GOD BLESS THE BULGARIAN PEOPLE WITH HEALTH, JOY, AND PROSPERITY.

Greetings from Republic of Chuvashia (Volga Bulgaria)

Very interesting! I didn't know Bulgarian history was so strange and full of migrations and colonizations! Greetings from neighboring Serbia!

I support Bulgaria. Greetings from Greece

This was quite interesting. Thanks for adding subtitles.

Yes, this is a very interesting presentation. Now, i am learning Basic Bulgarian phrases. I see that Bulgarian Language an interesting language.

I rememer when I was 7-8 years old and asked my father: Are we slavs? He replied: No, we are bulgarians.

We just found out my grandma is half Bulgarian. My mom and I were tested and have 15 to 20 percent west Asian dna ☺️☺️☺️

Now that explains when my dad was telling me that when he was in Ukraine parts some of it they spoke olden Bulgarian

Привет от волжских булгар ( татар)

Im from New Zealand. My daughter is Bulgarian Maori, probably the first intertwining of the two bloodlines in history. ( As far as I know ) My daughter is so phenomenally beautiful and intelligent, you wouldn't believe how smart and mature this 8 year old girl is unless you saw her for yourself. Piano, tennis, singing, performing arts, swimming, mathematics, I could go on, basically, anything she wants to do, she does and excels very well. Her grandparents (Bulgarian) were Gold medalists in the Seoul Olympics. My grandparents were, what you would call in English "priests" or "pastors", fully followed Jesus and his teachings. I want to know if anyone has any information on Bulgarian prophets or just anything "historically Christian". I understand the religious wars and in a video here on KZfaq (history of Bulgaria) It states Bulgaria was officially named and known as "Christian" for 200 years. Thank you, I look forward to any finger being pointed in a direction for me. :)

He mentions Alexander the Great could not defeat only the old bulgarians. But he doesn't mention that Volga Bulgaria was the only state to defeat the Mongols.

Excellent presentation. Very informative! Thank you for sharing.

PROUD BULGARIAN UP IN HERE!

Bulgarians are descendants of the Iranian Bulgars who were Turkicized in language, but genetically and culturally still completely Iranian and kept some of their Iranian language. Cumans, Avars, and Bulgars were Iranian (Sarmatian) tribes who were Turkicized, and after these groups migrated west, the remnants of their peoples who stayed in the Steppes mixed with the invading Turko-Mongols and were either assimilated or Islamized.

Is anybody here actually bulgarian such as myself?

Срам че паднахме от такава висота.

i think in the past bulgarians were related to Iranic tribes such as :sarmatians,is that right?

In india also so many villages of bulhaara and balayan and bal and bulkhiya also

Highly interesting! How much do we know about the contribution of Franjo Rački, a 19th century Croatian historian, to Bulgarian historiography?

My DNA test says I am Bulgarian. I was born in America. Hi ancestors.

Като гледам и слушам професор Божидар Димитров, лека му пръст и светла памет, чувствам гордост, че съм българин.

in the late 1950's, I was in Turkey from USA . My passport had allowed me to visit in Bulgaria but I was not paid much - Eisenhower vetoed small pay raises :)

Very interesting, so Bulgaria is an unknown ancient civilization located far away from where it is actually

Bulgarians are at the root of world history

The Volga Bulgars were a Turkic-speaking people who established the second Muslim state in Europe (after the Emirate of Córdoba) in the early fourth/tenth century and ruled over extensive lands and a wide array of people around the middle Volga and Kama Rivers between the second/ninth and early seventh/thirteenth centuries. The Bulgars acted as middlemen between Central Asian merchants and the Rus, and the northern, mainly Finno-Ugric tribes whose main trading commodity was fur, which was greatly valued as a luxury item throughout the Islamic world. *Mako, Gerald. “The Conversion of the Volga Bulgars: Aḥmad b.

Има една държава Велика много Велика казва се България 🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬❤

И от там не сме дошли, а и от там сме се върнали ;) Там където българинът е минал град е останал ;) Помнете

I wonder what will come out if I make a DNA test. I am Bulgarian a very mixed one. Maybe I have some Asian in me as well.. Hummm

every time I look for some Bulgarian history to watch all the Bulgarians say it is a lie. Well Which video is an accurate one?! Do any of you really know the truth. Its so stupid. 5 Bulgarians will say what is true and another 5 will say its lies or that some of it is wrong. My suggestion is for you lot to get this sorted

God speaks in Bulgarian language.

