Todor Aleksandrov

Todor Aleksandrov Poporushov, best known as Todor Alexandrov (Bulgarian/Macedonian: Тодор Александров), also spelt as Alexandroff (4 March 1881 – 31 August 1924), was a Bulgarian revolutionary, army officer, politician and teacher. He favored initially the annexation of Macedonia to Bulgaria, but later switched to the idea of an Independent Macedonia as a second Bulgarian state on the Balkans. Alexandrov was a member of the Internal Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Organisation (IMARO) and later of the Central Committee of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organisation (IMRO).

In North Macedonia, Aleksandrov, who was previously dismissed by the post-WWII Yugoslav Macedonian historiography as a controversial Bulgarophile and national traitor, was added to the country's historical heritage as an ethnic Macedonian. Though, this has caused political and public controversies. Provided by Wikipedia
