I was in Skopje for a wedding last year, very interesting country. Felt very Balkans to me, minus of course the “Greek” statues.

It’s funny to think about this useless arguments of pride between nations, but the effect is very much serious. It’s a poor country, which probably would be very different as an EU member,

It’s a poor country, which probably would be very different as ~~an EU member,~~ a member of Yugoslavia.

There, fixed it for you.