I'm sorry, may be i must to use or speak indonesian language : " Sedikit memberi penjelasan kepada anda bahwa tidak semua fenotip fisik orang asia adalah mongoloid ( kulit kuning, mata sipit, wajah bulat lebar, hidung pesek ada juga yang sedikit mancung, rambut hitam lurus, bertubuh pendek ), saya rasa penjelasan anda itu lebih tertuju kepada ciri fisik orang china, mongol, tibet, dan orang orang asia timur lainnya. Dalam catatan china kuno ciri ciri bangsa turki sebenarnya ( karena sebagian besar bangsa turki dahulu pernah menempati wilayah tersebut tepatnya di wilayah china uatara dan barat, seperti suku oghuz, suku uygur, suku, suku tatar, suku karluk, suku kuman , suku kipchak dan suku suku turki lainnya ) berkulit putih, kelopak mata normal tidak sipit, wajah tidak terlalu lebar namun lebih oval, hidung mancung sedang bahkan juga ada yang lebih mancung, rambut bergelombang namun juga ada yang lurus, warna rambut bervariasi ( ada yang hitam, coklat, merah bahkan pirang ), warna bola mata juga bervariasi tidak seperti kebanyakan orang asia pada umumnya ( ada yang coklat muda, abu abu, hijau, biru, almound ), sekian dulu karena ini hanya permulaan bukan berarti selesai.

Im from Krgyzstn We are Turkic people too. Sorry My English is So Bad. Bulgarain is By Turkic origin too??

Fun Fact Bulgaria is Indo European

The real Bulgarians they have nothing to do with the Slavs ..completely different race ! Today Danube Bulgarians are completely mixed , so big part of them is also Slavic but they still have the real Bulgarian line back from the old homeland!

Violin, didn't you invent the violin?

Good video! English translation is not perfect but the content is mostly historically sound. The Bulgars were definitely not Turks - they were Iranians (Persians) and not in anyway related to the Mongolian Turks. They only accepted their supremacy for political reasons and to survive. However for a very short period of time. In their country of origin - Bulchara ( the Persian province of Bactria) to this day there is clear distinction between Persians and Turko- Mongolians (who settled there at a later stage). Ask any Pashtun (biggest ethnicity in Afghanistan) if they are the same as the Khazara people (Mongolians) and they would point you to their ancient and very different cultures.

Is your mother a Thracian? :))))))

за съжаление всеки път когато България се е разцепвала, новите държави помежду си са се смятали за 'други' а в последствие 'другите' се отказват да се самонаричат Българи

Bulgars were Onogur Turks according to Bulgars🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂 Old Great Bulgaria or Great Bulgaria (Byzantine Greek: Παλαιά Μεγάλη Βουλγαρία, Palaiá Megálē Voulgaría), also often known by the Latin names Magna Bulgaria[3] and Patria Onoguria ("Onogur land"),[4] was a 7th-century state formed by the Onogur Bulgars on the western Pontic-Caspian steppe (modern southern Ukraine and southwest Russia).[5] Great Bulgaria was originally centered between the Dniester and lower Volga. Later Byzantine scholars implied that the Bulgars had previously been known as the Onogurs (Onoğur). Agathon wrote about the "nation of Onogur Bulğars"],Nikephoros I stated that Kubrat was lord of the Onogundurs, Theophanes referred to them as Onogundur Bulgars and Constantine VII remarked that the Bulgars formerly called themselves Onogundurs. Variations of the name include Onoguri, Onoghuri, Onghur, Ongur, Onghuri, Onguri, Onogundur, Unogundur, and Unokundur. There are several theories about the origin of the name Onogur. In some Turkic languages on means "10" and ğur "arrow"; and "ten arrows" might imply a federation of ten tribes, i.e. the Western Turkic Khaganate. Within the Turkic languages, "z" sounds in the easternmost languages tend to have become "r" in the westernmost Turkic languages; therefore, the ethnonym Oghuz may be the source of Oghur; that is, on Oğur would mean "ten clans of Oghuz". Old Great Bulgaria (Magna Bulgaria[29]), also known as Onoghundur-Bulgars state, or Patria Onoguria in the Ravenna Cosmography.[30][31][20] Constantine VII (mid-10th century) remarked that the Bulgars formerly called themselves Onogundurs.[32] Both names are best explained as corresponding to Onogundur, an old name in Greek sources for the Bulgars. www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/khazars Nikephoros I stated that Kubrat was lord of the Onogundurs, Theophanes referred to them as Onogundur Bulgars and Constantine VIIremarked that the Bulgars formerly called themselves Onogundurs. Variations of the name include Onoguri, Onoghuri, Onghur, Ongur, Onghuri, Onguri, Onogundur, Unogundur, and Unokundur.

