The book examines the impact of the Balkan Wars on Vardar Macedonia, particularly the shift from Ottoman to Serbian rule. It highlights the Serbianisation policies implemented by authorities, which suppressed religious rights and targeted non-Serbian populations, especially Muslims. The author explores the interplay between nationalism, ethnicity, and religion, arguing that belonging to the Serbian nation was intrinsically linked to the Serbian Orthodox Church. Using diplomatic primary sources, the research investigates how the concept of a shared religion influenced foreign diplomats' perceptions of Serbianisation policies.
