The Existence of a Macedonian minority in Bulgaria

[TrueMacedonian]

I want to know more about this agreement that was signed between macedonia and Bulgaria, where the macedonian government is not to support the macedonians in Pirin:

Im assuming that it was that bugaroman traitor Ljubčo Georgievski that agreed to signing this treacherous act?

The macedonian government needs to eliminate this rubbish and self hating agreement. I personally think that macedonians in Pirin can actually be saved and preserved more easily and with greater success then the macedonians in Grease. We owe it to the poor pirin macedonians for forgeting about them and turning our backs to them....

Surely there is a way to eliminate this agreement?

I think that our friends in the MHRMI and the AMHRC may be able to answer this for us.

Macedonian political meeting in Gorna Djumaja - now Blagoevgrad:



The city square in around 1930:


A photo taken from the same angle on 12th February in 1934 year on the occasion of the Macedonian Assembly rally on the city square.
The text clearly says:
"МАКЕДОНЦИ, РАЗЧИТАЙТЕ ПРЕДИ ВСИЧКО НА СЕБЕ СИ!"

translated:
" MACEDONIANS, FIRST OF ALL RELY ON YOURSELVES!"

If you notice something here every ethnic group is given a % except for the Macedonian bracket. I wonder if this was the original way the census was shown or if this Bulgar author decided not to make a note of this for obvious propaganda reasons? What do you guys think?

TM you are a champion

91,131 Macedonians? there's way more.

91,131 Macedonians? there's way more.

The table writes 7.000.

91.131 are the "Others" (below "others include Armenians,Greeks,Russians,Jews,Vlachs,etc)

[TrueMacedonian]

Fredo is right. The census states 7000 for Macedonians in Bulgaria. Here's more info on the Macedonian minority from the same book;

[Risto the Great]

Givin half of Sofia and almost all of Pirin was populated by Macedonians 100 years ago, surely it is safe to assume that many Macedonians have not been particularly true to themselves.

[Pelister]

The number they give for the Macedonians - '7,000' is a clear fabrication.

BULGARIA: Usual Crisis
Monday, Sept. 17, 1928

The Cabinet of Prime Minister Andrei Liapchev fell, last week, for the usual reason: trouble with the belligerent Macedonian Minority.

A few days later His Majesty Tsar Boris called upon M. Liapchev to form another cabinet, for the usual reason: after other statesmen have had their try at assembling a Government, they are usually willing to compromise again on Liapchev. M. Liapchev duly formed another cabinet, but it, too, fell.

If there were 800,000 Macedonians then Macedonian parties would get in Parliament there. Still its an interesting topic, but the ethnic map depends on how people identify themselves, for instance there could be 100,000 Macedonians , but just 90,000 identify themselves as such .
