ЕДИННИ, ГОРДИ И СВОБОДНИ...B U L G A R I A!!!
(more info in en:) Велика държава, с хилядолетна история,съхранила през вековете своята култура, религия, език и обичаи! НЕЗАВИСИМИ И СВОБОДНИ ДО КРАЙ! A patriotic TV clip dedicated to the Bulgarian Independence Day/22 September/! Bulgaria preserves the traditions of the First Bulgarian Empire (632/681 1018), which at times covered most of the Balkans and spread its alphabet, literature and culture among the Slavic and other peoples of Eastern Europe. Centuries later, with the decline of the Second Bulgarian Empire (1185 1396/1422), the country came under Ottoman slavery for nearly five centuries. The Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878 led to the re-establishment of a Bulgarian state as a constitutional monarchy in 1878, with the Treaty of San Stefano marking the birth of the Third Bulgarian State.Following the Russo-Turkish War, 1877-1878 (when Russian soldiers together with the volunteer Bulgarian troops defeated the Ottoman armies), the Treaty of San Stefano (3 March 1878), set up an autonomous Bulgarian country. The Western Great Powers immediately rejected the treaty: they became aware that a large bulgarian country in the Balkans might serve Russian interests. This led to the Treaty of Berlin (1878) which provided for an autonomous Bulgarian principality comprising Moesia and the region of Sofia. Alexander, Prince of Battenberg, took up the position of Bulgaria's first Prince. Most of Thrace became part of the autonomous region of Eastern Rumelia, whereas the rest of Thrace and all of Macedonia returned to the sovereignty of the Ottomans. After the Serbo-Bulgarian War and unification with Eastern Rumelia in 1885, the Bulgarian country proclaimed itself a fully independent kingdom on 5 October (22 September O.S.), 1908, during the reign of Ferdinand I of Bulgaria. |

Turkey (Turkish: Türkiye), known officially as the Republic of Turkey (Türkiye Cumhuriyeti (help·info)), is a Eurasian country that stretches across the Anatolian peninsula in western Asia and Thrace (Rumelia) in the Balkan region of southeastern Europe. Turkey is bordered by eight countries: Bulgaria to the northwest; Greece to the west; Georgia to the northeast; Armenia, Azerbaijan (the exclave of Nakhichevan) and Iran to the east; and Iraq and Syria to the southeast. The Mediterranean Sea and Cyprus are to the south; the Aegean Sea and Archipelago are to the west; and the Black Sea is to the north. Separating Anatolia and Thrace are the Sea of Marmara and the Turkish Straits (the Bosporus and the Dardanelles), which are commonly reckoned to delineate the border between Asia and Europe, thereby making Turkey transcontinental.[5] Due to its strategic location astride two continents, Turkey's culture has a unique blend of Eastern and Western tradition. A powerful regional presence in the Eurasian landmass with strong historic, cultural and economic influence in the area between Europe in the west and Central Asia in the east, Russia in the north and the Middle East in the south, Turkey has come to acquire increasing strategic significance. Turkey is a democratic, secular, unitary, constitutional republic whose political system was established in 1923 under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, following the fall of the Ottoman Empire in the aftermath of World War I. Since then, Turkey has become increasingly integrated with the West through membership in organizations such as the Council of Europe (1949), NATO (1952), OECD (1961), OSCE (1973) and the G20 industrial nations (1999). Turkey began full membership negotiations with the European Union in 2005, having been an associate member of the EEC since 1963, and having reached a customs union agreement in 1995. Meanwhile, Turkey has continued to foster close political, economic and industrial relations with the Eastern world, particularly with the states of Southwest, Central and East Asia. Turkey is classified as a developed country by the CIA and as a regional power by political scientists and economists worldwide.

