Bulgaria’s territory in Macedonia was then overrun by the Serbs – then the rising power in the Balkans. ... Bulgaria was a stable province of the Empire, until the rise of Russia as a major player on the European scene under Catherine the Great in the 18th century; Russian strategy hinged upon its self-proclaimed role as protector of the Orthodox Christian communities within the Ottoman Empire. ... 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. ... Subsequently, Bulgaria’s dominant political figure was Todor Zhivkov, under whose leadership Bulgaria became the staunchest of Moscow’s allies. ... Throughout the first half of the 1990s, Bulgaria was wracked by political instability and labour unrest, as the country was plunged into economic crisis. ... But in 2001, Bulgarian politics were turned upside down by the former King Simeon II, who had not only returned to his former realm (to a rapturous welcome after 50 years in exile, in 1996) but set up a political party modestly entitled Simeon The Second National Movement. ... Simeon Koburgotski (derived from his family name of Saxe-Coburg) is now Bulgaria’s premier. ... The old two-party mould that dominated Bulgarian politics throughout the 1990s has been fractured but not completely broken – the BSP’s Georgi Parvanov won the latest presidential election in 2001. ...

- In succeeding centuries, Bulgaria struggled with the Byzantine Empire to assert its place in the Balkans, but by the end of the 14th century the country was overrun by the Ottoman Turks. Bulgaria regained its independence in 1878, but having fought on the losing side in both World Wars, it fell within the Soviet sphere of influence and became a People's Republic in 1946. Communist domination ended in 1990, when Bulgaria held its first multiparty election since World War II and began the contentious process of moving toward political democracy and a market economy while combating inflation, unemployment, corruption, and crime. Today, reforms and democratization keep Bulgaria on a path toward eventual integration into NATO and the EU - with which it began accession negotiations in 2000.

An overview of the case of Bulgaria, where an elite shared common ideas of modernization with the German planners and where little force was used, can be found in an article by Thomas Bohn in Beiträge zur nationalsozialistischen Gesundheits- und Sozialpolitik Nr. ...
- In Bulgaria the term of the Mafia is used for the hierarchical structures intricately interwoven with state institutions in which influential businesspeople have divided up certain markets among themselves, which they consistently defend against new competitors. ...
- The term "nouveaux riches" (Bulgarian: novobogatazhi; Russian: nuvorish) is in use in Bulgaria and also in Russia and designates those people who were in the right place at the right time and made a great deal of money by plundering the party assets at the beginning of the 90ies. The more literary term "parvenu" (Bulgarian: parvenyu) bears an even clearer negative connotation and designates those who obtained a social position that was not meant for them - with the slight difference that in Bulgaria the term is used from below and not by an aristocracy looking down on uprising petty-bourgeois. ...
- When at the end of the 80ies the "Communist" Party in Bulgaria decided with the "Lukanov Plan" to turn itself into a capitalist corporation of Western type and started to send young party cadres to ivy-league management schools in the United States, an entire new generation of businesspeople was formed. ...

- Concretely, in Bulgaria those who cannot afford a private doctor and depend on the state insurance are often treated in a lousy or even life-threatening way, receive heaps of obviously wrong diagnoses, have to run through half the city to find a syringe and a needle, have to find medication themselves on the black market or from abroad, are put off to a month later (if it so happens that they are still alive by then) because some medication is not on stock. ...
- A far more characteristic trait of business practices in Bulgaria before the Western modernization attack, a trait that must have caused much more headache to the international institutions than the planned economy as such, is the lack of written rules of business practices and the importance of personal relationships in making business deals. This system, sometimes described as "patriarchal" in discussions in Bulgaria, left no chance to Western corporations at the beginning of the 90ies to enter the Bulgarian market under their conditions. They were always dependent on intermediaries who not only spoke Bulgarian and were familiar with Bulgarian business practices, but who had also in long years of practice woven a net of contacts and relationships without which it was, at the time, impossible to do business in Bulgaria. ...
- At the beginning of 1997 the socialist government of Zhan Videnov was forced to resign by street protests - among other things the parliament building was taken by storm by protesters, which exceptionally gave Bulgaria a place on the title pages of the international media. ...
