WHY GOCE DELCEV MATTERS | #MariosHistoryTalks & UMD GenM BONUS Lecture
Happy #MacedoniaMonday! Goce Delčev: The man, the myth, the legend. He's in your church hall. There's a photo of him in classrooms all across Macedonia. (And if you're really patriotic, a photo of him in your home). However, he lived for 31 years, and only worked for the Macedonian cause for 9 years. Yet he's considered immortal now--so much even the Bulgars claim him! However, this wasn't always the case. Let's take a deep dive into history and find out why Goce Delčev, in only 9 years, has rightfully become a giant in our Macedonian history.
