Macedonia is a new country located in the central Balkan peninsula in Southeast

Europe. It is one of the successor states of the former Yugoslavia, from which it

declared independence in 1991. It became a member of the United Nations in

1993 but, as a result of a dispute with Greece over its name, it was admitted

under the provisional reference of the former Yugoslav Republic of

Macedonia,sometimes abbreviated as FYROM. A landlocked country, the

Republic of Macedonia is bordered by Kosovo to the northwest, Serbia to the

north, Bulgaria to the east, Greece to the south and Albania to the west. It

constitutes approximately the northwestern half of the larger geographical

region of Macedonia, which also comprises parts of Greece and Bulgaria. The

country's capital is Skopje, with 506,926 inhabitants according to a 2002

census.