A Bulgarian from Resen, Macedonia 1 Eng Subs
This is a documentary for the great Bulgarian politician Andrey Liapchev, born in Resen, nowdays FYRO Macedonia! Andrey Lyapchev (Bulgarian: Андрей Ляпчев) (30 November 1866 - 6 November 1933) was a Bulgarian political figure and Prime Minister. Lyapchev was born in the Macedonian city of Resen, which was at the time a part of the Ottoman Empire, and played a leading role in Macedonian politics. As a student he campaigned for the unification of Bulgaria and Eastern Rumelia, before going on to edit Priaporets, the Democratic Party journal. He also became known for his work in the cooperative movement. He attended the Bulgarian Men's High School of Thessaloniki. He entered the Bulgarian parliament in 1908 and before long rose to ministerial rank. In this role he signed the 1908 treaty that established Bulgarian independence as well as the 1918 Armistice. After the First World War he became the first civilian to hold the post of Minister of War. He fell out of favour under Aleksandar Stamboliyski and was imprisoned between 1922 the military coup of 1923. Lyapchev became Prime Minister on 4 January 1926 at the head of a coalition between the Democratic Alliance and the National Liberal Party. Lyapchev generally pursued a more moderate line than his predecessor Aleksandar Tsankov, declaring an amnesty for Communist prisoners (although the Communist Party officially remained banned). He also secured two loans from the League of Nations to help bolster the economy. He was, however, criticized for his toleration of the activities of the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization which strained relations with Yugoslavia and Greece. Despite his more moderate stance Bulgaria struggled to cope with the Great Depression and so he lost the 1931 election. He died in Sofia two years later. |

Stefan cel Mare si Sfant (Stephen the Great and the Holy)
(English subtitles). The Battle of Vaslui (also referred to as the Battle of Podul Înalt or the Battle of Racova) was fought on January 10, 1475, between Stephen III of Moldova and the Ottoman Beylerbeyi of Rumelia, Hadân Suleiman Pasha. The battle took place at Podul Înalt (the High Bridge), near the town of Vaslui, in Moldova (now part of eastern Romania). The Ottoman troops numbered up to 120,000, facing about 40,000 Moldavian troops, plus smaller numbers of allied and mercenary troops. Stephen inflicted on the Ottomans a decisive defeat that has been described as "the greatest ever secured by the Cross against Islam," with casualties, according to Venetian and Polish records, reaching beyond 40,000 on the Ottoman side. Mara Brankovic (Mara Hatun), who had formerly been the younger wife of Murad II, told a Venetian envoy that the invasion had been worst ever defeat for the Ottomans. Stephen was later awarded the title "Athleta Christi" (Champion of Christ) by Pope Sixtus IV, who referred to him as "Verus christiane fidei aletha" (The true defender of the Christian faith). According to the Polish chronicler Jan Długosz, Stephen did not celebrate his victory; instead, he fasted for forty days on bread and water and forbade anyone to attribute the victory to him, insisting that credit be given only to "The Lord". |

Turkey is classified as a newly industrialized country by economists and political scientists worldwide and is a democratic, secular, unitary, constitutional republic whose political system was established in 1923 under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, following the fall of the Ottoman Empire in the aftermath of World War I. Since then, Turkey has become increasingly integrated with the West while continuing to foster relations with the Eastern world. The name of Turkey, Türkiye in the Turkish language, can be divided into two words: Türk, which means "strong" in Old Turkic and usually signifying the inhabitants of Turkey or a member of the Turkish or Turkic peoples, a later form of "tu-kin", name given by the Chinese to the people living south of the Altay Mountains of Central Asia as early as 177 BCE; and the abstract suffix -iye (derived from Arabic), which means "owner" or "related to". The first recorded use of the term "Türk" or "Türük" as an autonym is contained in the Orkhon inscriptions of the Göktürks (Sky Turks) of Central Asia (c. 8th century CE). The English word "Turkey" is derived from the Medieval Latin "Turchia" (c. 1369). |

Turkey is bordered by eight countries: Bulgaria to the northwest; Greece to the west; Georgia to the northeast; Armenia, Azerbaijan (the exclave of Nakhichevan) and Iran to the east; and Iraq and Syria to the southeast. The Mediterranean Sea and Cyprus are to the south; the Aegean Sea and Archipelago are to the west; and the Black Sea is to the north. Separating Anatolia and Thrace are the Sea of Marmara and the Turkish Straits (the Bosporus and the Dardanelles), which are commonly reckoned to delineate the border between Asia and Europe, thereby making Turkey transcontinental.[5] Due to its strategic location astride two continents, Turkey's culture has a unique blend of Eastern and Western tradition. A powerful regional presence in the Eurasian landmass with strong historic, cultural and economic influence in the area between Europe in the west and Central Asia in the east, Russia in the north and the Middle East in the south, Turkey has come to acquire increasing strategic significance. Turkey is a democratic, secular, unitary, constitutional republic whose political system was established in 1923 under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, following the fall of the Ottoman Empire in the aftermath of World War I. Since then, Turkey has become increasingly integrated with the West through membership in organizations such as the Council of Europe (1949), NATO (1952), OECD (1961), OSCE (1973) and the G20 industrial nations (1999). Turkey began full membership negotiations with the European Union in 2005, having been an associate member of the EEC since 1963, and having reached a customs union agreement in 1995. Meanwhile, Turkey has continued to foster close political, economic and industrial relations with the Eastern world, particularly with the states of Southwest, Central and East Asia. Turkey is classified as a developed country by the CIA and as a regional power by political scientists and economists worldwide.

