I am needing to compare the adolescents of the US to adolescents from Macedonia. Does anyone know where I can find out about the history, the culture, social work, and social issues that affect the youth of that country? Any help would be appriciated.

yes i have looked it up. the only information I could find was that Macedonia is sometimes known as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. Nothing about the youth of the country though.

I recommend you use webpages from the United Nations (UNDP) or from the European Union.
UNDP is full of numbers, check: http://hdr.undp.org/statistics/data/countries.cfm?c=MKD
Next thing closes to youth is: www.unicef.org/macedonia
Click on "Who is in the country?"
In both these pages of the UN you will find the same statistics for the US and Macedonia by that I mean that they have been measured with the same statistical methods. In this way you can make a complete and valid comparison of both countries.
Have fun in your investigation!

The Republic of Macedonia (Macedonian: Република Македонија Republika Makedonija, Albanian: Republika e Maqedonisë), often referred to as Macedonia, is an independent state on the Balkan peninsula in southeastern Europe. This landlocked country borders Serbia to the north, Albania to the west, Greece to the south, and Bulgaria to the east. As the result of a naming dispute with Greece, in 1993 it was admitted to the United Nations under the provisional name the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), pending resolution of the dispute.[1]
The capital is Skopje, with more than 600,000 inhabitants. It has a number of smaller cities, notably Bitola, Prilep, Tetovo, Kumanovo, Ohrid, Veles, Štip, and Strumica. It has more than 50 natural and artificial lakes and sixteen mountains higher than 2,000 meters (6,550 ft) above sea level.
The country is a member of the UN and the Council of Europe and an associate member of La Francophonie, the World Trade Organization (WTO), the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe. Since December 2005 it is also a candidate for joining the European Union and has applied for NATO membership.
