The first known civilization in the region was that of the Thracians, whose culture reached a peak in the sixth century B.C. Because of disunity, in the ensuing centuries Thracian territory was occupied successively by the Greeks, Persians, Macedonians, and Romans. A Thracian kingdom still existed under the Roman Empire until the first century A.D., when Thrace was incorporated into the empire, and Serditsa was established as a trading center on the site of the modern Bulgarian capital, Sofia.

  • Annex REPORT for 2019 UNDER the “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY of the REPUBLIC of BULGAR
    Annex REPORT FOR 2019 UNDER THE “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA 2012 - 2020 Operational objective: A national monitoring progress report has been prepared for implementation of Measure 1.1.2. “Performing obstetric and gynaecological examinations with mobile offices in settlements with compact Roma population”. During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

  • Coal Mine Methane Country Profiles, Chapter 5, June 2015
    5 Bulgaria 5.1 Summary of Coal Industry 5.1.1 ROLE OF COAL IN BULGARIA Most of the coal consumed in Bulgaria is used for power production. A substantial portion of its thermal electric power plants, which produce more than one-half of the country’s total production of about 45 billion kilowatts, operate on domestic coal (Steblez, 2000). A reliable supply of higher- quality hard coal is, however, necessary for Bulgaria’s metallurgical industries, and such coal is obtained from as near as Ukraine and as far away as Australia (USDOE, 2004). Bulgaria’s annual coal production and consumption both remained relatively constant from 1990 through 2010, peaking in 2011, and the country is expected to remain a net coal importer (EIA, 2014). Bulgaria’s coal reserves include about 88.7 percent lignite, 10.9 percent brown coal, and 0.4 percent hard coal (Euracoal, 2014). Much of the household coal heating is with briquettes, especially in the vicinity of the state-owned briquette factory, Stara Zagora (see Figure 5-1). About 9 percent of Bulgaria’s coal production is used for making briquettes (USDOE, 2004). Table 5-1.

    Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Space Research and Technology Institute. Aerospace Research in Bulgaria. 25, 2013, Sofia APPLICATION OF AEROSPACE METHODS FOR MONITORING OF FOREST FIRES AND EVALUATION OF BURNED AREA IN HASKOVO REGION IN THE SUMMER OF 2011 Maria Dimitrova, Iva Ivanova, Mariana Zaharinova, Roumen Nedkov Space Research and Technology Institute – Bulgarian Academy of Sciences e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The most significant forest and field fires in Haskovo region in the summer of 2011 are looked through. Information about physico-geographic characteristics of the area, land cover, etc. are gathered and analyzed in GIS. Тhe location and the area affected by the largest fire are being determined based on sattelite data. An analysis of the affected area is done. Introduction Haskovo region is situated in the East part of South Bulgaria. It has an area of 5534 km2 that is 5% of the country area. In the region there are 261 urban places, arranged in 11 municipalities - Haskovo, Dimitrovgrad, Svilengrad, Lyubimets, Harmanli, Madzharovo, Simeonovgrad, Ivaylovgrad Topolovgrad, Mineral Baths and Stambolovo.
