The first edition of Nova Makedonija came out during World War II in Yugoslav Macedonia on 29 October 1944, in Gorno Vranovci, and was written in unstandardized Macedonian language. The newspaper was published by the Agitation and Propaganda Commission at the Central Committee of the Macedonian Communist Party. Vasil Ivanovski was the first editor-in-chief of the newspaper.[1]
The unsuccessful privatisation of Nova Makedonija in 1994-1996 led to the disappearance of all its print outlets from the market, and the later entry of WAZ as the main foreign investor, with a resulting strong concentration in the print media sector (90% in 2003). WAZ withdrew in 2012, selling its publications to local investors.[2]: 17
