Macedonia is not a city. It is a historical province on the northern Greek peninsula, that was the location of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedonia whose most famous members were Philip II and Alexander the great.
There is also a newly founded Slavic country to the north of Greece that recently renamed itself "Macedonia" with an obvious expansionist agenda but because it violated international conventions and provoked the historical region in Greece it signed an accord to be referred to as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia until it finds a more suitable name for itself.
