Abstract

After 1878, the fate of Macedoniawasthe predominant issue in the Bulgarian political life. This was an issue that could raise the people and unite the political parties. Skopje’s historiography accuses the Bulgarian Exarchate that, except its ecclesiastical, educational and cultural activities it was also hiding political motives. The Greek policy towards Macedonia originated from the “Megali Idea”. The influence of Greece in Macedonia through the Patriarchate was incomparable until the establishment of the Bulgarian Exarchate. The ever-growing number of Orthodox believers passing under the Exarchate jurisdiction led to Patriarchate ecclesiastical policy modification. Serbia was in the weakest position of the three countries interested. In fact, their initial task was to convince the Great Powers that they really had a just claim to Macedonia. Serbian propaganda in Macedonia used a variety of methods. As a result of continuous efforts and support from Romania, the Vlachs also opened their own schools and gained certain ecclesiastical rights.
