History of Bulgaria


The history of Bulgaria goes back more than 3,000 years.

A succession of various civilizations, Thracian, Roman, and Byzantine, the Bulgarian state has existed for 13 centuries now on the Balkan Peninsula, which has long been a meeting place and a melting-pot of tribes and nations. The Bulgarian state was founded in 681 AD, when Slavs and Proto-Bulgarians were brought together under the scepter of the khan.

The conversion of the Bulgarians to Christianity in 865 AD joined Bulgaria to the Christian civilization. The invention of the Cyrillic script in the latter half of the ninth century, during an age when previously only Latin and Greek had been used to write, gave a powerful impetus to the country's cultural development.

The War of Liberation (the Russian-Turkish War) regained Bulgaria's freedom in 1878. In 1879 the Constituent Assembly adopted the first constitution of Bulgaria, which was one of the most democratic constitutions of the day. The first decades of the 20th century were years of economic effort and prosperity. Bulgarian goods and Bulgarian currency, the 'Golden Lev', acquired a high value on the European markets. Trade relations with Austria, Germany, France and Great Britain strengthened.