Miniatürk - Turkey - Cradle of Civilisations - Anatolia
Miniatürk contains 105 models done in 1/25th scale. 45 of the structures are from Istanbul, 45 are from Anatolia, and 15 are from the Ottoman territories that today lie outside of Turkey. Additional space was reserved for potential future models. The infrastructure was built taking into consideration the needs of potential additions. Therefore, Miniaturk will continue growing, modeling, in a sense, planned urbanization. Anatolia (Turkish: Anadolu from Greek: Ανατολία - Anatolía) is a peninsula of Western Asia which forms the greater part (96 %) of the Asian portion of Turkey, as opposed to the European portion (4 %) (Thrace, or traditionally Rumelia). It is also often called by the Latin name of Asia Minor, which comes from the Greek Μικρά Ασία (Mikra Asia). The name comes from the Greek Aνατολή (Αnatolḗ) or Ανατολία (Anatolía), which means "east". The Byzantine theme of "Anatolikon" ("eastern one") signified the lands to the east of Europe and Constantinople. The Turkish form Anadolu derives from the Greek version; Turkish folk etymology breaks down the geographical term into two words, "mother" and "full" Thus, Ana, dolu 'Mother, it is full' or 'Full of mothers'. The region comprising modern Turkey has overseen the birth of major civilizations such as the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires. Because of its strategic location, where two continents meet, Turkey's culture has a unique blend of Eastern and Western tradition, often described as a bridge between the two civilizations. A powerful regional presence in the Eurasian landmass with strong cultural and economic influence in the area between the Adriatic Sea in the west and China in the east, Russia in the north and the Middle East in the south, Turkey has come to acquire increasing strategic significance. |

