I'll prolly be answering most qrts to this thread

For starters, do you know where it is on a map? (It's not very popular so I'd assume many don't) Do you know what the capital is? (It was actually mentioned in the Percy Jackson books lol)

What do you associate Bulgaria with?

Maybe you've heard of our yoghurt. Do you know what makes it different?

Do you know these landmarks? (the first is right next to my faculty hehe)

Do you know any famous Bulgarians? Do you recognise these people?

What about these? More history related

We get many tourists yearly at our sea resorts. Do you know any? Have you been to one?

Have you heard of Anastenaria? Do you know what it's about?

Do you know what makes our traditional music different? (Hint: it's related to the metre)

Have you heard a Bulgarian traditional song or seen a dance or before? Do you know on what occasions we dance them? Here's a pic of some traditional outfits in the meantime too (from north region where i'm from):

Recently modern folklore/EDM folklore has become really popular and tourists seem to really like it. Have you heard any before and what do you think? (I'll drop this one which is really popular this season (vocals start a minute in they're beautiful) - )

Sorry I'm a traditional dancer so I couldn't not add this dbudb okay moving on

What's your general impression of Bulgarians? Do you have any friends from here? Have you thought about visiting before? (Bonus for western europeans: why do yall hate us? genuine question)

Bulgarian oomfs if I missed something I'm sorry I tried *sips airyan*

Even though the stuff I asked might be really widely unknown I hope it was at least somewhat interesting <3 I'm really proud of my country's traditions and heritage so I try to spread it with the world! Thank you for reading and answering this thread <3
