the lake is confirmed in 2010. when NASA and the International Astronomical Union decide one of the lakes of Saturn's moon Titan to be named "Ohrid Lake" (Latin Lacus). Ohrid and Ohrid Lake are one of the main tourist destinations in Macedonia. Due to the large number of churches and monasteries, the city is named Balkan and European Jerusalem. Turkish traveler Evliya Celebija visited Ohrid in the 14th century and noticed that there are 365 churches there, as there are days in the year. Ohrid is also known as the "City of Light", a literal translation of its old name, Lychnidos.
The modern Ohrid is the heir of the ancient Lychnidos. According to the data, the city is first mentioned 2,400 years before the new era. Lihnidos was on the Via Egnatia, the oldest and most notorious Roman traffic road. The Ohrid region at the end of the 6th century was exposed to mass Slavic colonization. The Ohrid region until the 1930s was completely colonized by the Slavic tribe Berziti. Lihnid has since then been named Ohrid.