My dear neighbors: all we have are the theories... we are complicated... I am glad to see how Macedonia, Serbia, Turkey etc. know better than is who are we 😀😀😀 Go and think about your origins and leave ours to us

The Turkic languages are clearly interrelated, showing close similarities in phonology, morphology, and syntax. Historically, they split into two types early on, Common Turkic and Bolgar Turkic. The language of the Proto-Bolgars, reportedly similar to the Khazar language, belonged to the latter type. Its only modern representative is Chuvash, which originated in Volga Bolgarian and exhibits archaic features. The Proto-Bulgarians had a somewhat eventful history prior to their arrival on the Balkan Peninsula. The earliest written sources indicate that they inhabited the region to the north of the Caucasus in the 4th century A.D. and had close contact with the Georgians and Armenians. They belonged to the Turkic ethno-linguistic group and their language resembled that of the Huns, Khazars, Avars and other tribes. (How the bulgarian state was founded-Dimiter Angelov) The Oghur, or Onogur or Ogur[3] languages (also known as Bulgar, Pre-Proto-Bulgar,[4]or Lir-Turkic and r-Turkic), are a branch of the Turkic language family. The only extant member of the group is the Chuvash language. The first to branch off from the Turkic family, the Oghur languages show significant divergence from other Turkic languages, which all share a later common ancestor. Languages from this family were spoken in some nomadic tribal confederations, such as those of the Onogurs or Ogurs, Bulgars, and Khazars.[5]Some scholars consider Hunnic a similar language[6] and refer to this extended grouping as Hunno-Proto-Bulgarian.[7] The only surviving language from this linguistic group is believed to be Chuvash.Harvard Professor Omeljan Pritsak in his study "The Hunnic Language of the Attila Clan" (1982)[10] concluded that the language of the Bulgars was from the family of the Hunnic languages, as he calls the Oghur languages.[11] According to Antoaneta Granberg : " the data is insufficient to clearly distinguish Huns, Avars and Bulgars one from another" - introduction, the second paragraph Bolgars are still Turk in Volga region.Mahmud al kashgari wrote bulgar language in his diwan lughat al turk before 1000 years. Even ilovelanguages made video about bulgar language(volga bulgar poet from Diwan Lughat al Turk)

We are Bulgarians.We are real warriors! We are not turks WE ARE BULGARIANS

I think Bulgars descent from North Iranian Persians who escaped the fall of the Achemidian Empire and began to live in the Caucass regions of Asia.

Where is the next episode? I want to know much about mighty Bulgars.

The great Persian scientist Abu Zayd al-Balkhi 850-934 AD Says that Bulgarians worshipped the god EDFU and his idol FA In the same text he says the Turks worshipped BIr Tengri He clearly distinguishes between Bulgarians and Turks M .

However the linguistic impact of the Iranian world on the Turkic Bulgars is indisputable. For instance the name of the founder of Danubian Bulgaria was Asparukh, which is old Iranian in origin: "The Huns, Rome and the Birth of Europe", Hyun Jin Kim, Cambridge University Press, 2013, ISBN 1107009065, p. 68.

