| 説明 | Entranceway to Tsarevets Fortress.Tsarevets Fortress defended Veliko Tarnova, the “City of the [Bulgarian] Tsars” that was the historical capital of the Second Bulgarian Kingdom (1185-1396 CE). Veliko Tarnova is situated on three hills, one of which is Tsarevets. The large fortress complex included a royal palace and multiple churches with the (reconstructed) 13th-century-CE Church of the Patriarchate at the highest point. The fortress succumbed to a three-month siege by Ottoman forces in 1393 CE.Bulgaria was settled by Thracians (by the 12 century BCE) who were conquered by the Persians (6th century BCE) but later regained control (5th century BCE). The Macedonians took over (4th century BCE) until succumbing to the Celts (3rd century BCE) before the Roman Empire annexed Thrace in 45 CE. The Bulgars invaded and signed a peace treaty with the Byzantine Empire [Eastern Roman Empire] in 681 CE to launch the First Bulgarian Empire. In 1018 CE the Byzantines seized back control until an uprising in 1185 CE led by Asen dynasty nobles initiated the Second Bulgarian Empire. By 1396 CE, following more than a decade of attacks, the Ottomans had enserfed the Bulgarian people who gradually supplanted their ethnic identity with a religious one, Orthodox Christianity. In 1877 CE, the Russians declared war on the Ottomans who were defeated with the aid of Bulgarian rebels. The treaty signed on 3 March 1878 CE called for an autonomous Bulgarian principality, establishing the Third (current) Bulgarian State. [March 3 is the National Liberation Day holiday today.] In 1944 CE monarch (tsar) rule was abolished. In 1946 CE, Bulgaria became a socialist state ruled by the Communist Party until a revolution in 1989 CE transformed Bulgaria into a democracy.On Google Earth:main gate 43° 4'56.49"N, 25°38'56.98"EChurch of the Patriarchate 43° 4'58.57"N, 25°39'7.97"E |
