A crowd of Macedonian-Americans celebrated the Republic of Macedonia Independence Day with a flag raising ceremony at Cleveland City Hall on September 8, 2009.

The ceremony celebrated September 8, 1991 when over 95.5% of the citizens voted for independence of the Republic of Macedonia.

Thanks to our Macedonian Ambassador Andrea Andrioff Alusheff for providing these photos.
