Great video! What was the food like in North Macedonia? Was it similar to Greek food or Serbian food?

[@TravelsbyAlex]

Thank you! The food was excellent. They have a great variety of food and there's definitely something for everyone. I hope you get to experience their cuisine if you ever visit 😁

[@SpellsandCurses]

Never thought to visit Macedonia. How historic and pretty 😍

[@TravelsbyAlex]

Me too! North Macedonia is pretty cool - I hope you get to visit it one day. 🙌🏻

Macedonia looks beautiful! Reminds me of Athens a little bit. Ummmm I want to see all of New York?

[@TravelsbyAlex]

It definitely brought back some memories for sure! And stay tuned, the next few videos will be all about NYC 🗽!

Of course Skopje has nothing to do with Alexander the Great who was born near Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece and his Greek Macedonian kingdom barely extended to the southernmost part of the modern country of North Macedonia. If there ever was an attitude which best expressed the term 'cultural appropriation' the attitude of 75% of the current citizens of that state, this is it. Their only relation with Ancient Macedonia is that at some point in the late 19th century they decided to call themselves 'Macedonians' to differentiate themselves from the Bulgarians with which they share the same slavic language, for political reasons.
