On March 4, Bulgaria marks the 140th anniversary of the birth of voivode Todor Aleksandrov. The revolutionary, who was born in the town of Stip, is regarded as the second most influential figure in the Macedonian Struggle after Gotse Delchev.
At the age of 16, Aleksandrov joined the Internal Macedonian-Adrianople Revolutionary Organization (IMARO) in Skopje. After the Ilinden-Preobrazhenie Uprising he was sent to a prison in the Ottoman empire. In 1911, he became a member of the Central Committee of the IMARO. After 1918, he was a prominent figure of the Macedonian emigrants in Bulgaria. He was assassinated in 1925 in the Pirin Mountains, after the signature of the May Manifesto in Vienna.
