The Culture In Macedonia

Bang! A shot is fired and a war begins. Not in Macedonia though. The area known as Macedonia has managed to stay peaceful for many years and probably many more to come. It is a relatively poor area but a self-sufficient peaceful paradise to its citizens.

Macedonia is an area consisting of 26,000 square miles located in southeast Europe on the northern part of the Balkan Peninsula. It is part of Greece, Bulgaria, and Yugoslavia. It is an area filled with mountains and high lands with valleys, rivers, and small lakes everywhere in-between. The entire area has only three large lakes where people fish and the population is dense. The valleys have rivers running through them then biggest one being the Vardar River all of which help to prevent flooding in populated areas by draining the water out to the ocean. Macedonia doesn’t border any oceans so tidal waves, hurricanes, and tsunamis aren’t a threat to anyone.

Macedonia is in a temperate zone giving it hot summers and cold winters. On average Macedonia has 30 inches of precipitation some of it rain and some of it snow.

However near the three major lakes about a small amount more of the money is made by fishing. The inflation is 1.1% meaning prices only rise a small amount each year. There is a 37% unemployment rate leaving many Macedonians without jobs which contributes to the economy being poor. Despite being fairly poor there is still some good technology in Macedonia. There are about 408,000 telephone lines, 12,300 mobile phones, 31 television channels, and six isps or internet service providers which are the companies that allow you to connect to the internet which has 100,000 users. So despite all the unemployment living in Macedonia isn’t like living in the Stone Age.

In Macedonia anybody can be any religion they want without criticism from the government. Although they have freedom of religion the dominant religion with 60% of the citizens is Orthodox Christian. 5.2% of Macedonians are Atheists, 0.5% are Muslims and the rest are various (about thirty) other religions. Macedonians spend their time fa