2/3 - LIDHJA SHQIPTARE E PRIZRENIT ( 1878 - 1881 )
Në të vërtetë, një javë pas fillimit të luftës, më 8 korrik 1876, Rusia dhe Austro-Hungaria bënë me anën e dy notave të veçuara një marrëveshje të fshehtë në Rajhshtat (Reichsttadt) të Bohemisë për ta rregulluar Gadishullin Ballkanik sipas interesave të tyre ekspansionistë. Vjena e Peterburgu vendosën të mos ndërhynin ushtarakisht në konfliktin e Serbisë e të Malit të Zi me Turqinë. Por të dyja palët ranë në ujdi që, po ta fitonte luftën Perandoria Osmane, nuk do të bëhej asnjë ndryshim në hartën politike të Gadishullit Ballkanik. Megjithatë, në këtë rast do ta detyronin Portën e Lartë të zbatonte në favor të popullsisë sllave disa reforma si ato që iu dhanë Kretës më 1886, ndërsa po ta fitonte luftën pala tjetër (Serbia e Mali i Zi), Bosnja do të kalonte nën zotërimin kryesisht të Austro-Hungarisë dhe pjesërisht të Serbisë, e cila do të merrte gjithashtu një pjesë të Kosovës, kurse Mali i Zi një pjesë të Hercegovinës. Bullgaria do të bëhej një shtet autonom dhe Rumelia një vilajet autonom. Në këtë rast Vjena vuri conditio sine qua non që të mos krijohej një shtet i madh sllav në Gadishullin Ballkanik. Kjo do të thoshte që as Serbia nuk duhej të shtrihej deri në Adriatik, as Bullgaria nuk duhej të përfshinte Maqedoninë, sepse, si njëra, si tjetra, do ta pengonin ekspansionin e Austro-Hungarisë drejt Egjeut. Në notën austro-hungareze parashihej krijimi i një shteti autonom shqiptar, kurse nota ruse nuk e përfillte fare fatin e Shqipërisë. Në Rajshtat çështja shqiptare hyri për të parën herë në qerthullin e diplomacisë evropiane si çështje politike. Megjithëse aty nuk u mor asnjë vendim, qysh në hapin e parë u shfaqën dy qëndrime të kundërta, që do ta karakterizojnë, tani e tutje, trajtimin e çështjes shqiptare nga kancelaritë e mëdha: njëri i Rusisë, që mohonte krejtësisht të drejtat kombëtare të shqiptarëve, tjetri i Austro-Hungarisë, që kërkonte, veçse pjesërisht, respektimin e tyre. Edhe ideja e Vjenës për krijimin e një formacioni politik shqiptar, ishte e kushtëzuar me futjen e këtij shteti nën protektoratin e saj. Si pasojë e këtyre tre faktorëve - e kalbëzimit të Perandorisë Osmane, e rritjes së lëvizjes çlirimtare dhe e ndërhyrjes së Fuqive të Mëdha - lindi përsëri në mesin e viteve 70, por me një mprehtësi më të madhe se në të kaluarën, e ashtuquajtura Krizë Lindore. Thelbin e saj e përbënte, si edhe më parë, jo vetëm çështja e çlirimit kombëtar të popujve të robëruar të Perandorisë Osmane, por edhe çështja e ndarjes së zotërimeve të Perandorisë Osmane, në të cilën përfshihej edhe copëtimi i trojeve shqiptare. Shqipëria në fillim të Krizës Lindore (1875-1876) Fillimi i Krizës Lindore i gjeti shqiptarët në marrëdhënie të acaruara me Perandorinë Osmane. Asnjë nga kërkesat e ngritura prej tyre gjatë dhjetëvjeçarëve të mëparshëm nuk ishte pranuar nga Porta e Lartë. Shqipëria nuk gëzonte asnjë të drejtë kombëtare. Në viset e saj, administrata e vilajeteve ndodhej gjithnjë në duart e nëpunësve turq. Në krahinat malore vazhdonte presioni i pushtetit qendror për t'ua hequr malësorëve venomet tradicionale dhe për t'i futur nën zgjedhën e administratës burokratike centraliste. Vendi nuk ishte lehtësuar as nga pesha e rëndë e taksave, as nga shërbimi i gjatë i nizamit. Me masat centraliste që Porta kishte ndërmarrë pasi shpalli dekretin e dytë të Tanzimatit (Hatt-i Humayun i vitit 1856), gjendja e Shqipërisë u keqësua më shumë. Kudo mbretëronte varfëria ekonomike, administrata shtetërore e shthurur, korrupsioni pa skrupull i qeveritarëve dhe krimet e pandëshkuara të hajdutëve. Banorët e Shqipërisë ndodheshin, sipas shprehjes së një dëshmitari të huaj, në "kulmin e varfërisë". Gjykatat burokratike perandorake, të urryera nga shqiptarët, vinin duke u forcuar vazhdimisht. Po aq e rëndë ishte edhe gjendja politike dhe ajo e arsimit në Shqipëri. Porta e Lartë vazhdonte t'i diskriminonte shqiptarët, të mos i njihte si komb më vete dhe shqiptarët e tri besimeve si elementë të të njëjtit komb. Ngritja e shkollave shqipe vijonte të ishte e ndaluar, në një kohë kur rrjeti i shkollave të huaja po zgjerohej nga viti në vit. Trojet shqiptare qëndronin të copëtuara ndërmjet vilajeteve të ndryshme. Me këtë copëtim, Porta e Lartë vijonte t'ua mohonte atyre karakterin etnik shqiptar. Vazhdon ne Videon/3 |

World greatest ever victory against islam - Battle of Vaslui
Scene from the movie Stefan cel Mare, 1974. The chant is played by the monks of Putna monastery, where Stefan is buried. The Battle of Vaslui (also referred to as the Battle of Podul Înalt or the Battle of Racova) was fought on January 10, 1475 between Stephen III of Moldavia and the Ottoman Beylerbeyi of Rumelia, Hadân Suleiman Pasha. The battle took place at Podul Înalt (the High Bridge), near the town of Vaslui, in Moldavia (now part of eastern Romania). The Ottoman troops numbered up to 120,000, facing about 40,000 Moldavian troops, plus smaller numbers of allied and mercenary troops. Stephen inflicted on the Ottomans a decisive defeat that has been described as "the greatest ever secured by the Cross against Islam," with casualties, according to Venetian and Polish records, reaching beyond 40,000 on the Ottoman side. According to the Polish chronicler Jan Długosz, Stephen did not celebrate his victory; instead, he fasted for forty days on bread and water and forbade anyone to attribute the victory to him, insisting that credit be given only to "The Lord." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Vaslui |
