Abstract
Macedonia has always been in the history geostrategic sphere of the influences and the interests of the great European powers. During the second half of the XIX century, particularly in the period after the Prussian - Austrian war of 1866, the European powers began very quickly to develop in the area of strategies
for modern warfare, modernization of military equipment and they were rapidly developing the economic power and influence.
Before and during the First World War, Macedonia was constantly an important geostrategic sphere for realizing the territorial and economic interests of the great powers, especially emphasizing the Via Ignatius or the road E -75 now, which was an important link to further interests of the great powers.
Therefore, Europeans powers made the bilateral and trilateral alliances which depended on more mutual variables: dependence on a member military power and dominance, power of commitment of one to another country and etc.
The Central Powers and the Entente were formed from these alliances, and they were the main actors in the First World War. The final results of this scientific paper represent further indirect impact of the great European forces and our close neighboring environment in terms of disrupting the overall progress and Euro-Atlantic integration of our country and the possibility for the future negative security implications.
