The MACEDONIAN ASSOCIATION OF NEW JERSEY “ALEXANDER THE GREAT” was formed after the big march in Washington DC, in 1992, when thousands of Greek Americans and Philhellenes united to raise their voices against the misrepresentation and falsification of history regarding the name MACEDONIA.
«Η ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΑ ήταν, είναι και πάντα θα είναι Ελληνική»
