It is stupid for some country to be FORMER REPUBLIC ... Name of the country IS 
 Republic Of Macedonia, right, and it is just Greek Influence in EU and UN that 
 lead to the FYROM. Think about it ... why then don`t Croats live in FORMER 
 YUGOSLAV REPUBLIC OF CROATIA etc. etc. Also, it is untrue that this name 
 was founded by Tito, it was also used by Serbs for quite a long time, 
 and for sure, after the Balkan wars (1912-4) when it became part 
 of kingodom of Serbia, but under name of Macedonia.
