Sojuz na Izvidnici na Makedonija is the Scout Association of Macedonia. Scouting in Macedonia began about 1921 under the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. As part of Yugoslavia, Macedonia was a founding member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement from 1922 to 1948. Until 1941, Macedonian youth was organized in Scouts and Falcons (Sokół, a Slavic youth movement founded in Prague in 1862). Scouting in Yugoslavia was coopted by the Tito government in 1950, at which time WOSM membership was forfeited. In November, 1953 Sojuz na Izvidnici na Makedonija was officially founded, as a branch of the Yugoslav Scout Association, which it remained until the Yugoslav breakup. Sojuz na Izvidnici na Makedonija was officially declared an independent, nonpolitical and nongovernmental organization of young people in 1993 Macedonia returned to World Organization membership on July 25, 1997. As of January, 1998, Sojuz na Izvidnici na Makedonija has more than 3,500 registered Scouts, male and female, assigned in 21 units all over the country. The primary geographic structure of Sojuz na Izvidnici na Makedonija is the District, generally conforming to municipality boundaries.
