1. Navn:<\/strong>\u00a0Makedonias offisielle navn er \"Republikken Makedonia\" i henhold til landets egen grunnlov. I internasjonale kretser omtales landet imidlertid som \"Den tidligere jugoslaviske republikken Makedonia\" (FYROM), ettersom Makedonia har en tvist med Hellas om navnet Makedonia - les mer nederst i artikkelen.<\/p>\n

2. Mor Theresa:<\/strong>\u00a0Mor Theresa ble f\u00f8dt i Makedonias hovedstad Skopje av albanske foreldre i 1910. I dag finnes det et museum dedikert til henne i sentrum av Skopje.<\/p>\n

3. Kuklica:<\/strong>\u00a0Omtrent 8 km fra byen Kratovo ligger den lille landsbyen Kuklica med rundt 100 innbyggere. Kuklica er kjent for sine steins\u00f8yler som ligner mennesker, og har derfor f\u00e5tt tilnavnet \"steinbyen\". If\u00f8lge lokalbefolkningen dukker det opp nye steins\u00f8yler hvert 5.-6. \u00e5r.<\/p>\n

4. Fortau:<\/strong>\u00a0I Makedonia brukes ikke fortauene til \u00e5 g\u00e5 p\u00e5, men til parkering.<\/p>\n

5. Deni:<\/strong>\u00a0Den makedonske valutaen heter \"denarer\" (eller \"makedonske denarer\"), og den minste enheten er 1 - det er alts\u00e5 ingen \u00f8rer, slik vi kjenner det fra de nordiske kronene. Tidligere fantes de imidlertid under navnet \"deni\", men ble avskaffet p\u00e5 grunn av sin lave verdi og sjeldenhet.<\/p>\n

Fakta: Mavrovo-sj\u00f8en er en popul\u00e6r turistattraksjon som er mest kjent for sin halvt sunkne kirke.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

6. Arbeidsledighet:<\/strong>\u00a0Arbeidsledighet er et stort problem i Makedonia og har v\u00e6rt det siden Jugoslavias sammenbrudd i 1991. Ungdomsledigheten (blant 15-24-\u00e5ringer) var 53,9% i 2013, mens den var 30% for hele samfunnet.<\/p>\n

7. Kokino:<\/strong>\u00a0If\u00f8lge NASA er Kokino i Makedonia det fjerde eldste astronomiske observatoriet i verden. De tre eldste er: Abu Simbel (Egypt), Stonehenge (Storbritannia) og Angkor Wat (Kambodsja). Kokino ligger 30 km fra byen Kumanovo og ca. 6 km fra grensen til Serbia.<\/p>\n

8. Ohridsj\u00f8en:<\/strong>\u00a0Ohridsj\u00f8en ble dannet for 4-5 millioner \u00e5r siden og har en gjennomsnittlig dybde p\u00e5 155 meter, noe som gj\u00f8r den til en av de eldste og dypeste innsj\u00f8ene i verden. Den har 200 endemiske dyrearter (dvs. arter som bare finnes i omr\u00e5det) og har st\u00e5tt p\u00e5 UNESCOs verdensarvliste siden 1979.<\/p>\n

9. Tusen\u00e5rskorset:<\/strong>\u00a0Tusen\u00e5rskorset er et 66 meter h\u00f8yt kors som st\u00e5r p\u00e5 toppen av Vodno-fjellet i Skopje. Det ble reist i 2002 til minne om kristendommens 2000 \u00e5r i Makedonia og resten av verden.<\/p>\n

10. Mavrovo-sj\u00f8en:<\/strong>\u00a0Mavrovosj\u00f8en er en av de mest popul\u00e6re turistattraksjonene i Makedonia. Den ligger 1000 meter over havet, ca. 100 km fra Skopje. I midten av innsj\u00f8en ligger en halvt nedsenket kirke, noe som bidrar til dens popularitet.<\/p>\n
