The freedom-loving spirit of the Bulgarian people

The Bulgarian population started to organize self-defense movements. First appeared the hajduti (outlaw rebels) who protected the Orthodox Christian population. They united in cheti (detachments), which later on grew into organized movement for the liberation of Bulgaria. The New Bulgarian National Revival began in the middle of the 18 th century. The struggle for independent church and freedom of religious belonging, the publishing of books, and later the Bulgarian press release, the establishment of Bulgarian secular school and the Bulgarian language and culture were some of the steps taken towards the revival of the nation. The writing of the History of the Bulgarian People by Father Paisii of Hilendar marks an important moment in our history. In 1862 Georgi Sava Rakovski organized the First Bulgarian Armed Legion in Belgrad. A key figure among the revolutionaries was Vasil Levski. The Bulgarian people worship him and consider him to be a saint. The April Uprising from 1876 was a turning point in the movement for the national liberation.

The Bulgarian freedom

The Russian Emperor Alexander II declared war on Turkey in 1877. After cruel battles, Turkey was forced to sign the San Stefano peace treaty and Bulgaria gained back its independence on March 3, 1878. In July of 1878 the Berlin Congress revised the San Srefano peace treaty and the European Powers divide the Bulgarian country into two parts. Macedonia and the region of Odrin remained a Turkish possession, Northern Dobrudja was given to Romania and the Moravian region to Serbia.
