Macedonian Greek Catholic Church

An apostolic exarch was appointed for Bulgarian Catholic Apostolic Vicariate of Macedonia as early as 1883 and lasting until 1922/1924 as part of the Bulgarian Greek Catholic Church. After the end of World War I and the foundation of Yugoslavia, the Vicariate was absorbed into the Eparchy of Križevci. In January 2001, a separate Greek Catholic Apostolic Exarchate of Macedonia was formed for Eastern Catholics of the Byzantine Rite in North Macedonia. It was separated from the Eparchy of Križevci and constituted as directly subject to the Holy See. On the same day (11 January 2001), the Holy See appointed the Latin bishop of Skopje as the first Apostolic Exarch of North Macedonia. ==Statistics==
