[M]North Macedonia[/M] has one of the weakest economies in Europe and [M]is in a process of transformation[/M], both economically and [M]politically[/M]. | North Macedonia (in Macedonian: Северна Македонија (Severna Makedonija); in Albanian: Maqedonia e Veriut), in long form the Republic of North Macedonia (in Macedonian: Република Севернika Северна северна Маерна Северна Маерна Severnika Макекек Maqedonisë së Veriut), is a southern European country located in the Balkan Peninsula.
Known from 1991 to 2019 as the “Republic of Macedonia” or “the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia” (or by the acronym FYROM), or sometimes simply “Macedonia” in common parlance, it is one of the successor states of Yugoslavia, from which it declared its independence in 1991. Due to the very similar name between North Macedonia and the Greek region of Macedonia, tensions erupted, until an end to the crisis on February 12, 2019, when the agreement between the new Republic of North Macedonia and the Hellenic Republic (validated by referendum then ratification by the two parliaments) comes into force, and gives its new name to this state. This name change will thus allow it to claim membership in international institutions, such as NATO or the European Union.
Without access to the sea, North Macedonia shares borders with Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia, Kosovo and Albania. The country, which has a population of two million, occupies approximately the northern half of geographic Macedonia, which also extends into Bulgaria and Greece. Its capital and largest city is Skopje, followed by Koumanovo, Bitola, Prilep and Tetovo. The country is mainly mountainous and has about fifty lakes.
Due to its position in Europe, the territory of the republic has known many occupations and migrations, the most notable being the Byzantine age, the arrival of the Slavs in the 6th century, then an Ottoman domination lasting five centuries. These presences have shaped a culture rich in influences, since in addition to citizens belonging to the Macedonian people, the country has significant Albanian, Turkish and Roma minorities. | n |

All the US starters were 25 and under and the [M]average of 23 years, 117 days was under 24 for the fifth straight match.[/M] | The U.S. men's national team is a work in progress–one that was no match for an experienced Brazil side.
The Americans officially kicked off a new cycle that started in practice months ago with a 2-0 loss to Brazil at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Friday night. Roberto Firmino's 11th-minute strike and Neymar's penalty kick at the end of the first half were all the Seleção needed, and Douglas Costa was a constant thorn in his 60 minutes on the field, as the world's third-ranked team controlled the proceedings against a young U.S. side in the midst of turning the page.
With the end of the 2018 World Cup, the road to 2022 starts with the September international fixture window, but the U.S. got an undesirable early advance on that when it failed to qualify for Russia. As such, a young core continues to make up the nucleus of the team under interim coach Dave Sarachan, whose time with the team is likely ticking, with new general manager Earnie Stewart set to make a coaching hire by year's end.
That team allowed Brazil to possess from the opening whistle and play through some high early pressure, which resulted in Neymar creating trouble from the start. He went at Matt Miazga in the U.S. box only to have a trailing Wil Trapp get a foot on the ball as Neymar was cutting back to prevent a chance on goal in the second minute.
It didn't take much longer for Brazil to get on the board. Costa burned left back Antonee Robinson with his pace and then served a delightful cross to the far post, where Firmino one-timed home the go-ahead goal.
Costa was at it again in the 31st minute, beating Robinson 1-v-1 before delivering a dangerous cross intended for Neymar. | n |

[M]Firmino scored in the 11th minute[/M] after a cross from Douglas Costa, who burst down the flank and past 21-year-old left back Antonee Robinson. | The U.S. men's national team is a work in progress–one that was no match for an experienced Brazil side.
The Americans officially kicked off a new cycle that started in practice months ago with a 2-0 loss to Brazil at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Friday night. Roberto Firmino's 11th-minute strike and Neymar's penalty kick at the end of the first half were all the Seleção needed, and Douglas Costa was a constant thorn in his 60 minutes on the field, as the world's third-ranked team controlled the proceedings against a young U.S. side in the midst of turning the page.
With the end of the 2018 World Cup, the road to 2022 starts with the September international fixture window, but the U.S. got an undesirable early advance on that when it failed to qualify for Russia. As such, a young core continues to make up the nucleus of the team under interim coach Dave Sarachan, whose time with the team is likely ticking, with new general manager Earnie Stewart set to make a coaching hire by year's end.
That team allowed Brazil to possess from the opening whistle and play through some high early pressure, which resulted in Neymar creating trouble from the start. He went at Matt Miazga in the U.S. box only to have a trailing Wil Trapp get a foot on the ball as Neymar was cutting back to prevent a chance on goal in the second minute.
It didn't take much longer for Brazil to get on the board. Costa burned left back Antonee Robinson with his pace and then served a delightful cross to the far post, where Firmino one-timed home the go-ahead goal.
Costa was at it again in the 31st minute, beating Robinson 1-v-1 before delivering a dangerous cross intended for Neymar. | e |

Brazil, in their first match since a quarter-final loss to Belgium at the World Cup, improved to 18-1 against the US and have won 11 straight since a 1-0 loss in the 1998 Concacaf Gold Cup.

Burr's legacy is defined by his famous personal conflict with Alexander Hamilton that culminated in [M]Burr killing Hamilton[/M] in the famous Burr–Hamilton duel in 1804. | Aaron Burr, Jr. (English: February 6, 1756-September 14, 1836), American politician, hero of the American Revolution, member of the Democratic Republic of the United States, former U.S. Senator ( 1791-1797), Vice President of the United States (1801-1805).
In the 1800 presidential election, he and Thomas Jefferson received the same electoral votes. The U.S. House of Representatives finally elected Jefferson as President and Burr as Vice President after 36 rounds of voting.
In 1804, in his last year as Vice President, there was a Burr-Hamilton duel. In the end all charges against him were dropped, but Hamilton's death also ended Burr's political career.
After Burr stepped down as vice president in 1805, he traveled to the western territories newly acquired by the United States through the Louisiana Purchase. Some of his behavior during this period was suspected, and he was charged with treason. The accused crimes included: (1) trying to claim newly acquired land in the United States; (2) trying to illegally declare war on Spain. But in 1808 he was acquitted by the court. | e |
