Republic of Macedonia
The Republic of Macedonia (Macedonian: Republika Makedonij%a / Republika Makedonija, listen help·info), Albanian: Republika e Maqedonisë}, often referred to as Macedonia, is a landlocked country on the Balkan peninsula in southeastern Europe. It is bordered by Serbia to the north, Albania to the west, Greece to the south, and Bulgaria to the east. As the result of a naming dispute with Greece, in 1993 it was admitted to the United Nations under the provisional reference the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), pending resolution of the dispute.^Administrative divisions
Since 2004 Macedonia is divided into 84 municipalities, out of which 33 have seats in towns or cities, 41 have seats in villages, and 10 make up the capital city of .
Macedonia has such a large number of municipalities in such a small country to accommodate its ethnic minorities. The law says that if 20% or over of the population of a municipality is of a certain minority, the language of that minority is co-official in that municipality along with Macedonian. If some small municipalities were incorporated into the large ones, most minorities would lose the right to have schools, signs, etc. in their native language, and could not use it in their administrations and official documents. It also gives small communities control over their administrative budgets, empowering them to invest money in their local infrastructure which, if they were incorporated into a bigger municipality, would probably be spent elsewhere. Shuto Orizari Municipality (better known as Shutka), which is part of the city of , is the only place in the world where Gypsy is a co-official language. Gypsies make up 60% of the population in Shutka.