And from this teory we get some questions. We know that Volga Bulgaria was one of the 3 most powerfull countries in the world. Why they didnt take back the lost teritory if this 2 countryes were so powerfull? Why Asparuh atack Roman Empire, when he know about the agreement? Why the belive about Tangra is found in house of Kubrat? Why no one say anything about a hudge country like that? How Asparuh lost so much of teritory on north whit such a powerfull army? And 1 very important question, why Asparuh take control of the west part of the country, when he have 3 bigger brothers?

There were 3 big migrations- 4000 years ago, befor war of Troy, then when Dacia created (approx 500 bc) and then after the christ to the Black sea where Ukraina is now. Even the Herodotus mentioned in his history that there were Tracs- alies of Troy ( and probably they set up the Troy) and after the defeat of Troy they set up the Rome. And because of the Getae (Goths, Guds, Tracs) the Bulgaria kingdom was able to born and Kievan Russia also- because the Aryans from Lithuania had the knowledge and experience and the power to create the States.

As the number of evidence of linguistic, ethnographic and socio-political nature show that Bulgars belonged to the group of Turkic peoples.[36][24][26][30] The Bulgars (also Bolgars or proto-Bulgarians[40]) were a semi-nomadic people of Turkic descent, originally from Central Asia, who from the 2nd century onwards dwelled in the steppes north of the Caucasus and around the banks of river Volga (then Itil). en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Bulgaria Bulgars (< Turkic bulgha- ‘to mix, stir up, disturb’, i.e. ‘rebels’) A Turkic tribal union of the Pontic steppes that gave rise to two important states: Danubian-Balkan Bulgaria (First Bulgarian Empire, 681-1018) and Volga Bulgaria (early 10th century-1241).

IMO there was definitely an Eastern Iranian presence in what is now Bulgaria before the Slavic people arrived. You can still see it in the language and some of the customs, even when the Bulgarians started speaking a Slavic language they still used some Eastern Iranian words. The Western Iranian words from Persian came into the language MUCH LATER via Ottoman Turkish.

Is this somewhere else in English?

Bulgaria is oldest country in Europe. Bulgaria is first national state in Europe which adopt Christianity and Bulgarian church became first national independent church in Europe in year 927. Bulgarians created Bulgarian Civilization with Bulgarian language, Bulgarian alphabet Cyrillic and Orthodox Christianity. Bulgarians spread Christianity and the Bible, translated into Bulgarian language and written in Cyrillic, among the so-called "Slavs" and incorporated most of the "Slavs" into Bulgarian civilization, including the Russians. All so-called "Slavic" languages are created on the basis of Bulgarian language. Russian language and so-called "Slavic" languages on the Balkans are dialects of Bulgarian language. Today about 300 million people in Eurasia including Russia use Bulgarian writing system Cyrillic as the official alphabet. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Bulgarian_Empire en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simeon_I_of_Bulgaria en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyrillic_script

Bulgarians were from North Caspian steppe Scythian stock that were conquered by Khazar of Turkic tribe. Proto Bulgarians ethnically were related to Daha and Parthian tribes of central Asia that ruled in Iran for centuries after Alexander's conquest of Persia and Sogdiana

So no matter who one has a child with the sons marker will always remain the same as the fathers. In this way we can tell who is what. Mixing means nothing, it does not erase the past as the past is deep in ones veins. All the Bulgar people are related as they have always been. Today just separated by borders. Greetings

The Turkic languages are clearly interrelated, showing close similarities in phonology, morphology, and syntax. Historically, they split into two types early on, Common Turkic and Bolgar Turkic. The language of the Proto-Bolgars, reportedly similar to the Khazar language, belonged to the latter type. Its only modern representative is Chuvash, which originated in Volga Bolgarian and exhibits archaic features.

if turkish people are descandes of Oghuz Khan than north macedonians are descandes of Alexandar the Great hahahhahahahhaha

According to Prof. Raymond Detrez, who is a specialist in Bulgarian history and language, such views are based on anti-Turkish sentiments and in serious scholarly circles it is well known that the Bulgar language was a Turkic one: Developing cultural identity in the Balkans: convergence vs divergence, Raymond Detrez, Pieter Plas, Peter Lang, 2005, ISBN 90-5201-297-0, p. 29

