On March 3 Bulgaria celebrates its National Liberation Day
On 3 March Bulgaria celebrates its National Liberation Day. Following the 1877-1878 Russo-Turkish War, the country was liberated from the Ottoman rule that had lasted for five centuries.
On that day in 1878, the San Stefano peace treaty was signed. It guaranteed Bulgarian statehood within a territory of 170,000 square kilometres (albeit as a vassal state within the Ottoman Empire, an arrangement that came to an end in 1908 with the unilateral proclamation of independence). In 1990, the 3rd of March was declared the country's national holiday with a decree signed by the State Council and the National Assembly.
The day is solemnly marked by the various institutions of the country, such as the Presidency and the Bulgarian Orthodox Church. The President of Bulgaria inspects the National Guards Unit and awards military personnel with decorations. The Church holds a solemn liturgy to honour the memory of the foreign and local fighters who had lost their lives in the liberation war.
