More about Macedonia
After the anti-Turkish popular uprising in 1875 and the Russo-Turkish War (1877–78), Macedonia (except Thessaloniki) became the Principality of Bulgaria in the preliminary peace of San Stefano (3 March 1878), but at the Berlin Congress (13 June – 13 July 1878) again assigned to the Ottoman Empire (since then again geographical name Macedonia).
