Macedonia‟s geographical position is strategically significant and it greatly contributed to Macedonia‟s power in the 4th Century BC when, under the leadership of Philip of Macedon and Alexander the Great, became the most powerful state in the ancient world. Its present status is a direct legacy of the Balkan Wars of 1912-13 when Serbia, Greece and Bulgaria formed alliances to liberate Macedonia from Turkish rule. The country was carved up by the victors, Vardar Macedonia – was taken over by Serbia, Pirin Macedonia – by Bulgaria, Aegean Macedonia – Greece, and a small part went to Albania (Mala Prespa). This basic division remained in place with the post-World War I peace settlement. In 1944, Vardar Macedonia entered the Yugoslav federation, while other parts of Macedonia stayed within the other countries. With the breakup of Yugoslavia, Vardar Macedonia became an independent republic in 1991, Republic of Macedonia. Soon after this, Greece began an intense international campaign against the use of the name Macedonia. Pending resolution of a naming dispute with Greece, R. Macedonia was admitted to the United Nations (1993) under the provisional

  • Aap Submission to the Senate Inquiry on Media Diversity
    AAP SUBMISSION TO THE SENATE INQUIRY ON MEDIA DIVERSITY AAP thanks the Senate for the opportunity to make a submission on the Inquiry into Media Diversity in Australia. What is a newswire A newswire is essentially a wholesaler of fact-based news content (text, pictures and video). It reports on politics, business, courts, sport and other news and provides this to other media outlets such as newspapers, radio and TV news. Often the newswire provides the only reporting on a subject and hence its decisions as to what to report play a very important role in informing Australians about matters of public interest. It is essential democratic infrastructure. A newswire often partners with other global newswire agencies to bring international stories to a domestic audience and also to take domestic stories out to a global audience. Newswires provided by news agencies have traditionally served as the backbone of the news supply of their respective countries. Due to their business model they contribute strongly to the diversity of media. In general there is a price for a defined number of circulation – be it printed papers, recipients of TV or radio broadcasters or digital recipients. The bigger the circulation, the higher the price thus making the same newswire accessible for small media with less purchasing power as well as for large media conglomerates with strong financial resources.1 ​ This co-operative business model has been practically accepted world-wide since the founding of the Associated Press (AP) in the USA in the mid-19th century. Newswire agencies are “among the oldest ​ media institutions to survive the evolution of media production from the age of the telegraph to the age of 2 platform technologies”.
