- A bit more brief than previous "50 Fact" videos. Since I was in Bulgaria within the past year, it made sense to do an overview of the country.
Research:
-Actually visiting the country

most accurate description ever!
Just a quick note about Plovdiv:
"Plovdiv is one of the oldest cities in Europe.
Archaeologists have discovered pottery and other objects of everyday life from as early as the Neolithic Age, showing that in the end of the 7th millennium B.C there already was an established settlement there. According to Ammianus Marcellinus, Plovdiv's post-Bronze Age history places it as a Thracian fortified settlement named Eumolpias. In 342 BC, Plovdiv was conquered by Philip II of Macedon, the father of Alexander the Great, who renamed it "Φιλιππόπολις", Philippopolis or "the city of Philip" in his own honour. Later, it was reconquered by the Thracians who called it Pulpudeva (from Philipopolis)."
Appreciate the insight!
I am so impressed with this travel video! I have watched so many travel videos from when we were living in Italy, so I have seen a lot of different styles. You are very engaging and informative! I like how you insert the photos. Great job!
Поздрави от България!
Абе какво всички се връзвате на тия тупани чужденците?
Работя с чужденци и трябва да ти кажа че по-големи интриганти и подлеци не съм срещал.
Hi there, great video I'm Bulgarian and this is the first time I've seen this musical instrument. I'd say the gaida (a pipe made of sheep or goat skin) is a lot more popular and very traditional Bulgarian musical instrument
Wow, that's a great effort to learn about the history of the country!
Let me tell you, the less they know, the better. That they come here and bring their crime and drugs with them.
@@stanimirgeorgiev.87Не знам за какво говориш... Наркотици се произвеждат и транспортират тук от времената на соца, а престъпността ни е била най-висока в годините на прекрасния ни, локално отгледан мутренски елит през 90-те. Кофти е да не виждаш обективните качества на автора на видеото, който би бил добре дошъл в коя да е цивилизована страна в света с високия си интелект, култура и интерес към хората.
Again Cyril and Methodius DID NOT invent the Cyrillic alphabet they invented the Glagolitic alphabet, their disciples envented the Cyrillic later and named it in honor of their teacher
Appreciate the correction!
They invented both of them
Actually, it is a legend that the decuples of Cyril and Methodius named the Bulgarian Alphabet to the name of Cyril. The more realistic theory is that East Rome renamed the alphabet to this evil name after 1018, when they conquered Bulgaria with the help of the traitorous-sold-off-for-roman-gold Kiev Rus. Note that Cyril and Methodius were paid servants of the East Rome Emperor, workers of hire for the EVIL EMPIRE AT THE TIME. With this deceitful and evil act they deny Bulgaria a major achievement.
Good stuff, buddy !
Great,Man!🎉
I have yet to see a single person nod "no" and shake "yes".
Spent about 365 days here, never confused.
I didn’t see it very often either. Maybe that’s an outdated fact?
Love this my guy! Are you traveling again this year?💛
Oh yes! Less than two months until Cuba 🇨🇺
good video some mistakes you had on the explanations , like some people commented already like the cyrilic creation , yogurt bacteria is called Lactobacillus bulgaricus all around the world so there not realy a question where yogurt is from . bulgaria was never under byzantium ore roman ocupation we just losed a war in 800 years of wars and bulgaria was still idependant , you can add the creation of the first pc airbag space food automatic transmition also adding bulgaria had multiple country around the globe whit the same name and no we never mixed whit slavs since slavs never existed as before that all that people were calld bulg Arians which is how persians called those people white wariors basicaly and the first bulgarian where from actual bulgaria but they moved after roman empire conquested theire land all around asia and there plenty of cities and rivers still holding bulgarian names basicaly bulgarians just come back to theyre mother land to fre it from roman tirany when kubrat died asparuh father another historical figure thats bulgarian is atila as all writing from his times describe him as and there he comes whit his bulgarians also he is on the nomalia of bulgarian khans(kniaz the bulgarian name for king at the time)
"Ok, I'm gonna try to pronounce this right.....Stursite!!!!" Dude, that is hilarious. Say it with me, "Shtur-tsi-te".
😂😂😂
That's not the only one tho... Every single one of his pronunciations are efed up
I think we understand the point being that, I didn’t do a great job looking up proper pronunciations in the Bulgarian language. This is something I’m trying to take more time for as I spend more time with on future videos. I appreciate the engagement!
There were lions in bulgarian lands and arround the 4th century bc philip alexander the great father hunted lions arround the peninsula

Intersting fact - there wasn't any fascism in Bulgaria ever. So it is strange how the anti-fascists are "fallen" in Burgas. Too much booze maybe? What do you think?
I imagine is has something to do with other anti-fascists that fought the Nazis. It doesn’t necessarily have to take place on the soil to honor it.
My point is, all tis "monuments" are built under the russian communists pressure with purely propaganda intentions. The implication is - we, (russian) cominists liberated Bulgaria from the fasists. And this propaganda is real. Half of the population don't know its own history, but know very good the history manufactured in Moscow. Actually, such type of propaganda is developed by the fascists itself.
Yeah. I mean, I heard that perspective when I was there; I’m certainly not denying any of what you’re saying 🤷♂️
Fast speaking does not make you more pervasive , new data/information requires time to digest
You’re recommending that I speak slower in future videos?
yes
Got it. I appreciate your feedback!
Make videos about your countries.
There are even more videos about the U.S. so I guess I’ll just keep making videos about whatever I want 🤷♂️ stay tuned, Palau is coming soon!
@@nick_geo
No, you don't.
You will make only for what I tell you to do🤣
Alexander Nevski is not the biggest Eastern Ortodox Church in the world!

Heеееееy, there are enough videos about Bulgaria already so you can stop making videos about Bulgaria!
Yeeeee!
say this on Putin
I’m not sure I understand.
@@nick_geo He was referring to the fact that the Russians usually promote it as "Russian alphabet" and we are really divided because of Russian "liberation" during the Russo-Turk wars, but again Soviets occupied it. Bulgarian and Russian are close when it comes to written form but the grammar is different because we are the only Slavic language that dropped cases. I think Russians understand us much. Regarding the islands, there are really cool ones in the Danube where you can kayak. Overall, a very good video. You are most welcome to visit. You forgot to mention our old medival capital of Veliko Tarnovo during the 2nd BG empire. It is not so big anymore, but very nice.
I appreciate your comment! I would certainly love to come back to Bulgaria sometime 😊
What???
"Yoghurt" itself is a Turkish word and means "condensed". If you ask Bulgarians they'll claim Adam and Eve were Bulgarian
no one in BG calls it Yogurt... What do you think, does also the bacteria Lactobacillus bulgaricus is Turkish? :) hahahahah This bacteria that plays a crucial role in the production of the Bulgarian milk was identified in 1905 by the Bulgarian doctor Stamen Grigorov. Calm down, we have no claims about Adam and Eve, keep them to yourself, we don't need them!
We dont use the word yogurt in Bulgaria, we call it sour milk, so yes the word yogurt comes from other language and its used in western countires
