The land that gave birth to the legendary Orpheus and Spartacus, Bulgaria is a country with a long, tumultuous and fascinating history. It has been invaded, conquered and settled by Greeks, Scythians, Romans, Byzantines, and Turks, all of whom left their indelible marks on the landscape.
More recently, Bulgaria spent four decades as a totalitarian Soviet satellite, again leaving this small Balkan nation in the shadows as far as the Western world was concerned. It's no wonder, then, that Bulgarians are so passionate about preserving their history and their culture, which has survived so often against the odds. In the last years of the 20th century, Bulgaria began opening up and is one of the newest members of the EU.
In the fourteenth century the ensign of Tsar Ivan Shishman, the most capable Bulgarian ruler, was a lion shown in gold on a red shield. This outline was fused in some early Bulgarian progressive banners raised against the Ottoman Empire in the nineteenth century.
Nevertheless, the national flag was derived from a different source the ethnic association of Bulgarians with their Slavic brothers the Russians. The Russian Horizontal tricolor of white-blue-red was modified in the Bulgarian flag by the substitution of green for blue.
From the season of its official acknowledgment (April 16, 1879) until the end of the government taking after World War II, the national banner was just the white-green-red tricolor, despite the fact that the maritime banner included a red canton with a yellow lion. At the point when the communists came to control, their ensign, with its red star and other communist images, was included the upper lift corner of the banner; four varieties of that outline existed somewhere around 1948 and 1990.
After the destruction of the socialist government, the old plain tricolor was restored on November 27, 1990. The white of the banner is said to remain for peace, adoration, and opportunity while green underlines the agricultural wealth of Bulgaria. Red is for the freedom battle and military fearlessness. Flag Company Inc decided to assist with the history development of Bulgarian Flag by providing special decals and banners to make it easy to build a bit of history right at home.