The Bulgars (also Bulghars, Bulgari, Bolgars, Bolghars, Bolgari,[1] Proto-Bulgarians[2]) were Turkic semi-nomadic warrior tribes that flourished in the Pontic-Caspian steppe and the Volga region during the 7th century. They became known as nomadic equestrians in the Volga-Ural region, but some researchers say that their ethnic roots can be traced to Central Asia.[3] During their westward migration across the Eurasian steppe, the Bulgar tribes absorbed other ethnic groups and cultural influences in a process of ethnogenesis, including Indo-European, Finno-Ugric and Hunnic tribes.[4][5][6][7][8][9] Modern genetic research on Central Asian Turkic people and ethnic groups related to the Bulgars points to an affiliation with Western Eurasian populations.[9][10][11] The Bulgars spoke a Turkic language, i.e. Bulgar language of Oghuric branch.[12] They preserved the military titles, organization and customs of Eurasian steppes,[13] as well as pagan shamanism and belief in the sky deity Tangra.[14] The Bulgars became semi-sedentary during the 7th century in the Pontic-Caspian steppe, establishing the polity of Old Great Bulgariac. 635, which was absorbed by the Khazar Empire in 668 AD. In c. 679, Khan Asparukh conquered Scythia Minor, opening access to Moesia, and established the First Bulgarian Empire, where the Bulgars became a political and military elite. They merged subsequently with established Byzantine populations,[15][16] as well as with previously settled Slavic tribes, and were eventually Slavicized, thus forming the ancestors of modern Bulgarians.[17] The remaining Pontic Bulgars migrated in the 7th century to the Volga River, where they founded the Volga Bulgaria; they preserved their identity well into the 13th century.[12] The Volga Tatars and Chuvash people claim to have originated from the Volga Bulgars.[12][18]

For those of you arguing in the comment section- here is what science has to say www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3590186/

I have a question is alexander the great bulgarian

:) Were the Bulgarians Slavs?

Lmao at all people trying to debunk the information of this video, as if you have any choice over your roots. This makes Bulgarians no different from the Macedonians in reality if this behavior is representative of their general population. The Turkic, Slavic and Thracian origin stories are all wrong and proven wrong in detail here, and you ignore all of it because the fact that you're related to some Asiatic people you used to think were Arabs or "Gypsies" upsets your Eurocentric weak minds. Dimitrov remains one of the most acclaimed historians of Bulgaria after his death, however much how of a self-employed political agent he was.

Bizant = Vízönt. magyarul vízöntő városának nevezték a Boszporusz partján lévő települést, ahol a két tenger közt átömlik a víz.

From the genetic tests I've seen Bulgarians are 39% Slavic not 20%, correct me if I error. Serbians 57% Slavic and Croatians 66%.

You know theres a diffrence between the bulgarians and bulgars right??

This video is product ot Bulgarian nationalism. Since 1989, Bulgarian nationalism continues to live off cosy reminiscences of the ‘Revival Process’ ideology. Anti-Turkish rhetoric is now reflected in the theories that challenge the thesis of Turkic origin of the Proto-Bulgars. Alongside the ‘Iranian’ or ‘Aryan’ theory, there appeared arguments favouring an autochthonous origin... The ‘parahistoric’ theories, very often politically loaded and have almost nothing to do with objective scientific research in the field of Proto-Bulgarian Studies, could be summarized in several directions:...3)‘Aryan roots’ and the ‘enigmatic Eurasian homeland’. Meanwhile, another group of authors is looking eagerly for the supposed homeland of the ancient Bulgarians in the vast areas of Eurasia, perhaps by conscious or unconscious opposition to the pro-Western orientation of modern Bulgaria. At the same time, with little regard for consistency, they also oppose the Turkic theory, probably because this is in sharp contradiction with the anti-Turkish feelings shared by nationalistic circles.

In Silesia is tale that Silesia has been founded by Bulgari. Before in Silesia was Hrobracki kraj. After bulgarian co quest name has been renamed to Shild'laśya. But some ages later bulgarian bad ruling. And Silesian rise up. Silesian defeat Bulgari and create Great Moravia with Bohems and Nitrate people. Its real? I don't know. No witted proofs. But I believe that in every story or tale is some true.

The History of Russia is, after all, quite normal! Even if it is sometimes fictional.

