Bulgaria (Bulgarian: България, IPA: //), officially the Republic of Bulgaria (Bulgarian: Република България, IPA: //), is a country in southeastern Europe. It borders the Black Sea to the east, Greece and Turkey to the south, Serbia and the Republic of Macedonia to the west, and Romania to the north mostly along the river Danube.
History
In the late 7th century a branch of the
Bulgars led by
Khan Asparuh migrated into the northern
Balkans, where they merged with the local
Slavic population and possibly remnants of the
Thracian population to form the first Bulgarian state in
AD 681. This was the first Slavic nation-state in history. The Bulgarian empire was a significant European power in the 9th and the 10th century, while fighting with the
Byzantine Empire for the control of the Balkans. The Bulgarian state was crushed by an assault by the
Rus' in 969 and completely subdued by a determined Byzantine assault under
Basil II in 1018.
