; Skopje, Makedonija
Sažetak
It is well known that Skopje is an old town. Emperor Justinian I after a catastrophic earthquake that destroyed the Roman town of Scupi in 518 constructed it on its present-day site. Scupi was situated at the estuary of Lepenec into the river Vardar, 3-4 km to the west of the present-day town. The Slaves settled in the area at the end of the seventh century and the town had different rulers – feudal lords, within the Bulgarian and medieval Serbian state. The Turks conquered it in 1392 and it remained under the Turkish rule for 520 years, until 1912.