You guys been lied from the official history books.First all this tripes are coming from the same place where the 7 trips were living. The turm Slavic been invented in 15th century and replace the word Bulgarian.But both words mean gods people. You wander why that was done.I can gladly

Bulgars (Turkic bulgha-'to mix, stir up, disturb', i.e. 'rebels') A Turkic tribal union of the Pontic steppes that gave rise to two important states: Danubian Balkan Bulgaria (First Bulgarian Empire, 681-1018) and Volga Bulgaria (early 10th century-1241). They derived from Oghuric-Turkic tribes, driven westward from Mongolia and south Siberia to the Pontic steppes in successive waves by turmoil associated with the Xiungnu and subsequently by warfare between the Rouran/Avar and northern Wei states. in Oliver Nicholson, The Oxford Dictionary of Late Antiquity, Oxford University Press, 2018, ISBN 0192562460, p. 271..

At the time,the new Khazar qaganate was expanding westward,squeezing out the Onogurs,or Bulghars as they begin to be named. One of the Kuvrat’s sons,the Asparuch (Asparux,Isperih) now celebrated as the founder of Bulgaria,forcibly crossed to the Danube arpund 679 to occupy imperial territory Moesia after defeating the forces of Constantine IV (668-685). The event is recorded in the preserved text of a Hebrew letter of a Khazar qahan,who wrote that the Vununtur(=Onogurs=Bulghars) has fled across the Duna,the Danube. Even if numerous for the steppe,Asparuch’s pastoralist warriors and their families were of necessity relatively few as compared to the agricultural Slav population that lived south of the Danube,and thus the Turkic-speaking Bulghars were assimilated linguistically by the Slav majority to form the medieval and modern Bulgarians. This particular ethnogenesis occuree gradually over a period of more than two centuries: there was the Turkic qan (or khan) Krum (803-814),Qan Omurtag (814-831),Qan Presian (836-852),then the wan who converted Boris I (852-889);then came Tsar Symeon (893-923), Tsar Peter I (927-970),and so on.But this transformation of Turkic shamanists into Slavic Christians did nothing to diminish the warlike character of the empire’s new neighbours. Because even warlike neighbours can be useful at times,the relations between the empire and the new Bulghar qaganate encompassed every possible variation,from intimate allience to all out-war,as exemplified by the career of the Bulghar qan or khan Tervel (or Tarvel-Terbelis in our Greek sources),the successor and probably son of Asparukh who ruled for some twenty-one years within the period 695-721,extant chronologies being inconsistent. “Bulghars and Bulgarians.” The Grand Strategy of the Byzantine Empire, by EDWARD N.

Yes, I try to PREACH where it´s possible. Despite I don´t approve WIKI and similar in many cases, you can always refer to WIKI regarding 681 AD. That year was found modern Bulgaria. During that time there exist no Turks nor Turkey - only Bulgaria and Byzantium. Simple. Further, Bulgaria/Vulgaria is written on a Byzantine map already in the 2th c. AD. No Turks or Türks exist. In China, Bulgarians were known as Huns, much older than any invented Türks, who are actually descendents from a mixture between older Koreans and older Bulgars (Huns). It´s quite clear and shouldn´t be confusing. Those who try to confuse are probably TROLLS, or really stupid ppl.

You are saying Turks are/ were mongoloid , bulgars are different, you are giving reference itugur, kitugur, onogur as bulgars ..Do you really know what these words are..meaning..e.g onogur..meaning 10 uyghur , dokuzogur ..nine Uygur..these are giving the sum of uyghur tribes (turkic)who came together ..Bulgar..bolgar..Balkar..same folks..Their cousins avar..pechenek..uz( oguz) .Kuman... khipcak ,slezensky magyar hun are all Ural/ altai... turkic ..you are speaking bulgarian of today which is mostly slavic, in 6th century if it would be the same then you should say kaizer..char ..khenet..not Khan Kubat. which is turkic way to define king ..

...и разбира се един добър край!

