Bulgaria is the country located in the Southern European
continent. Bulgarian is the official language of the country. The currency of
Bulgaria is Lev. Sofia is the capital city of Bulgaria. Also, it is the largest
city in the country.
“Mila Rodino” is the National Anthem of Bulgaria. The term “Mila
Rodino” means “Dear Motherland”. The National Anthem of Bulgaria is derived from
the song "Gorda Stara Planina". This original verse of the National
Anthem of Bulgaria was written by Tsvetan Radoslavov along with the music
composition. This song became the representation of Serbo-Bulgarian war.
However, the lyrics of the present version of the National
Anthem of Bulgaria were different from the original version. The lyrics were
modified several times. It is in 1990, when the lyrics of the National Anthem
of Bulgaria were changed for the last time.
There were different national anthems for the country - “Shumi
Maritsa” from 1950 to 1964, “Balgariyo mila, zemya na geroi” for some time and "Republiko
nasha, zdravey" for some other time.
