Finish the Macedonia stories and enrich image captions
Complete the three remaining Macedonia stories with sourced photos, so both country sections are now fully illustrated. Articles (EN/SI/MK each), placeholders replaced with real images: - A Table Full of Macedonia (shared table, tavče gravče, ajvar, pastrmajlija). - Music, Dance and the Moments That Bring Us Together (oro celebration, tapan and zurla, kopachkata, an MSOS event). - History You Can Still Walk Through (Stobi, Heraclea Lyncestis, Kokino, Makedonium). Each image is center-cropped to a uniform 3:2, downscaled, and given an attribution caption with place, photographer where known, and source link. Captions: - Replace bare one-word labels with a short descriptive phrase in all three languages, so a caption reads "Kokino, a prehistoric megalithic observatory" rather than just "Kokino". Applies across the food, culture, and heritage stories. - Support an author-only credit with no external link, used for the photo from the MSOS archive.
