Summary/Abstract: In the course of Word War II, Macedonia was decided between the Bulgarian and the Italian occupying forces. Both of these invaders systematically deported certain categories of inhabitants, largely Serbs and Jews, founding these actions on appropriate legal acts. The Bulgarian invaders initially deported only Serbs and Jews but later Turks, Albanians and Macedonians were also expelled. Serbs found refuge in Serbia but Jews were led away to the Treblinka concentration camp in Poland. Members of other nationalities were also, although in a lesser degree, forced to leave their homes. At the request of the Ustasha government of NDH, Croatians were deported to Croatian territory.These deportations were meant to »correct« the mistakes made by previous Yugoslav regimes. The article is founded on information extracted from Yugoslav and foreign literature and archives.
