In the 19th century, Bulgarian nationalists began to organize, noting the decline of the Ottoman Empire and in expectation of eventual independence. Following an uprising in 1876, Bulgarian volunteer forces, with strong Russian support, defeated the Turks and were able to establish an independent state under the terms of the Treaty of San Stefano in 1878. The remaining years of the century were fairly chaotic, as the restored monarchy and newly-formed political parties jostled for position. The most important developments were the emergence of a strong socialist movement and the politicization of the rural population, organized around the Bulgarian Agrarian Union. King Ferdinand was the dominant figure in Bulgarian politics up to World War I, although was discredited thereafter, due to his support for the Germans. Government Legislative power is held by the 240-seat National Assembly, whose members are directly elected for maximum four-year terms by proportional representation. The Assembly elects a Council of Ministers, headed by the Prime Minister. The Council of Ministers assists the President of the Republic, who as head of state wields supreme executive power and who is also directly elected for a five-year term.

    Prehistory
    Primitive tribes were living on Bulgarian soil as far back as the Neolithic period (40,000-10,000 BC). Around 3000 BC the Thracian people arrived and settled in the area now known as the valley of Thrace. They lived by breeding cattle, making ceramics or working gold and copper. They carried on trade with the Dacians (Romanians), Mycennaen Greeks, Illyrians (Albanians) and the Macedonians. About 300 BC, one of the tribes, called the Odrysses, laid the foundations for the Thracian state which flourished during two centuries, despite invasions from Scythians, Sarmatians and Celts. In 29 BC the Thracian hero Spartacus resisted a Roman invasion but in 45 AD the Romans finally managed to crush resistance and the Thracian state became part of the Roman Empire. By 300 AD the weakness of the Roman Empire led to invasions from the North of Visigoths, Huns and Ostrogoths, when Thracian villages were burned and plundered. When the Roman Empire was divided in 395 AD Thrace remained under the jurisdiction of Byzantium. In the late 5th and early 6th centuries Slav tribes arrived from the North. Seven of these tribes invaded the Danube Plain which was called the Moesia Region at this time. When the Byzantines tried to reconquer this territory the Slav tribes united to resist and thus formed a Slavonic state. Around 650 AD the Bulgars, a Turkic-Tartar tribe, were forced to emigrate from the Russian Plains. One third moved South under the leadership of Tartar Khan Asparuh and settled on the Thracian plain.

    Customs and ritual dances
    Many Bulgarian customs and ritual dances have their roots in pre-Christian times and are considered to be the remains of Dionysian rites practised by the Thracians and adopted by the Slavs. Each custom or ritual dance "belongs" to a particular time of the year. The following descriptions follow the calendar sequence:
    Christmas Eve, December 24 - KOLEDOUVANE
    Carol singers called Koledari dance from house to house carrying a koledarka, which is a richly carved, decorated oak stick. They wear hats decorated with flowers and "popcorn". Wine, bread and cheese is given to them in return for their songs. Near Sofia, and in some other regions, they may be accompanied by a couple disguised as a bride and an old man who dance a ruchenitsa.
    New Year - SOUVAKARI
    Souvakari are masked dancers who wear coats made of goat skin or "tatters" and pointed hats around six feet high. They have large bells tied around their waists which clang loudly as they move. They carry wooden swords and a decorated cornel twig called a sourvachka. They "appear" in Breznik and Radomir Districts, Å opluk Region around the time of the New Year, travel in groups of seven or nine dancers from house to house and bring with them wishes for good health. They are followed by various characters such as "gods", clowns, a physician, a bride, or animals. When two groups meet they often fight a "mock" battle. This custom is of Slav origin.

With the advent of Communism, Scouting was outlawed and the resources of the Scout organizations were plundered and redistributed to the newly formed Communist youth organizations. The primary goal of these organizations, whose membership was compulsory, was the indoctrination of Bulgarian youth into Communism. To complicate matters, these organizations adopted many of the ideals of the Scout organizations they supplanted. Because of the bad experience with the Communist youth organizations, the Scouting Movement in Bulgaria is having a slow rebirth. BSO has approximately 2,800 Scouts and leaders nation-wide. This is in a country of approximately 9 million people. It is still a very small organization, with units mainly in the major cities. The whole organization is volunteer run. The BSO is open to both males and females. Bulgaria was accepted as the 151 st member of WOSM in January 1999 and officially welcomed to WOSM at the World Scout Conference in South Africa on July 25, 1999.

    History of Bulgaria
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
    The history of Bulgaria began in the 7th century CE with the arrival of the Bulgars in the Balkans . The Bulgars had been moving northwest across the Caucasus and what is now southern Russia and Ukraine ; their origin is not entirely clear. The established theory is that the Bulgars are related to the Huns , and more distantly the Turks . However, this position is increasingly being challenged by a theory claiming Aryan Pamirian origin for the Bulgars. Clues for this can be found in the advanced calendar and system of government of the early Bulgars. The Bulgars were governed by hereditary khans . There were several artistocratic families whose members, bearing military titles, formed a governing class. Bulgars were monotheistic , worshipping the Sun and a life-force. Later in the beginning in the 8th century the Bulgars in Volga Bulgaria converted to Islam . The Bulgars were warlike and spent much time on horseback , raiding neighboring tribes. In the and 7th century , the Bulgars had lived on the northern coast of the Black Sea . Under pressure from peoples further east (such as the Khazars ) one confederation of Bulgars, the Kutriguri, moved into the territory which is now
