Some Things You May Find Useful to Know…
Some things you may find useful to know… About Bulgaria Bulgaria, officially the Republic of Bulgaria is a country in southeastern Europe. It is bordered by Romania to the north, Serbia and Macedonia to the west, Greece and Turkey to the south, and the Black Sea to the east. With a territory of 110,994 square kilometers (42,855 sq mi), Bulgaria is Europe's 16th-largest country. Its population of 7.4 million people is predominantly urbanized and mainly concentrated in the administrative centers of its 28 provinces. Most commercial and cultural activities are centered on the capital and largest city, Sofia. The country is a member of the European Union, NATO, and the Council of Europe. The climate in the country is dynamic, which results from its being positioned at the meeting point of Mediterranean and continental air masses and the barrier effect of its mountains. Northern Bulgaria averages 1 °C (1.8 °F) cooler than the regions south of the Balkan mountains. Temperature amplitudes vary significantly in different areas. The lowest recorded temperature is −38.3 °C (−36.9 °F), while the highest is 45.2 °C (113.4 °F). Situated at a crossroads between civilizations, Bulgaria has more than 13 centuries of recorded history and one of the richest cultural legacies in Europe. Modern Bulgarian culture derives from three ancient civilizations: the Bulgars, then Thracians, and the Slavs. The territory was also part of the Byzantine and Ottoman empires for several centuries. Bulgarians are the main ethnic group in the country and comprise 84.8% of the population.

Acta Biologica Sibirica 7: 125–141. https://doi. org/10.3897/abs.7.e67015 Abstract Bulgarian ground beetle (Coleoptera, Carabidae) fauna is relatively well studied but there are still many species and regions in the country which are not well researched. The present study aims at complementing the data about the distribution of the carabids from the tribes Pterostichini, Spho- drini, and Platynini, containing many diverse, interesting, and endemic species. It gives new records for 67 species and 23 zoogeographical regions in Bulgaria. The material was collected in the period from 1926 to 2021 through different sampling methods. Twenty-three species are recorded for the first time in different regions. Six species are reported for the second time in the regions where they were currently collected. Thirty-one species have not been reported for more than 20 years in Eastern and Middle Stara Planina Mts., Kraishte region, Boboshevo-Simitli valley, Sandanski-Petrich valley, Lyulin Mts., Vitosha Mts., Rila Mts., Pirin Mts., Slavyanka Mts., Thracian Lowland, and Sakar-Tundzha re- gion.

About Bulgaria Bulgarian Wine
About Bulgaria Bulgaria was established in 681 and is the only European country that has not changed its name since its inception. Europe's oldest continuously inhabited city - Plovdiv - is also located in Bulgaria. Bulgaria has a rich culture influenced by Thracians, Romans, Greeks, Slavs, Byzantines and Ottomans who left multiple important cultural heritage sites and cultural footprints on the country. Bulgaria has given the world the Cyrillic alphabet used by millions of people in Eastern Europe and parts of Asia. Bulgaria also prides itself on distinct styles of singing, dancing and unique uneven rhythms found in the country's folklore, as well as being the homeland of yoghurt, the finest rose oil in the world and the starting point of winemaking in Europe - a tradition inhabited from the enigmatic Thracians more than 5 000 years ago. Bulgaria is mysterious, enchanting, unexplored, inviting and surprising. Bulgaria is a place with countless stories that hide behind each stone, tree, bridge, monument. Bulgaria is a place where the Orient meets Europe for the first time and where memories of old civilizations, cultures and traditions stretch further back than in any other European country. Bulgarian Wine Wine making in Bulgaria dates to Thracian times more than 5 000 years ago. Thracian wine was described by Homer in The Iliad (around VIII century BC) as being the finest wine. In fact, the first known “wine appellations” were established in northern Bulgaria by the Roman emperor Antonius Pius in II century AD. Later, a legend describes how the Bulgarian town of Asenovgrad was spared in 1205 during the fourth crusade because of the excellent wine that was made there.
