The country
|
Home/Bulgaria/The Country/ Bulgaria is the homeland of ancient civilizations, and remnants of their cultures, and ruins of their cities, palaces and monasteries are found throughout the country. After centuries of Turkish control, military conflicts and fighting on the losing side in both World Wars, decades of Communist Party rule, and assorted political squabblings, Bulgaria is finally adjusting to its switch to democracy in the early 1990s. See history section for more information. Tourism is a real growth industry here, and Europeans frequent the interesting city of Sofia, the numerous historic sites, as well as the resorts and spas throughout the various spectacular mountain ranges and on the Black Sea coast. |
