Founded in 1919, FK Ljuboten is the oldest club in Macedonia.[1] FK Ljuboten was based in northern Tetovo, built and supported by the locals. The name was derived from the mountain peak of the Šar Mountains, Ljuboten. Through most of the football period under both the Kingdom and Socialist Yugoslavia, the club relied on local talent and were funded by the locals and the city of Tetovo. For the 100th birthday of the club, they joined the Club of Pioneers.

gollark: What if I told you that Rust could execute JS via [DATA EXPUNGED]?
gollark: Ah, I forgot about that.
gollark: I assume you mean Rust. Why?
gollark: Ah, but I can't use them for *web crawling*.
gollark: I'm probably going to use python, JS (the existing thing is in JS) or Nim for this.