According to Raymond Detrez, the Iranian theory is rooted in the periods of anti-Turkish sentiment in Bulgaria and is ideologically motivated.[196]

Крайно време е да спрат споровете, защото малкото което е останало е на изчезване

първо: ЩОМ ГОВОРИШ ЗА ЧИСТА НАЦИЯ НЕ четеш това което ти пиша за ЧИСТА НАЦИ МОЖЕ ДА ГОВОРИМ ОТ 6 ВЕК ПРЕДИ ТОВА НЯМАМЕ ФОРМИРАНН БЪЛГАРСКИ ЕТНОС второ: за Турците В българия съм ти дал достатачно доказателства впредишните ми постове АДЕ ЧЕТИ Мидхат Паш.Той е бил образован човек, завършил Сорбоната и в статия във френско списание през 1868 година пише: В днешните български земи има около милион, милион и нещо мюсюлманско население, което няма нищо общо с турския етнос, а това са мюсюлмани, наследници на ислямизирани, по-често насилствено, българи. АКО ИСКАШ ДА СПОРИШ СПОРИ С МИДХАТ ПАША НЕ С МЕН една от най-големите и опасни заблуди у нас е, че има някакви български турци. Първото следствие от тази измама е свързано с претенциите на Турция да брани техните интереси, което тя с превелико удоволствие прави. До степен да се е обзавела у нас със своя „пета колона” и чрез нея да оказва често силно влияние в свой интерес върху нашата външна и вътрешна политика. Трябва да отбележим, че в същата посока действа и руската дипломация, която на Балканите има за своя основна политическа линия да не допусне възраждането на Голяма България отпреди падането ни под Османско владичество. След Освобождението в Североизточна България при първото преброян;ване на населението като турци са се определили само около 4 хиляди души и 105 хиляди като татари. Впоследствие под руски натиск и главно поради користните теснопартийни интереси на българските политици тези татари са се превърнали в турци. За сведение на неизкушените в нашата истинска история, татарите само преди около 200 години са наричани карабулгар, те са наши кръвни родственици, приели исляма за разлика от нас в Дунавска България. Заселили са се в тази част на страната ни по различно време, но най-нагъсто през ХVІІ век. Т. нар. турци в Южна България и особено в Източните Родопи са потомци на ислямизирани българи пак през същото столетие. Фактът, че това е станало предимно като доброволен акт, не променя нещата. И тези хора там са потомци на българи, те са наши кръвни братя и сестри. Те са помаци, които са позабравили това, защото говорят на някакъв стар турско-български диалект. Ето го и обяснението на обстоятелството, че между българите и „българските турци” няма наслоена злоба, няма етническо напрежение, а има всички условия за разбирателство. Дели ни само вярата, но днес и това е разрешим проблем, стига да работим за общата ни родина, а не за съседна държава.

Greetings from Pirinska Macedonia!!

If the title is in English, the audio should be in English too!

When I walk around the streets, I can see completely different faces and features. I can see it among the whites in Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece, England, Spain, Germany, France and wherever I have ever been. People have different genes among their so called 'own ethnic groups'. People that identify as 'Bulgarians' not necessarily have the same genetic origin. The same goes for other ethnic groups. It is impossible for people to have 'pure' genes of a certain 'ethnic' group. 'Bulgarian' is an identity. 'Greek' is an identity - sense of belonging to something, a human need being it to be to nation, organisation, sport or team if you want. I do not like how this former communist is telling me what am I and explaining the world where do my 'ancestors' come from. 'Bulgaria' is just a name kept from 'Bulgars' - genes, language etc is absorbed from diverse other pools. No Bulgarian has exactly the same genes with other Bulgarians. The same goes for Greeks, Serbians, French, Scottish etc.. I know that what I have been told is a lie. I know that i am something much more and I am mixture of diverse genes. Go and make yourself ancestry DNA test and see that you are not as pure as you think you are - wherever you come from - you, the reader of my comment. It ends up we are diverse yet all human. I believe on science and the future - not the stories from the past that do not have legitimate scientific outlook. Blood gives more data as to what you are made up of than you, being just told what are. Furthermore - history is a curse - it promotes hatered among the human capital and does not serve as tool to teach us lessons. History should be called 'archeology' and should outline that it covers at points evident, and moreover -theoretical outlook. It should not be mandatory in any system. The educational systems could brainwash the kids in a different way to give them higher developmental perspective, especially now in a technological world where we need new developmental perspectives.
