Skopje, August 14, 2010 (HIM)
As the forceful and charismatic king of Macedonia, Alexander the Great overthrew the Persian Empire, laying the foundation for the Macedonian period. He became a hero of legends that would survive centuries after his death.
Alexander the Great’s Early Life
Born in 356 B.C. in Pella, Macedonia, Alexander III was the son of Philip II of Macedon and Olympias, daughter of King Neoptolemus of Epirus. Alexander’s parents wanted him to receive the finest education possible, and arranged for him to study under Aristotle, regarded as one of the greatest scholars who ever lived. From the ages of approximately 13 to 16, Aristotle instructed Alexander in languages, philosophy, medicine, rhetoric and scientific investigation.

Millions of outsiders eligible for EU passports
Skopje, August 6, 2010 (HIM)
Passport loopholes offered by three EU nations could be indirectly expanding the boundaries of the bloc -- potentially giving nearly 5 million outsiders, mostly from Europe’s poorest countries, the coveted right to live and work in the union.
The possible influx represents the most immediate challenge to the European Union, which is grappling with tight labor markets and a wave of anti-immigrant sentiment. But those numbers could be swollen by millions more -- immigrants or their descendants living in other hardship regions who are also eligible for EU citizenship under passport giveaways.

MACEDONIA
Macedonia, an ethnically mixed state of two million, is an official candidate for EU membership but prospects are clouded by a dispute with neighbouring Greece. Athens blocked Skopje's bid to join NATO in 2008, saying the country's name implies territorial claims to the northern Greek province of Macedonia. Greece said it will not allow Macedonia to advance in its EU path until a compromise is reached. Almost 18 years of U.N.-mediated talks have yet to produce a solution.
