Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization (United)

The Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization (United) (1925-1936) (Macedonian: Внатрешна македонска револуционерна организација (обединета), "Vnatrešna makedonska revolucionerna organizacija (obedineta)"; Bulgarian: Вътрешна македонска революционна организация - обединена, "Vatreshna makedonska revolyucionna organizatsiya - Obedinena"), commonly known in English as IMRO (United), was the name of a revolutionary political organization active across the entire geographical region of Macedonia.

Foundation

IMRO (United) was founded in 1925 in Vienna by the left wing of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization (IMRO). It was under the leadership of Dimitar Vlahov, Pavel Shatev, Georgi Zankov, Rizo Rizov, Vladimir PopTomov, Metodi Shatorov and Hristo Yankov. Its main object was to free the Macedonia nation within their geographical and economical borders to create a new political entity which would become an equal member of the future Balkan Federation. It was recognized by the Comintern and accepted as a partner in the Balkan Communist Federation. It maintained close links with the Bulgarian communist leader, Georgi Dimitrov.

Activities

The Resolution of the Comintern for the creation of Macedonian nation, although published as a resolution of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization (United), was undoubtedly the most significant international acknowledgement of the Macedonian national individuality, which had very favour - able consequences for its development and affirmation. The text of this historic document was prepared in the period December 20, 1933 – January 7, 1934, by the Balkan Secretariat of the Comintern. It was accepted by the Political Secretariat in , and in fact attempted to play the part of a Communist led Macedonian national or popular front.
