Summary/Abstract: The events in Macedonia, associated with the end of the Russo-Ottoman War (1877 – 1878), have created a complex situation. This paper focuses on migrations as consequences after 1878, when the politically motivated migrations dominated and especially the waves of refugees. The unsuccessful liberation actions in the Pijanec region (1878), the Kresna Uprising (1878/79) and the so-called Ohrid Plot (1880/81), the Berlin Congress and Macedonia remaining within the Ottoman Empire, the increased violence, the instability of the Ottoman state as a whole, immigration of Muslim refugees into Macedonia – resulted in a large wave of emigration of the Macedonian population. It is interesting to see how these processes were reflected in various forms of stored memories and memorized history.
