Hello everyone, does anyone here have any good articles or sources that discusses Macedonias involvement in WWI? I know of the "Macedonian Front" but I am unable to find much information about the people living there during this time, but rather the invading countries using the region as a theater of War (Austrians against British and French for example), and that there are graveyards of British and French soldiers in Skopje and elsewhere.
I recently started watching a YouTube series that talks about WWI in incredible details (week by week), but they have skipped over the First and Second Balkan Wars and on the map they just have Vardar Macedonia as a part of Serbia. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUc...PEDf69RRVhRh4A
I have only started watching these videos so it would be interesting if they mention "Macedonians" later on, thus far no mention.
I would have imagined for example that Macedonians living in that region would have fought for the Serbs against the Austro-Hungarians? I have no stories from my family from WWI (in contrast, a lot of great uncles and even a grandfather that has served in WWII). Considering the area was part of a number of big battles, I doubt the people living there would not have contributed in some shape or form?
